Review Conceptual Example 5 as background for this problem. Suppose some nucleus undergoes α decay, releasing 5.7 MeV of energy. If the daughter product of this reaction is 92 236 X (atomic mass = 236.04556), it will recoil away as the α particle leaves. Determine (a) the energy of the daughter product and (b) the energy of the α particle (atomic mass = 4.002603 u). Assume that the energy of each particle is kinetic energy, and ignore any other small amounts of energy that might be carried away by other emissions. In addition, ignore relativistic effects.

(a) A freezer maintains an interior temperature inside of −26.0∘C and has a coefficient of performance of 3.00 . The freezer sits in a room with a temperature of 21.0∘C. The freezer is able to completely convert 32.0 g of liquid water at 21.0∘C to ice at −26.0∘C in one minute. What input power (in watts) does the freezer require? (The specific heat of liquid water is 4.186 J/(g⋅∘C), the specific heat of ice is 2.090 J/(g⋅∘C), and the latent heat of fusion of water is 334 J/g. ) W (b) What If? In reality, only part of the power consumption of a freezer is used to make ice. The remainder is used to maintain the temperature of the rest of the freezer. Suppose, however, that 100% of a freezer's typical power consumption of 160 W is available to make ice. The freezer has the same coefficient of performance as given above. How many grams per minute of water at 21.0∘C could this freezer convert to ice at −26.0∘C? g/min

Grading for Numeric Answers Tolerance Some numeric answers to questions need to be exact. For example, the answer to the question "How many days are in a week?" must be exactly 7. In general though, numeric answers are graded as correct if they fall within an acceptable range (or tolerance) of the official correct answer. For example, if the answer to a numeric problem with a tolerance of 2% was 105, then entering any value between approximately 103 and 107 would be graded as correct, as shown in the region shaded green below. The typical grading tolerance in Mastering is 2-3%, although this value may vary (e.g. more lenient) depending on the particular problem. A number line is marked at 100, 105, and 110, where 105 is the properly-rounded answer. A green shaded region extends beyond 105 by 2 percent of this value in each direction. Significant Figures While Mastering does not directly grade your answer based on the number of significant figures it contains, the tolerance mentioned above is centered around the properly-rounded answer (as opposed to the full-precision answer). In some problems you will be explicitly told how many significant figures your answer should contain. You may find that entering extra significant figures than required often causes your answer to still fall within the accepted tolerance and thus graded as correct. However, there are problems where not rounding properly may cause your answer to fall outside the accepted tolerance, so it's important to follow the general rules for significant figures, as the following example illustrates. Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 3.1 cm wide and 4.4 cm long. The full-precision answer from your calculator would be 13.64 cm2, although given the rules for significant figures, this answer should be rounded to two significant figures before being entered, or 14 cm2. If you were to enter 13.64 cm2, it would not be graded as correct since this value falls outside the 2% tolerance of the properly-rounded answer of 14 cm2. Instead, you would receive feedback from Mastering telling you to check the rounding of your final answer, although you would not be deducted any points. Part A What is the area of a rectangle that is 3.1 cm wide and 4.4 cm long? Enter the full-precision answer first to see the corresponding feedback before entering the properly-rounded answer. (You do not need to enter the units in this case since they are provided to the right of the answer box). Part B Calculate the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 4.4 cm, a width of 3.1 cm, and a height of 6.3 cm. (As before, you do not need to enter the units since they are provided to the right of the answer box.) Part C The momentum of an object is determined to be 7.2×10-3 kg⋅m/s. Express this quantity as provided or use any equivalent unit. (Note: 1 kg = 1000 g). Part D Enter the following expression in the answer box below: √2gλ3m, where λ is the lowercase Greek letter lambda.Grading for Numeric Answers Tolerance Some numeric answers to questions need to be exact.
