Answer:

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

Explanation:

given,

²¹⁴₈₄Po -----> ²¹⁰₈₂Pb + 42 He

Atomic masses: Pb-210 = 209.98284 amu

Po-214 = 213.99519 amu

He-4 = 4.00260 amu

1 kg = 6.022 × 10²⁶ amu;

NA = 6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

c = 2.99792458 × 10⁸ m/s

energy of molecule using equation

ΔE = Δm c²

Δm is mass difference and c is speed of light

Δm = 209.98284 + 4.00260 - 213.99519

Δm = - 0.00975 amu

1 amu = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

- 0.00975 amu = - 0.00975 x 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

                         = -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

total mass = 6.022 × 10²³ x -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷

                 = -0.097467 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

ΔE = -(0.097467 x 10⁻⁴) (3 x 10^8)²

ΔE = - 8.77 × 10¹¹

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

A Styrofoam slab has thickness h and density ρs. When a swimmer of mass m is resting on it, the slab floats in fresh water with
sattari [20]
 <span>A = area of styrofoam 
M = mass of stryofoam = A*h*rho_s 
m = mass of swimmer 

Total mass = m + M = m + A*h*rho_s 
Downward force = g*(total mass) = g*[m + A*h*rho_s] 

The slab is completely submerged. 
Buoyant force = g*(mass of water displaced) = g*[A*h*rho_w] 

Equate these 
g*[m + A*h*rho_s] = g*[A*h*rho_w] 
m + A*h*rho_s = A*h*rho_w 
A*h*[rho_w - rho_s] = m 
A = m/[h*(rho_w - rho_s)]</span>

Determine the centripetal force upon a 40-kg child who makes 10 revolution around the cliffhanger in 29.3 seconds.the radius of
zysi [14]

Answer:

The centripetal force acting on the child is 39400.56 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the child is, m=40\ kg

Radius of the barrel is, R=2.90\ m

Number of revolutions are, n =10

Time taken for 10 revolutions is, t=29.3\ s

Therefore, the time period of the child is given as:

T=\frac{n}{t}=\frac{10}{29.3}=0.341\ s

Now, angular velocity is related to time period as:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{0.341}=18.43\ rad/s

Now, centripetal force acting on the child is given as:

F_{c}=m\omega^2 R\\F_{c}=40\times (18.43)^2\times 2.90\\F_{c}=40\times 339.66\times 2.90\\F_{c}=39400.56\ N

Therefore, the centripetal force acting on the child is 39400.56 N.

Nisha was making a list of things that are obtained from plants and Amol was making a list of things that can dissolve in water.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Sugar

Explanation:

Nisha's list:                               Amol's list

  Jute                                          Vinegar

  Wood                                       Lemon juice

  Rubber                                   Cooking soda

Nisha's list is made up of things that can be derived from plants. From the list given, oil, sugar and cotton can also be obtained from plants.

Most plant materials are organic matter.

Amol's list is made up of things that can dissolve in water. Sugar and table salt can also be dissolved in water.

Water is able to dissolve these materials because they are polar compounds. One rule of solubility is that like dissolves like.

New list:

Nisha's list:                               Amol's list

  Jute                                          Vinegar

  Wood                                       Lemon juice

  Rubber                                   Cooking soda

  Sugar                                       Sugar

                                   

Only sugar from the list can be added to both lists. It can be obtained from plant and can also dissolve in water.

The loudness of a sound is inversely proportional to the square of your distance from the source of the sound. if your friend is
kirill [66]
Let loudness be L, distance be d, and k be the constant of variation such that the equation that would best represent the given above is,
                    L = k/(d^2)
For Case 1,
                       L1 = k/(d1^2)
For Case 2,
                       L2 = k/((d1/4)^2)
For k to be equal, L1 = 16L2. 
Therefore, the loudness at your friend's position is 16 times that of yours.
