Calcium with mass number 112 and atomic number 48 will undergo an alpha decay to produce palladium, atomic number: 46, atomic mass: 108.

<h3>RADIOACTIVITY:</h3>

Radioactivity is the spontaneous disintegration of the atoms of certain elements called radioactive elements. The atoms of radioactive elements decay into certain particles namely: alpha, beta and gamma particles.

Alpha particle has a mass number of 4 and atomic number of 2, hence, is denoted by the following symbol: α(⁴,²).

This means that calcium with mass number and atomic number of 112 and 48 respectively will change into palladium with (112 - 4 = 108) and (48 - 2 = 46).

A TV satellite dish is designed to receive radio waves of wavelength
Verizon [17]

Answer:

4.7 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the radio wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ.............. Equation 2

Note: A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, as such it moves with a velocity of 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 0.0644 meters

Constant: v = <em>3.00 x 10⁸ m/s</em>

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.00 x 10⁸)/0.0644

f = 4.66×10⁹ Hz

f = 4.7 GHz

Two common ions of manganese are Mn2+ and Mn3+. Which binary ionic compound is likely to form? A) Mn2N3 B) MnBr4 C) MnCl D) MnO
meriva
Given that Oxygen has an oxidation state of  2 -, you can combine Mn 3+ with O 2- ions to form Mn2O3, and you can combine Mn 2+ with O 2- to form Mn2O2 which is MnO.

The other compounds imply oxidation states of N, Br and Cl that does not exist.

Therefore, the answer is the option D. MnO

The position of a certain airplane during takeoff is given by x=1/2 *bt2, where b = 2.0 m/s2 and t = 0 corresponds to the instan
Serhud [2]

Answer:

1362000 kgm/s

Explanation:

So the total mass combination of the plane and the people inside it is

M = 35000 + 160*65 = 45400 kg

After 15 seconds at an acceleration of 2 m/s2, the plane speed would be

V = 2*15 = 30 m/s

So the magnitude of the plane 15s after brakes are released is

MV = 45400 * 30 = 1362000 kgm/s

An airplane takes off from Dallas Texas to fly to new york city traveling ne for 2,760 km the Same plane returns that day to Dal
Kipish [7]
<h3>Answer</h3>

1104 km/hour

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Distance between Dallas Texas to New York = 2760 km

Time the plane took from Dallas to New York = 2 hours

Time the plane took from New York back to Dallas = 2.5 hours

Formula to use

<h3>distance = speed x time </h3>

Speed the plane took from Dallas to New York

2760 = 2 x speed

speed = 2760 / 2

          = 1380 km/hour

Speed the plane took from New York to Dallas (ROUND TRIP)

2760 = 2.5 x speed

speed = 2760 / 2.5

           = 1104 km/hour
