Since the 2-watt jobber has to dissipate twice as much power as the smaller unit I would expect it to have double the surface area. So if they are the usual cylindrical striped resistors then the larger one could have either double the length or else 1.4 times the radius of the smaller one.

The reaction energy of a reaction is the amount of energy released by the reaction. It is found by determining the difference in
solmaris [256]

Answer: the correct answer is 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

Explanation:

Use Energy Conservation. By ``alpha decay converts'', we mean that the parent particle turns into an alpha particle and daughter particles. Adding the mass of the alpha and daughter radon, we get

m = 4.00260 u + 222.01757 u = 226.02017 u .

The parent had a mass of 226.02540 u, so clearly some mass has gone somewhere. The amount of the missing mass is

Delta m = 226.02540 u - 226.02017 u = 0.00523 u ,

which is equivalent to an energy change of

Delta E = (0.00523 u)*(931.5MeV/1u)

Delta E = 4.87 MeV

Converting  4.87 MeV to Joules

1 joule [J] = 6241506363094 mega-electrón voltio [MeV]

4 mega-electrón voltio = 6.40870932 x 10^(-13) joule

4.87 mega-electrón voltio = 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Torque τ =w ×0 = 0

Explanation:

We know that the torque is given by the product of the force and perpendicular distance between the force and the axis.

Here the gravity force act at the center and the rotational axis is also passing through the center.

Therefore the perpendicular distance between the force and the rotational axis would be zero.

Hence the torque will be

Torque = Force × Perpendicular distance

Torque = mg×0 = 0

Therefore the torque would be zero.
