Answer:
n (a neutron)
Explanation:
For a chemical element:
- The lower subscript indicates the atomic number (the number of protons)
- The upper subscript indicates the mass number (the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus)
In the reaction described in the problem, we see that a gamma photon hits a nucleus of Calcium-40, which has
Z = 20 (20 protons)
A = 40 (40 protons+neutrons)
Which means that the number of neutrons is n = A - Z = 40 - 20 = 20
After the reaction, we have a nucleus of Calcium-39, which has
Z = 20 (20 protons)
A = 39 (39 protons+neutrons)
Which means that the number of neutrons is n = A - Z = 40 - 39 = 19
So, the nucleus has lost 1 neutron, which is the particle missing in the reaction.
Answer:
Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = (2975.2 - 1800) = 1175.2 m
Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = (3188.8 - 3110) = 8.8 m
Explanation:
Given the velocity and angle of shot of the projectile, one can calculate the range and maximum height attained by the projectile.
H = (v₀² Sin²θ)/2g
v₀ = initial velocity of projectile = 2.50 × 10² m/s = 250 m/s
θ = 75°, g = 9.8 m/s²
H = 250² (Sin² 75)/(2 × 9.8) = 2975.2 m
Range of projectile
R = v₀² (sin2θ)/g
R = 250² (sin2×75)/9.8
R = 250² (sin 150)/9.8 = 3188.8 m
Height of mountain = 1.80 × 10³ = 1800 m
Maximum height of projectile = 2975.2 m
Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = 2975.2 - 1800 = 1175.2 m
Distance of ship B from ship A = 2.5 × 10³ + 6.1 × 10² = 2500 + 610 = 3110 m
Range of projectile = 3188.8 m
Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = 3188.8 - 3110 = 8.8 m
<h2>
Answer: B. Gravitational potential energy </h2>
Explanation:
<em>The gravitational potential energy is the energy that a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field.
</em>
That is why this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.
In the case of the <u>Earth</u>, in which <u>the gravitational field is considered constant</u>, the value of the gravitational potential energy
will be:
Where
is the mass of the object,
the acceleration due gravity and
the height of the object.
As we can see, the value of
is directly proportional to the height.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
mas of block 
speed of block 
spring constant 
As the mass collides with the spring its kinetic energy is converted to the Elastic Potential energy of the spring
