a) 607.5 J

b) 160.531875 J

c)  0 J

d)  0 J

e) 2.925 m\s

Explanation:

The given data :-

Solution:-

a) The work done by applied force ( W )

W = force applied × displacement = 150 × 4.05 = 607.5 J

b)  The increase in internal energy in the box-floor system due to friction.

Frictional force ( f ) = μ × N = 0.3 × 367.875 = 110.3625 N

Change in internal energy = change in kinetic energy.

ΔU = ( K.E )₂ - ( K.E )₁

Since the initial velocity is zero so the  ( K.E )₁ = 0  

ΔU = ( K.E )₂ = ( F - f ) × ( x ) = ( 150 - 110.3625 ) × 4.05 = 160.531875 J

c) The work done by the normal force .

Displacement of box vertically = 0

W = force applied × displacement = 367.875 × 0 = 0 J

d)  The work done by the gravitational force.

Displacement of box vertically = 0

W = force applied × displacement = 367.875 × 0 = 0 J

e) The change in kinetic energy of the box

( K.E )₂ - ( K.E )₁ = ( K.E )₂ - 0 = ( F - f ) × ( x ) = ( 150 - 110.3625 ) × 4.05 = 160.531875 J

f) The final speed of the box

( K.E )₂ = 160.531875 J = 0.5 × 37.5 × v²

v² = 8.56

v = 2.925 m\s.

a) are muscles that have bands.

happy to

pls mark as brainliest

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.
