What happens in a nucleus during beta decay

Physics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]3 years ago
7 0

The number of protons plus the number of neutrons decreases

Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other. In beta minus decay, a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino: n Æ p + e - +.

If a pair of shoes with a mass of 0.5 kg weigh 0.3 N, what is the strength of
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The strength of gravity on Pluto is 0.6 m/s²

Explanation:

The given mass of the shoe = 0.5 kg

The weight of the shoe (on Pluto), W = 0.3 N

Therefore, given that weight, W = Mass × The acceleration due to gravity, We have;

The strength of gravity = The force gravity applies to each unit of mass = The acceleration due to gravity (in m/s²)

The weight of the shoe, W = The mass of the shoe × The strength of gravity on Pluto

Substituting the known values, gives;

0.3 = 0.5 × The strength of gravity on Pluto

∴ The strength of gravity on Pluto = 0.6 m/s².

Your neighbor is riding her bike around the block. When she slows down and turns a corner, what changes about her?.
Ann [662]

Answer:

nothing

Explanation:If you ride a bike around the block and return to the exact point where you started, your displacement is zero.

By definition, displacement involves changing an object from its original position. No matter how far or for how long a body moves, if it returns to the position it started from, it has not been displaced at all. This means that the body has zero displacements.

Answer:

James Prescott Joule

James Prescott Joule, (born December 24, 1818, Salford, Lancashire [now in Greater Manchester], England—died October 11, 1889, Sale, Cheshire), English physicist who established that the various forms of energy—mechanical, electrical, and heat—are basically the same and can be changed one into another.James Prescott Joule experimented with engines, electricity and heat throughout his life. Joule's findings resulted in his development of the mechanical theory of heat and Joule's law, which quantitatively describes the rate at which heat energy is produced from electric energy by the resistance in a circuit.
