Increases

The pulley is normally fixed to a support above the load. The load is tied to one end of the rope and the effort is applied at the other end. Such a pulley makes our work easier by simply changing the direction of the force, i.e. a load is lifted up using a downward effort.

What is the product if an atom of Po-209<br> undergoes alpha decay?

g100num [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Lead-205 (Pb-205)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

An atom of Po-209

We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;

Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.

The equation for the decay is;

²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He

Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.

Which phrases describe clastic sedimentary rocks? Check all that apply.

Romashka [77]

Explanation:

A clastic sedimentary rock is a rock that is formed from pre-existing rock materials and minerals. This materials have been transported to their new positions by the agents of denudation.

Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of rock fragments predominantly.
The matrix is usually remnants of other rocks.
A cementing material can form between clasts and holds them in place. Cements are usually iron oxides, calcite e.t.c.
These rock types are usually formed from mechanincal weathering of rocks
Mechanical weathering breaks down rocks into chunks.
Examples are breccia, conglomerates, e.t.c.
