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.

Find the work w1 done on the block by the force of magnitude f1 = 95.0 n as the block moves from xi = -5.00 cm to xf = 4.00 cm .

Vlad [161]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 8.55 Joules

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by an object.

Work done = Force × distance

Force = 95 Newtons

Distance = X2 -X1

= 4 - (-5)

= 9 cm

Thus;

work done = 95 × 9/100

<u>= 8.55 Joules </u>

plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are 2.50 mm apart, and each carries a charge of magnitude 85.0 nC . The plates are in vacuu

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

12500 V

Explanation:

The electric field in the gap of a parallel-plate capacitor is uniform, so the following relationship between electric field strength, potential difference and distance can be used:

$\Delta V = E d$

where

$\Delta V$ is the potential difference between the plates

E is the electric field strength

d is the distance between the plates

For the capacitor in this problem, we have

$E=5.00\cdot 10^6 V/m$

$d = 2.50 mm = 2.50\cdot 10^{-3} m$

Substituting, we find

$\Delta V = (5.00\cdot 10^6)(2.50\cdot 10^{-3})=12500 V$

1)the car's engine power is 44000W. Explain this number in a physical sense

Ratling [72]

Answer:

1) It expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) P = 20 W

3) h = 18 km

Explanation:

1) Power is the rate of transfer of energy.

⇒ Power = $\frac{Energy(or workdone)}{Time}$

i.e P = $\frac{E}{t}$

Thus a car's engine power is 44000W implies that the engine of the car can propel the car at this rate. This expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) m = 400g = 0.4 kg

t = 20 s

h = 100m

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$
