I seem to be stuck on this problem. I thought calculating the velocity of the center of mass of the system would get me somewhere, but I remain confused about where to go next. Here is the problem:
The light isotope, 5^Li is unstable and breaks up spontaneously into a proton (hydrogen nucleus)...
Hi on a test there was a question that said "Which symbols represent atoms that are isotopes of each other?" the answer turned out to be 16O and 18O, the numbers referring to the number of protons and neutrons. Anyhow I wanted to know what you have to do in order to get that answer as I got...
I was viewing a site on the flat Earth society when I came across their application form to join. Here are a few ridiculous things listed:
Favorite Radioactive Isotope:
Favorite Mineral:
Favorite Eastern European Nation:
Favorite Presidential Cabinet Member
Which is your...
Does anyone know of any book, program, or website that has a ton of detailed information about isotopes? Such how many and what particles they emit (alpha, beta, gamma, x-ray). What the max and average energy those particles have. What range in water and tissue those particles have. What their...
I am doing a report on superconductors. One of the ideas to support the idea of bandgaps in the superconductor is the isotope effect. Unfortentualy I have been an able to find any information on how exactly the isotope effect works. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thank you...
The current understanding of palaeo climate is fundamental for the current views on climate mechanism. One important part in that is using the stable isotope ratios, mainly of 18O and 2H or deuterium. We have registered those in the ice cores of Greenland and Artarctica as well as in the oceanic...
