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).

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

\vec{L}=-30\frac{kgm^2}{s}\hat{k}

Explanation:

In order to calculate the angular momentum of the particle you use the following formula:

\vec{L}=\vec{r}\ X\ \vec{p}       (1)

r is the position vector respect to the point (0 , 5.0), that is:

r = 0m i + 5.0m j    (2)

p is the linear momentum vector and it is given by:

\vec{p}=m\vec{v}=(2.0kg)(3.0m/s)(\hat{i+\hat{j}})=6\frac{kgm}{s}(\hat{i}+\hat{j})   (3)

the direction of p comes from the fat that the particle is moving along the i + j direction.

Then, you use the results of (2) and (3) in the equation (1) and solve for L:

\vec{L}=-30\frac{kgm^2}{s}\hat{k}

The angular momentum is -30 kgm^2/s ^k

Which statement best describes how the period and frequency of electromagnetic waves change between gamma rays and microwaves?
Dimas [21]
On an electromagnetic spectrum, one of its noticeable trends is that the wavelength increases with decreasing energy and the wavelength decrease with increasing energy. Furthermore, gamma rays have high energy and short wavelengths while microwaves have low energy and long wavelengths.

weqwewe [10]

Answer

Correct Answer is B,D, F and G

Explanation:

If a kid has any type of delays in his physical or mental growth then he need intervention service.

For example if a kid is not able to walk after 18 month, if a kid is not able to speak properly after 3 years, if a kid of 5 years age has lack of response to typical efforts to engage him in an interaction then these kids need intervention service.
