Beta emission is occurring in the given nuclear reaction.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
In this equation, the reactant is the Thorium atom, which is reduced to palladium. As the atomic number get decreased by one, so an electron will be emitted. This process of emission of electrons by radiation or decaying the reactant nuclei to form a new product nuclei is termed as beta emission.
So, the electrons are generally termed as beta particles while the positrons are termed as positive beta particles. So this is a kind of radioactive reactions where the reactant changes to new element by releasing an electron and thus there is a change in the atomic number of the product by one.
Answer:
0.176m from the flagpole, westward.
Explanation:
Let the Eastward be the positive direction. So initially runner A is at position -6km, running with velocity of 9km/h while runner B is at position 5km running at a velocity of -8km/h. We can conduct the following equation for their distances over the same time t
When A an B meets, they are at the same position and at the same time. So
So where they meet is 0.176m from the flagpole, westward.
Answer:
The vulture loses 6.1 m height
Explanation:
Please see the attached figure.
The horizontal distance and the loss of height form a 90º triangle.
The loss of height is the side opposite the given angle (3.5º) and the 100 m horizontal distance is adjacent the angle.
Then, using trigonometric rules:
(1) sin 3.5º = h / hyp
(2) cos 3.5º = distance / hyp
where
h = height lost during the flight.
hyp = hypotenuse of the triangle
Using (2) we can calculate the hypotenuse:
cos 3.5º = 100 m / hyp
hyp = 100 m / cos 3.5º = 100.2 m
with the hypotenuse we can now calculate the loss of height using (1):
sin 3.5º = h / hyp
sin 3.5º = h / 100.2 m
sin 3.5º * 100.2 m = h
<u>h = 6.1 m</u>
( very modest drop in height indeed!)
