What are the conditions of the thermonuclear fusion reaction in the sun?

1 answer:

8 0

High temperature gives the hydrogen atoms enough energy to overcome the electrical repulsion between the protons. Fusion requires temperatures of about 100 million Kelvin (approximately six times hotter than the sun's core).

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.25-kg mass is hung from the spring. After all vibrations have died away, the spring

ch4aika [34]

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through its equilibrium position is about 1.20 J

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy formula as follows:

$\boxed{E_p = \frac{1}{2}k x^2}$

where:

<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>

<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>

<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

mass of object = m = 1.25 kg

initial extension = x = 0.0275 m

final extension = x' = 0.0735 - 0.0275 = 0.0460 m

<u>Asked:</u>

kinetic energy = Ek = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Firstly , we will calculate the spring constant by using </em><em>Hooke's Law</em><em> as follows:</em>

$F = k x$

$mg = k x$

$k = mg \div x$

$k = 1.25(9.8) \div 0.0275$

$k = 445 \frac{5}{11} \texttt{ N/m}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Next , we will use </em><em>Conservation of Energy</em><em> formula to solve this problem:</em>

$Ep_1 + Ek_1 = Ep_2 + Ek_2$

$\frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh + 0 = \frac{1}{2}k x^2 + Ek$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh - \frac{1}{2}k x^2$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}k ( (x')^2 - x^2 ) + mgh$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}(445 \frac{5}{11}) ( 0.0460^2 - 0.0275^2 ) + 1.25(9.8)(0.0735)$

$\boxed {Ek \approx 1.20 \texttt{ J}}$
