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).

Which of the following are examples of projectile motion?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer: A. a basketball being shot toward the basket

Explanation: The definition of projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. So, the basketball is the object being thrown and the person throwing the ball is aiming it to go into the basket making that the path of trajectory. Hope that makes sense and helps!

The volume of 2.0 kg of helium in a piston-cylinder device is initially 7 m3. Now the helium is compressed to 5 m3 while its pre

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

A) T1 = 269.63 K

T2 = 192.59 K

B) W = -320 KJ

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial volume: V1 = 7 m³

Final Volume; V2 = 5 m³

Constant Pressure; P = 160 KPa

Mass; m = 2 kg

To find the initial and final temperatures, we will use the ideal gas formula;

T = PV/mR

Where R is gas constant of helium = R = 2.0769 kPa.m/kg

Thus;

Initial temperature; T1 = (160 × 7)/(2 × 2.0769) = 269.63 K

Final temperature; T2 = (160 × 5)/(2 × 2.0769) = 192.59 K

B) world one is given by the formula;

W = P(V2 - V1)

W = 160(5 - 7)

W = -320 KJ

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the

tatuchka [14]

The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
$W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N$
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
$F=12 N$
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
$T \cos \alpha -F=0$
$T \sin \alpha -W=$
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
$\tan \alpha = \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04$
From which we find
$\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}$
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
$T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N$
