Answer:
The answer will be <em>D</em>
Explanation:
I choose answer <em>C</em> and got it wrong on the test. Also Liquid atoms vibrate fast and slide past each other. what answer <em>C </em>shows is a gas.
Answer:
a. Mass number is the sum of number of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom.
A = p + n
Charge is a unit of matter that tells how more or less the number of electrons are present as compared to number of protons in an atom. A positive charge means the atom lacks electrons.
Gamma rays are highly energetic electromagnetic rays. They have high penetrating power and are very difficult to shield owing to high energy.
b. The compete nuclear equation is:
This is a alpha decay process because alpha particle which is Helium atom is being produced. Francium is being formed after alpha particle is emitted.
c. The complete nuclear reaction is:
This is a positron emission process where in Rubidium is being formed.
Answer:
<em>Muons reach the earth in great amount due to the relativistic time dilation from an earthly frame of reference.</em>
Explanation:
Muons travel at exceedingly high speed; close to the speed of light. At this speed, relativistic effect starts to take effect. The effect of this is that, when viewed from an earthly reference frame, their short half life of about two-millionth of a second is dilated. The dilated time, due to relativistic effects on time for travelling at speed close to the speed of light, gives the muons an extended relative travel time before their complete decay. So <em>in reality, the muon do not have enough half-life to survive the distance from their point of production high up in the atmosphere to sea level, but relativistic effect due to their near-light speed, dilates their half-life; enough for them to be found in sufficient amount at sea level. </em>
Answer: Yes and no.
Explanation: Mass is the amount of matter in an object, whereas weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. Objects on the surface of the earth have weight, although sometimes the weight is difficult to measure.
<u>Answer</u>
1.667 m/s²
Using the Newton's second law of motion;
force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum and it takes place in the direction of force.
i.e F = change in momentum
F = (mv - mu)/t
=m(v-u)/t
= ma
∴ F =ma
a = F/m
= 150/90
= 1.667 m/s²
