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

What principles of science (like facts, laws, and theories) might help explain why similar investigations conducted in many part
natulia [17]

Answer:

Reproducibility of research

Explanation:

The principle of science that explains why similar experimental investigations conducted in different parts of the world could result in the same outcome is referred to as reproducibility.

<em>A good research or experiment in science must be reproducible, otherwise, the outcome of such an experiment might become inadmissible within the scientific community. It is a core principle of the scientific method that similar results should be obtained when an experiment or observational study conducted in one place is repeated in another place with the same procedure. Hence, an experiment must be reproducible in science in order for the outcome of such an experiment to be part of the general scientific knowledge. </em>

A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

A) W_{ff} =-744.12J

B) F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy = 112.75N

C) F_{f2}=207.58N

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The full question was:

<em>A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is vf = 6.2 m/s.  </em>

<em>Part (a) Write an expression for the work, Wf, done by the friction force between the ramp and the skateboarder in terms of the variables given in the problem statement.  </em>

<em>Part (b) The ramp makes an angle θ with the ground, where θ = 30°. Write an expression for the magnitude of the friction force, fr, between the ramp and the skateboarder.  </em>

<em>Part (c) When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, he continues moving with the speed vf onto a flat surface covered with grass. The friction between the grass and the skateboarder brings him to a complete stop after 5.00 m. Calculate the magnitude of the friction force, Fgrass in newtons, between the skateboarder and the grass.</em>

For part A), we make a balance of energy to calculate the work done by the friction force:

W_{ff}=\Delta E

W_{ff}=1/2*m*vf^2-m*g*hy

W_{ff}=-744.12J

For part B), we use our previous value for the work:

W_{ff}=-F_f*(hy/sin\theta)   Solving for friction force:

F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy

F_f=112.75N

For part C), we first calculate the acceleration by kinematics and then calculate the module of friction force by dynamics:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2*a*d

Solving for a:

a=-3.844m/s^2

Now, by dynamics:

|F_f|=|m*a|

|F_f|=207.58N

Boiling water in a pan is a good example of convection because___.
belka [17]
Convection means that hotter and less dense fluids have a tendency to rise while colder and more dense fluids sink.

The answer would be (A)
Hot water is denser than cold water and so hot water will be above the cold water.

If an electronic circuit experiences a loss of 3 decibels with an input power of 6 watts, what would its output power be, to the
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Output power of the circuit is 3 Watt.

Given:

loss in decibles = 3 dB

Input power = 6 Watt

To find:

Output power = ?

Formula used:

Output power = Input power × loss in ratio

Solution:

3 dB loss = 0.5 ratio

Output power is given by,

Output power = Input power × loss in ratio

Output power = 6 × 0.5

Output power = 3 Watt

Thus, output power of the circuit is 3 Watt.

If a young protostar with a disk is rotating and shrinking. how much faster is it rotating after its size has decreased by a fac
maks197457 [2]
In this system we have the conservation of angular momentum: L₁ = L₂
We can write L = m·r²·ω

Therefore, we will have:
m₁ · r₁² · ω₁ = m₂ · r₂² · ω₂

The mass stays constant, therefore it cancels out, and we can solve for ω<span>₂:
</span>ω₂ =  (r₁/ r₂)² · ω<span>₁
     
Since we know that r</span>₁ = 4r<span>₂, we get:
</span>ω₂ =  (4)² · ω<span>₁
     = 16 </span>· ω<span>₁

Hence, the protostar will be rotating 16 </span><span>times faster.</span>
