1. A particular lever is 90.0% efficient. If 50.0 J of work are done on the lever, then how much work does the lever do on its load? 2.The mechanical advantage of a pulley system is 4.00. Using this pulley system, how much force do you need to exert to lift a 500.0 N box?

if you already have the answer to (a), then just work out how many periods there are in 1 minute, and that's the answer to (c).

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.
