Answer:

Here, he is able both to share his own suffering and—in a way that Mammy cannot—insist on his love for Laila. Babi's dream for leaving Afghanistan is, ironically, based in his love for the country—a love he thinks can be better kept alive by continuing to celebrate its culture and cuisine abroad.JThe nucleus of some isotopes will spontaneously undergo nuclear decay. These isotopes are said to be radioactive. What causes the nucleus of an isotope to be radioactive?

(please help i genuinely cant find out why)Babi had wanted Laila and Tariq to understand their country's living, breathing heritage—a heritage quite apart from the violence and turmoil of the national wars. The Buddhas, testimony to an ancient community of monks that lived in caves within the cliffs, symbolize the cultural richness of this national heritageAs an unstable atom tries to reach a stable form, energy and matter are released from the nucleus. This spontaneous change in the nucleus is called radioactive decay. When there is a change in the nucleus and one element changes into another, it is called transmutation.Carbon-14 is unstable and undergoes radioactive decay with a half-life of about 5,730 years (meaning that half of the material will be gone after 5,730 years). This decay means the amount of carbon-14 in an object serves as a clock, showing the object's age in a process called “carbon dating.”Nuclear decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom is unstable and spontaneously emits energy in the form of radiation. The result is that the nucleus changes into the nucleus of one or more other elements. These daughter nuclei have a lower mass and are more stable (lower in energy) than the parent nucleus.

How do you label <br> Time= energy • power
Lana71 [14]

First of all, that equation is not correct, which may be the reason
that you're having trouble assigning units to the quantities.

Power is defined as [energy / time],  so  [Energy] = [ power x time ],
and
         [Time] = [ energy / power ].

Unit-wise, these equations are correct just as they appear here,
with no proportionality constants or conversion factors, when ...

[ Power ] = watts
[ Energy ] = joules
[ Time ] = seconds .

Two observers in different inertial reference frames moving relative to each other at nearly the speed of light see the same two
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is d Both the observer's are correct

Explanation:

We know by postulates of relativity that laws of physics are same in different inertial frames.

Thus for each of the frames they make observations related to their frames and since the observations are true for their individual frames they both are correct. But when we compare the two frames we need to use transformation equations to compare both the results.

For each of the cases listed below, decide whether or not the motion described is an example of acceleration: (T/F)
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

1. True

2. True

3. False

4. False

5. True

6. False

Explanation:

Acceleration: It refers to the change in velocity/speed of an object with respect to time. When the speed increases with time we call it acceleration and when its decreases it is called as deceleration.  Let us analyze each instance individually:

1. When roller coaster starts to roll down the track its speed will increase with time. That means it is accelerating.

2. When the ball reaches at the peak of its trajectory, it comes to a stop for a fraction of a second that means it decelerates.

3. Since the velocity remains constant there is no acceleration.

4. Since the speed is no changing with time, there is no acceleration.

5. Since the moving plane comes to a stop, it is a case of deceleration.

6. Since the truck is moving at a constant speed so the acceleration is zero.

In which list below do the experimental steps appear in the order in which they are done?
fgiga [73]
The answer is B . You begin with a purpose for the lab, then hypothesize on what you believe will happen. Next, follow the procedures. This is always the last step, Anatoly did. Reflect upon you hypothesis, did the lab support or disprove your hypothesis. Include observations you have made. Identify errors.
