The nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms releases a huge amount of energy. So the correct choice is C. Conversion of mass to energy.

What is nuclear fusion?

When two small nuclei join to form a new nucleus, then this process is termed nuclear fusion. A huge amount of energy is released when there occurs nuclear fusion between the two nuclei. And a new element is formed.

It has been observed that the amount of energy released in nuclear fusion is equal to the mass difference between the mass of the formed nucleus and the total mass of old nuclei. Hence in the nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form a helium nucleus, the energy is released due to the conversion of mass into energy.

The pressure is increased to make the hydrogen atoms fuse but this change in pressure does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The magnitude of the gravitational field is too low and it does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The gravitational collapse does not occur between the two hydrogen atoms. This phenomenon occurs in celestial bodies so this also does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

Answer:

A) Energy is dissipated into heat and sound energy due to Friction

B) The energy goes into heat and sound energy due to friction again, otherwise the cart would accelerate due to an unbalanced force. Therefore, we know there's friction, and the friction causes energy loss.

The velocity of blood flow is the lowest in capillaries because
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries is greater than the total cross-sectional area of the arteries or any other part of the circulatory system.

Explanation:

Blood velocity is not the same in all areas. In the capillaries it is where there is less speed, while in arteries and veins it is quite similar. This is due to the cross-sectional area of ​​each of the vessels. It is a mistake to think of a vein, artery or capillary individually. We have to put them all together to see that the total area of ​​the capillaries is 100 times larger than that of the arteries or veins. Blood flowing through arteries or veins is going faster because there is less area.

Blood velocity is inversely proportional to each of the areas of its territories. The greater the area, the lower the speed.
