Answer:
Answer A : Fusion followed by beta decay (electron emission)
Explanation:
Notice that you want the Atomic number to increase, that is the number of protons in a nucleus. So if all four cases given experience the same fusion of nuclei, the only one that net increases the number of protons in the last stage, is the reaction that undergoes a beta decay (with emission of an electron) thus leaving a positive imbalance of positive charge (proton generated in the beta decay of a neutron).
Therefore, answer A is the correct one.

If the x-position of a particle is measured with an uncertainty of 1.00×10-10 m, then what is the uncertainty of the momentum in this same direction? (Useful constant: h-bar = 1.05×10-34 Js.)
Answer:
The uncertainty in momentum is 5.25x 10^25Jsm
Explanation:
We know that
h bar = h/2π
So
1.05x 10^34=h/2pπ
h=1.05x 10^ 34(2π)=6.597x 10^-34Js
dp=(6.597x10^-34/4pπ)/(1x10^-10)
=5.25x10^-25 Jsm

The Curiosity rover now on Mars analyzed rocks and found magnesium to have the following isotopic composition.
79.70% Mg-24 (23.9872 amu), 10.13% Mg-25 (24.9886 amu), and 10.17% Mg-26 (25.9846 amu).
A. How many neutrons are in Mg-25?
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
Answer:
A. number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.
The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element
i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12
The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Given that the mass number of Mg = 25
Then;
25 = 12 + number of neutrons
25 - 12 = number of neutrons
13 = number of neutrons
number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.
Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}[/tex]
The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.
There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
An unpolarized beam of light with an intensity of 4000 W/m2 is incident on two ideal polarizing sheets. If the angle between the two polarizers is 0.429 rad, what is the emerging light intensity
Answer:
The intensity is [tex]I_2 = 1654 \ W/m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The intensity of the unpolarized light is [tex]I_o = 4000 \ W/m^2[/tex]
The angle between the ideal polarizing sheet is [tex]\theta = 0.429 \ rad = 0.429 * 57.296 = 24.58^o[/tex]
Generally the intensity of light emerging from the first polarizer is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_1 = \frac{4000}{2}[/tex]
[tex]I_1 = 2000 \ W/m^2[/tex]
Then the intensity of incident light emerging from the second polarizer is mathematically represented by Malus law as
[tex]I_2 = I_1 cos^2 (\theta )[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_2 = 2000 * [cos (24.58)]^2[/tex]
[tex]I_2 = 1654 \ W/m^2[/tex]

Answer:
The rotational kinetic energy is [tex]K = 2116.3 \ J[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The moment of inertia is [tex]I = 0.35 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
The number of revolution is N = 70 revolution
The time taken is t = 4.0 s
Generally the angular velocity is mathematically represented as
[tex]w = \frac{2 \pi N }{t }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]w = \frac{2* 3.142 * 70 }{4 }[/tex]
[tex]w = 109.97 \ rad/s[/tex]
The rotational kinetic energy K i mathematically represented as
[tex]K = \frac{1}{ 2} * I * w^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]K = \frac{1}{ 2} * 0.35 * (109.97)^2[/tex]
[tex]K = 2116.3 \ J[/tex]
Two long straight wires carry currents perpendicular to the xy plane. One carries a current of 50 A and passes through the point x = 5.0 cm on the x axis. The second wire has a current of 80 A and passes through the point y = 4.0 cm on the y axis. What is the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the origin?
Answer:
450 x10^-6 T
Explanation:
We know that the magnetic of each wire is derived from
ByB= uoi/2pir
Thus B1= 4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x50/( 2 x 3.142x 0.05)
= 0.2 x 10^ -3T
B2=
4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x80/( 2 x 3.142x 0.04)
= 0.4 x 10^ -3T
So
(Bnet)² = (Bx)² + ( By)²
= (0.2² + 0.4²)mT
= 450 x10^-6T
The magnitude of magnetic field at the origin is required.
The magnitude of resulting magnetic field at origin is [tex]447.2\ \mu\text{T}[/tex]
x = Location at x axis = 5 cm
y = Location at y axis = 4 cm
[tex]I_x[/tex] = Current at the x axis point = 50 A
[tex]I_y[/tex] = Current at the y axis point = 80 A
[tex]\mu_0[/tex] = Vacuum permeability = [tex]4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ \text{H/m}[/tex]
Magnitude of the magnetic field is given by
[tex]B=\dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r}[/tex]
Finding the net magnetic field using the Pythagoras theorem
[tex]B^2=B_x^2+B_y^2\\\Rightarrow B^2=\left(\dfrac{\mu_0I_x}{2\pi x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\mu_0I_y}{2\pi y}\right)^2\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{I_x}{x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{I_y}{y}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}}{2\pi}\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{50}{0.05}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{80}{0.04}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow B=0.0004472=447.2\ \mu\text{T}[/tex]

Explanation:
"Determine the magnitude of the net force of gravity acting on the Moon during an eclipse when it is directly between Earth and the Sun."
Answer:
Net force = 2.3686 × 10^(20) N
Explanation:
To solve this, we have to find the force of the earth acting on the moon and the force of the sun acting on the moon and find the difference.
Now, from standards;
Mass of earth;M_e = 5.98 × 10^(24) kg
Mass of moon;M_m = 7.36 × 10^(22) kg
Mass of sun;M_s = 1.99 × 10^(30) kg
Distance between the sun and earth;d_se = 1.5 × 10^(11) m
Distance between moon and earth;d_em = 3.84 × 10^(8) m
Distance between sun and moon;d_sm = (1.5 × 10^(11)) - (3.84 × 10^(8)) = 1496.96 × 10^(8) m
Gravitational constant;G = 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²
Now formula for gravitational force between the earth and the moon is;
F_em = (G × M_e × M_m)/(d_em)²
Plugging in relevant values, we have;
F_em = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 5.98 × 10^(24) × 7.36 × 10^(22))/(3.84 × 10^(8))²
F_em = 1.9909 × 10^(20) N
Similarly, formula for gravitational force between the sun and moon is;
F_sm = (G × M_s × M_m)/(d_sm)²
Plugging in relevant values, we have;
F_se = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 1.99 × 10^(30) ×
7.36 × 10^(22))/(1496.96 × 10^(8))²
F_se = 4.3595 × 10^(20) N
Thus, net force = F_se - F_em
Net force = (4.3595 × 10^(20) N) - (1.9909 × 10^(20) N) = 2.3686 × 10^(20) N
The temperature of the hot spots caused by the impact of transferred matter onto the surface of a pulsar can be 108 K. What is the peak wavelength in the blackbody spectrum of such a spot, and in what range of the electromagnetic spectrum does it occur
Given that,
Temperature = 10⁸ K
We need to calculate the peak wavelength in the blackbody spectrum
Using formula of peak wavelength
[tex]peak\ wavelength = \dfrac{2.898\times10^{-3}}{T}[/tex]
Where, T= temperature
Put the value into the formula
[tex]peak\ wavelength = \dfrac{2.898\times10^{-3}}{10^{8}}[/tex]
[tex]peak\ wavelength = 2.90\times10^{-11}\ m[/tex]
[tex]peak\ wavelength = 290\ nm[/tex]
This range of wavelength is ultraviolet.
Hence, The peak wavelength in the blackbody spectrum is 290 nm and the range of wavelength is ultraviolet electromagnetic spectrum .
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?
Answer:
6000 counts per secondExplanation:
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1
In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;
x count per second = 3 meter ... 2
Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter
x counts per second = 3 meter
Cross multiply to get x
2000 * 3 = 1* x
6000 = x
This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample
A square loop 16.0 cm on a side has a resistance of 6.35 Ω . It is initially in a 0.510 T magnetic field, with its plane perpendicular to B , but is removed from the field in 40.5 ms.
Required:
Calculate the electric energy dissipated in this process.
Answer:
Explanation:
change in magnetic flux = .16 x .16 x .510 - 0
= .013056 weber .
rate of change of flux = change in flux / time
= .013056 / 40.5 x 10⁻³
= .32237
voltage induced = .32237 V
electrical energy dissipated = v² / R where v is voltage , R is resistance
= .32237² / 6.35
= 16.36 x 10⁻³ J .

The resistor used in the procedures has a manufacturer's stated tolerance (percent error) of 5%. Did you results from Data Table agree with the manufacturer's statement? Explain.
Resistor Measured Resistance
100 99.1
Answer:
e% = 0.99% this value is within the 5% tolerance given by the manufacturer
Explanation:
Modern manufacturing methods establish a tolerance in order to guarantee homogeneous characteristics in their products, in the case of resistors the tolerance or error is given by
e% = | R_nominal - R_measured | / R_nominal 100
where R_nominal is the one written in the resistance in your barcode, R_measured is the real value read with a multimeter and e% is the tolerance also written in the resistors
let's apply this formula to our case
R_nominal = 10 kΩ = 10000 Ω
R_measured = 100 99 Ω
e% = | 10000 - 10099.1 | / 10000 100
e% = 0.99%
this value is within the 5% tolerance given by the manufacturer

A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K,is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012%. Each 40K decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body. What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K in the body?
Answer:
0.03143 Gy
Explanation:
Mass of the human body = 70 kg
Mass of potassium in the human body = 140 g
chemical atomic mass of potassium = 39.1
From avogadros number, we know that 1 atomic mass of an element contains 6.023 × 10^(23) atoms
Thus,
140g of potassium will contain;
(140 × 6.023 × 10^(23))/(39.1) = 2.1566 × 10^(24) atoms
We are told that the natural abundance of one of the 40K isotopes is 0.012%.
Thus;
Number of atoms of this isotope = 0.012% × 6.023 × 10^(23) = 7.2276 × 10^(19) K-40 atoms
Formula for activity of K-40 is given as;
Activity = (0.693 × number of K-40 atoms)/half life
Activity = (0.693 × 7.2276 × 10^(19))/1300000000
Activity = 3.85 × 10^(10)
We are told that each decay deposits 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
Thus;
Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 3.85 × 10^(10) × 1 × 365 = 1405.25 × 10^(10) MeV
Now, 1 MeV = 1.602 × 10^(-13) joules
Thus;
Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 1405.25 × 10^(10) × 1.602 × 10^(-13) = 2.25 J
1 Gy = 1 J/kg
Thus;
Yearly dose = 2.25/70 = 0.03143 Gy
A resistance heater having 20.7 kW power is used to heat a room having 16 m X 16.5 m X 12.3 m size from 13.5 to 21 oC at sea level. The room is sealed once the heater is turned on. Calculate the amount of time needed for this heating to occur in min. (Write your answer in 3 significant digits. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature.)
Answer:
t = 23.6 min
Explanation:
First we need to find the mass of air in the room:
m = ρV
where,
m = mass of air in the room = ?
ρ = density of air at room temperature = 1.2041 kg/m³
V = Volume of room = 16 m x 16.5 m x 12.3 m = 3247.2 m³
Therefore,
m = (1.2041 kg/m³)(3247.2 m³)
m = 3909.95 kg
Now, we find the amount of energy consumed to heat the room:
E = m C ΔT
where,
E = Energy consumed = ?
C = Specific Heat of air at room temperature = 1 KJ/kg.⁰C
ΔT = Change in temperature = 21 °C - 13.5 °C = 7.5 °C
Therefore,
E = (3909.95 kg)(1 KJ/kg.°C)(7.5 °C)
E = 29324.62 KJ
Now, the time period can be calculated as:
P = E/t
t = E/P
where,
t = Time needed = ?
P = Power of heater = 20.7 KW
Therefore,
t = 29324.62 KJ/20.7 KW
t = (1416.65 s)(1 min/60 s)
t = 23.6 min
A double-slit experiment is performed with light of wavelength 620 nm. The bright interference fringes are spaced 2.3 mm apart on the viewing screen. What will the fringe spacing be if the light is changed to a wavelength of 360 nm?
Answer:
1.34 mm
Explanation:
A double slit experiment is conducted with a light which has a wavelength of 620 nm
The fringes are separated 2.3 mm apart
The light is changed to a wavelength length of 360 nm
Let x represent the fringe spacing as a result of the change in wavelength
Therefore,the fringe spacing can be calculated as follows
2.3mm/x= 620nm/360nm
Multiply both sides
x × 620= 2.3×360
620x= 828
x= 828/620
x= 1.34 mm
Test Bank, Question 18.83 Inside a room at a uniform comfortable temperature, metallic objects generally feel cooler to the touch than wooden objects do. This is because: a given mass of wood contains more heat than the same mass of metal the human body, being organic, resembles wood more closely than it resembles metal metal conducts heat better than wood heat tends to flow from metal to wood
Answer:
metal conducts heat better than wood.
Explanation:
Metals are generally good conductors of heat, and they usually conduct heat at a relatively rapid rate. Inside the room with a uniform temperature, a metal when touched will rapidly conduct the heat from your hand, leaving your hand with a cooler feeling. Wood on the other hand is a poor heat conductor, so the heat is not conducted from your hand fast enough to cool it up to the point that your hand feels cool.
A speeding car has a velocity of 80 mph; suddenly it passes a cop car but does not stop. When the speeding car passes the cop car, the cop immediately accelerates his vehicle from 0 to 90 mph in 4.5 seconds. The cop car has a maximum velocity of 90 mph. At what time does the cop car meet the speeding car and at what distance?
Answer:
Distance= 4 miles
Time = 36.3 seconds
Explanation:
80 mph = 178.95 m/s
90 mph = 201.32 m/s
V = u +at
201.32= 0+a(4.5)
201.32/4.5= a
44.738 m/s² = a
Acceleration of the cop car
= 44.738 m/s²
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the cop car
S= ut + ½at²
S= 0(4.5) + ½*44.738*4.5
S= 100.66 meters
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the speeding car
4.5*178.95=805.275
The cop car will still cover 704.675 +x distance while the speeding car covers for their distance to be equal
X/178.95= (704.675+x)/201.32
X-0.89x= 626.37
0.11x= 626.37
X= 5694.3 meters
The time = 5694.3/178.95
Time =31.8 seconds
So the distance they meet
= 5694.3+805.275
= 6499.575 meters
= 4.0 miles
The Time = 4.5+31.8
Time = 36.3 seconds
In France, the wall sockets provide an AC voltage with Vrms = 230 V. You want to use an appliance designed to operate in the United States (Vrms = 120 V) and decide to build a transformer to convert the power line voltage in France to the value required by your appliance.
(a) Should you use a "step-down" transformer (to make Vrms smaller) or a "step-up" transformer (which makes Vrms larger)?
a "step-up" transformer
a "step-down" transformer
(b) If the input coil of your transformer has 2760 turns, how many turns should the output coil have?
_____ turns
Answer:
a)step-down" transformer
b) 1440 turns
Explanation:
There are two types of transformers; step up transformers and step down transformers. A step down transformer converts a higher voltage to a lower voltage.
In a stepdown transformer, there are more turns in the primary coil than in the secondary coil, the turns ratio Ns/Np is less than 1 for a stepdown transformer.
If
Number of turns in primary coil Np= 2760
Number of turns in secondary coil Ns= unknown
Voltage in primary coil Vp= 230 V
Voltage in secondary coil Vs= 120 V
Ns/Np= Vs/VP
NsVp= NpVs
Ns= NpVs/VP = 2760 × 120/230
Ns= 1440 turns
Approximating the eye as a single thin lens 2.70 cmcm from the retina, find the focal length of the eye when it is focused on an object at a distance of 265 cmcm
Answer:
0.37 cm
Explanation:
The image is formed on the retina which is at a constant distance of 2.70 cm to the lens. Therefore, image distance = 2.70 cm.
The object is at a distant of 265 cm to the lens of the eye.
From lens formula,
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{u}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{v}[/tex]
where: f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.
Thus, u = 265.00 cm and v = 2.70 cm.
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{265}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{27}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{10+7155}{2650}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7165}{2650}[/tex]
⇒ f = [tex]\frac{2650}{7165}[/tex]
= 0.37
The focal length of the eye is 0.37 cm.
