One way to identify the type of radiation decay produced in a reaction is to pass the emission through an electric field. Describe the type of radiation emission produced from decay of uranium-238 to thorium-235

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft

the components of a vector are the parts of the vectors that are to each other.
