What side of the worm faces up when placed in the tray when dissection?

What kind of simple machine is a catapult?

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?

I) a gas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes, a and b, between the same end states, 1 and 2, where p1 = 10 bar, v1 = 0.1 m3 , u1 = 400 kj and p2 = 1 bar, v2 = 1.0 m3 , u2 = 200 kj: ' process a: process from 1 to 2 during which the pressure-volume relation is pv = constant. ' process b: constant-volume process from state 1 to a pressure of 2 bar, followed by a linear pressure-volume process to state 2. kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. for each of the processes a and b, a) sketch the process on a p-v diagram. b) evaluate the work, in kj. c) evaluate the heat transfer, in kj.(ans : qb,12 = -65.0 kj)
