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 - +.

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is v = 1/ κμ0ε0 , where κ is the dielectri

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

$v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is given by :

$v=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{k\mu_o\epsilon_o}}$

Where

k is the dielectric constant of the substance.

v is the speed of light in water

$c=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1.78\times 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}$

$v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

So, the speed of light in water is $2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

A particle, whose acceleration is constant, is moving in the negative x direction at a speed of 4.91 m/s, and 12.9 s later the p

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of particle in negative x direction= 4.91 m/s

Time = 12.9 s

Final velocity of particle in positive x direction= 7.12 m/s

Before 12.4 sec,

Velocity of particle in negative x direction= 5.32 m/s

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using equation of motion

$v = u+at$

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

Where, v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time

Put the value into the equation

$a=\dfrac{7.12-(-4.91)}{12.9}$

$a=0.933\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the initial speed of the particle

Using equation of motion again

$v=u+at$

$u=v-at$

Put the value into the formula

$u=-5.321-0.933\times12.4$

$u=-16.9\ m/s$

Hence, The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.

an object of mass m is traveling at constant speed v in a circular path of radius r. how much work is done by the centripetal fo

vlada-n [284]

The work done is by the centripetal force on mass m during an angular displacement of 2π revolutions mv²2π /r J

Centripetal force - a force acts on an moving object in circular path.

the centripetal force is given by

F= mv²/r (equation1)

Work done is given by

W = Fd (equation 2)

d = 2π

work is done by the centripetal force on mass m during an angular displacement of 2π revolutions is given by:

to calculate work done using equation 1 in 2 we get

W = mv² d/r

W = mv² × 2π /r J

The work done is by the centripetal force on mass m during an angular displacement of 2π revolutions mv²2π /r J

sveticcg [70]

Given

v = 343 m/s

ac = 5g

ac = 5*9.8 m/s^2

ac = 49 m/s^2

where,

v: velocity

ac = centripetal aceleration

Procedure

We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration ac; centripetal means “toward the center” or “center seeking”.

Formula

$\begin{gathered} a_c=\frac{v^2}{r} \\ r=\frac{v^2}{a_c} \\ r=\frac{(343m/s)^2}{49m/s^2} \\ r=2401\text{ m} \end{gathered}$

The minimum radius not to exceed the centripetal acceleration is 2401 m.
