Please answer this: Process:  - The nuclei of some atoms have too few or too many neutrons - The atoms become unstable - The atoms split - In alpha decay, two protons and two neutrons are released from the atom - In beta decay, a neutron changes into a proton and an electron - The proton joins the nucleus of the atom - The electron is released -   Perturbation hypothesis: suppose the atoms are less stable happens, how will it affect less protons are releases from the atom.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes


Please answer this: Process:  - Water comes into contact with something made of iron - The water combines with carbon dioxide in the air to form carbonic acid - As the acid is formed, the iron starts to dissolve - Some of the water breaks down into hydrogen and oxygen - The free oxygen and dissolved iron bond together - They form iron oxide, which is rust -   Perturbation hypothesis: suppose no carbonic acid is formed happens, how will it affect MORE rust forming.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?

Answer: yes


Please answer this: Process:  - The air is cold - Water is in the air - The water forms tiny ice crystals - The ice crystals collide with each other - The ice crystals stick to each other - The ice crystals get bigger as more of them stick together - The ice crystals get too heavy to be in the air - The ice crystals become snowflakes - The snow flakes fall to the ground as snow.  Perturbation hypothesis: suppose The air climate is milder happens, how will it affect more ice crystals will stick together.  Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
