The student 2 did the MOST work because he pushed the box to a greater height.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Force applied by Student 1 = 500 N</em>
  • <em>Height of table for student 1 = 1.2 m</em>
  • <em>Height of ramp for student 2 = 5 m</em>

The work done by student 1 is calculated as follows;

Work = P.E = mgh

P.E = 1.2mg

The work done by the student 2 is calculated as;

P.E = 5mg

where;

  • <em>m </em><em>is the </em><em>mass </em><em>of the box</em>

Thus, we can conclude that the student 2 did the MOST work.

When the daughter nucleus produced in a radioactive decay is itself unstable, it will eventually decay and form its own daughter
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

4.981 MeV

Explanation:

The quantity of energy Q can be calculated using the formula

Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²

Atomic Mass of thorium = 232.038054 u, atomic of Radium = 228.0301069 u and mass of Helium = 4.00260. The difference of atomic number and atomic mass  between the thorium and radium ( 232 - 228)  and ( 90 - 88)  show α particle was emitted.

1 u = 931.494 Mev/c²

Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²

Q = ( mass of thorium - ( mass of Radium + mass of Helium ) )× c²

Q = 232.038054 u - ( 228.0301069 + 4.00260) × c²

Q = 0.0053471 u × c²

replace 1 u = 931.494 MeV/ c²

Q = 0.0053471 × c² × (931.494 MeV / c²)

cancel c²  from the equation

Q = 0.0053471 × 931.494 MeV = 4.981 MeV

Shari uses the data in the table to predict how her weight on Venus would compare with her weight on Earth.
spin [16.1K]

Answer :  <em>Her weight is lower on Venus because the acceleration due to gravity is lower.</em>

Explanation :

Venus is also called as Earth's twin. This is because both the mass and the size of Earth and Venus are almost same. The acceleration due to gravity on earth is 9.8\ m/s^2 while on Venus is 8.87\ m/s^2.

So, when Shari measure her weight on Venus she found her weight is lower on Venus. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is lower on the surface of Venus as compared to the Earth.

Since,    w=mg

i.e. weight depends on g.

<em>So, correct prediction is (b)</em>

Which best describes a major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes? they are centered at the poles?
Arturiano [62]
<span>A major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes is that they are located in the same geographic area. Most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.</span>
