Two capacitors, C1 = 5.00 μF and C2 = 12.0 μF, are connected in parallel, and the resulting combination is connected to a 9.00-V battery. (a) What is the equivalent Figure 1 2 capacitance of the combination? What are (b) the potential difference across each capacitor and (c) the charge stored on each capacitor?

Find the probability that the nucleus of 87Ra221 undergoes decay after three half-lives, if its a radioactive substance which has a half-life of 6 days. A. 1/6

B. 3/2 C. 5/6

D. 12

Uranium-238 is bombarded with carbon-12 to yield californium-246 along with several neutrons.

What is the velocity of the car with respect to (as seen by) V man V car=5m/s

During fission of 235U induced by a neutron , bromine-87 is produced with a relatively high yield ( around 1.3%).

This bromine-87 decay into krypton-87 with a half-life of 56s. This krypton-87 is produced with an average excitation energy of 5.4 MeV.

This krypton-87 usually emit a neutron soon after being created. How is it possible? What data would you need to actually check if the condition are met in this case? 

Calculate the energy balance and the Q value of reaction of neutron capture on 135Xe and 136Xe. Compare and comment the differences.

Explain and analyze the interaction between individuals, events and ideas in Marie Curie and the discovery of radioactivity. in doing so, first describe how the text's depiction of curie and her accomplishments impacts the big ideas the author wants to convey. Then examine and write about why curie and her achievements are relevant and important for readers to know about and understand. be sure to use SPECIFIC examples from the text to support the points in your response
