At an amusement park there is a ride in which cylindrically shaped chambers spin around a central axis. people sit in seats facing the axis, their backs against the outer wall. at one instant the outer wall moves at a speed of 3.28 m/s, and an 84.4-kg person feels a 488-n force pressing against his back. what is the radius of a chamber?

r = 1.86 m

Explanation:

Here the force due to wall of the cylinder is towards the axis of the cylinder

This force will act as centripetal force for the people sit inside the chamber

now we will have

now we will have

m = 84.4 kg

v = 3.28 m/s

now we have

now we have

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.
