15. Calculate the resistive forces acting on a sports car if it is travelling at a steady speed of 25 m/s when the engine is providing 200 kW. gnt V 10X50 - soot Grade 9 ​

8000 N

Explanation:

Applying

P = F×V Equation 1

Where P = Power of the sport car, F = resistive force acting on the sport car, V  = Speed of the sport car.

make F the subject of the equation

F = P/V Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 200 kW = 200000 W, V = 25 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

F = 200000/25

F = 8000 N

50 inches should be the resultant vector

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.
