Answer: Radioactive nucleus.

Explanation: First, we can define the radiation as the emanation of particles or photons, for example, a flashlight is radiating photons when it is turned on.

So a neutron that emanates particles or photons when change form, is a nucleus that radiates, and those are called "radioactive nucleus"

Where radioactive implies that there is a presence of radiation in some way. In this case, the radiation is caused because the nucleus goes from an energetic state to other with lower energy, and that energy must be dissipated in some way, in this case, in form of radiation.

Answer:Radioactive

Explanation:

The radioactive nucleus is the one which does not has enough binding energy to hold the nucleus in a stable state and thus radiates either electron or proton to become a stable element.

A radioactive element is formed when after billions of years such as uranium and thorium. The stability of the nucleus depends upon the opposition of attractive and repulsive force among the nucleus.

babunello [35]

Answer:

v= 2413.5 m/s

Explanation:

maximum change of speed of rocket

=(initial exhaust velocity)×ln [(initialmass/finalmass)]

let initial mass= m

final mass = m-m(4/5) = m/5

[since the 80% of mass which is fuel is exhausted]

V-0 = 1500 ln (1/0.2)

V= 1500×1.609 = 2413.5 m/s

therefore, its exhaust speed v= 2413.5 m/s

gulaghasi [49]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

  The correct answer is option c

Explanation:

Faraday states that when there is a change in magnetic field of a coil of a wire, it means that there exist an emf in the circuit which in induced due to the change in the magnetic flux

From the question  two separate but nearby coils are mounted along the axis. First coil is connected to the power supply and the current flow is controlled by the supply.When the current alternates, it would produce magnetic field ,also the second coil is connected to an ammeter which indicates the current that is flowing in it when current in the first coil changes

This magnetic field that is produce would cause a change flux which would induce current in the second coil so the ammeter would indicate current flow in the second coil

a is incorrect because the current in fir coil is not change hence flux won't change therefore current is is not induced in second coil

This is the same reason b is incorrect

d is incorrect due to the fact that when the second coil is connected to a power supply by rewiring it to be in series with first coil the law of electromagnetism would no longer hold so he ammeter would show no reading

DerKrebs [107]

Correct answer choice is :


C) A jar with snails crawling on living plants


Explanation:


By using the power of sunlight, plants can change carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen in a method described photosynthesis. As photosynthesis needs sunlight, this method only occurs during the day. We usually like to think of this as plants `exhaling in carbon dioxide and `breathing out oxygen. Gas transfer between Alveolar Spaces and Capillaries. The role of the respiratory system is to transfer two gases, oxygen and carbon dioxide. The transfer takes place in the millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that surround them.

A cell membrane consists of an inner and outer wall separated by a distance of approximately 10nm. Assume that the walls act lik
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The options are approximations of the exact answers:

A) 1\times10^6N/C

B) 2\times10^{-13}N

C) 1\times10^{-2}V

D) Toward the inner wall

E) 3\times10^{-17}J

Explanation:

A) The electric field in a parallel plate capacitor is given by the formula E=\frac{\sigma}{k\epsilon_0}, where \epsilon_0=8.85\times10^{-12}C/Vm and in our case \sigma=10^5C/m^2 and, for air,k=1.00059, so we have:

E=\frac{10^5C/m^2}{(1.00059)(8.85\times10^{-12}C/Vm)}=1.13\times10^6N/C

B) The K+ ion has one elemental charge excess, so its charge is q=1.6\times10^{-19}C, and the force a charge experiments under an electric field E is given by F=qE, so we have:

F=(1.6\times10^{-19}C)(1.13\times10^6N/C)=1.81\times10^{-13}N

C) The potential difference between two points separated a distance d under an uniform electric potential E is given by \Delta V=dE, so we have:

\Delta V=(10\times10^{-9}m)(1.13\times10^6N/C)=1.13\times10^{-2}V

D) The electic field goes from positive to negative charges, so it goes towards the inner wall.

E) The work done by an electric field through a potential difference \Delta V on a charge Q is W=Q\Delta V, and is equal to the kinetic energy imparted on it, so we have:

K=(3\times10^{-15}C)(1.13\times10^{-2}V)=3.39\times10^{-17}J
