Answer:

When uranium is mined, it consists of approximately 99.3% uranium-238 (U238), 0.7% uranium-235 (U235), and < 0.01% uranium-234 (U234). These are the different uranium isotopes. Isotopes of uranium contain 92 protons in the atom's center or nucleus. (The number of protons in the nucleus is what makes the atoms "uranium.") The U238 atoms contain 146 neutrons, the U235 atoms contain 143 neutrons, and the U234 atoms contain only 142 neutrons. The total number of protons plus neutrons gives the atomic mass of each isotope — that is 238, 235, or 234, respectively. On an atomic level, the size and weight of these isotopes are slightly different. This implies that with the right equipment and under the right conditions, the isotopes can be separated.

Help me calculate the kinetic energy (just the middle column) ASAP! SHOW WORK! ON PAPER
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

I can tell you what the answers for the middle column are, but if you don't know how to solve total energy problems, they won't make any sense to you at all.

First row, KE = 0

Second row, KE = 220500 J

Third row, KE = 183750 J

Fourth row, KE = 205800 J

That's also not paying any attention to significant digits because your velocity only had 1 and that's not enough to do the problem justice. I left all the digits in the answer. Round how your teacher tells you to.

The heat capacity of 0.125Kg of water is measured to be 523j/k at a room temperature.Hence, calculate the heat capacity of water
Naily [24]

Answer:

A. 4148 J/K/Kg

B. 4148 J/K/L

Explanation:

A. Heat capacity per unit mass is known as the specific heat capacity, c.

C = Heat capacity/mass(kg)

C = (523 J/K) / 0.125 Kg = 4148 J/K/Kg

B. Volume of water = mass/density

Density of water = 1 Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 Kg/ 1Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = (523 J/K) / 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = 4148 J/K/L
