1.) Calculate the mass of a solid gold rectangular bar that has dimensions lwh = 4.30 cm ✕ 14.0 cm  ✕ 27.0 cm. (The density of gold is 19.3 ✕ 103 kg/m3.) kg

2.)A brass ring of diameter 10.00 cm at 17.3°C is heated and slipped over an aluminum rod of diameter 10.01 cm at 17.3°C. Assume the average coefficients of linear expansion are constant.

(a) To what temperature must the combination be cooled to separate the two metals?

(b) What if the aluminum rod were 10.06 cm in diameter?
​

answer: the correct answer is 1.

explanation: there are various process in which a radioactive nuclei decays:

1) alpha decay: in this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. the mass number is reduced by 4 units.

2) electron capture: in this decay process, a parent nuclei absorbs an electron and gets converted into a neutron. simply, a proton and an electron combines together to form a neutron. mass number does not change in this process.

3) gamma ray emission: it is a decay process in which an unstable nuclei gives excess energy by a spontaneous electromagnetic process. this decay releases . this process does not change the mass number.

4) positron emission: it is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron neutrino. this is also known as -decay. in this the mass number remains same.

from the above information, we see that only alpha-decay is producing a change in the mass number of the nucleus.

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.

dang that balls went far
