A probability contour represents a bounded, finite volume about a nucleus in which there is a substantial probability of finding the electron is TRUE.

The rectangular of the wave characteristic, ψ2 , represents the opportunity of locating an electron in a given vicinity within the atom. probability finding electron at nucleus is zero.

An orbital is a mathematical feature that has a fee at all points in space. The magnitude squared of that fee is the chance according to volume of locating an electron in that volume of area.

The probability of locating electron in nodes is 0, but there are electron densities on all round nodes. The node is a point or a floor (relying at the type of node) so the volume of the vicinity wherein ψ=zero is zero. we want to position V=zero and we get P=zero so the chance of finding the electron on the node is zero.

Explain why nuclear fission and nuclear fusion release large amounts of energy
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because of the formula E=mc^2

Explanation:

In this problem we are describing two different processes:

  • Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei
  • Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus

In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.

According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:

E=\Delta mc^2

where:

E is the energy released in the reaction

\Delta m is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass

c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

From the formula, we see that the factor c^2 is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect \Delta m is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.

Ashkon throws a basketball across the court to his teammate. The ball has 57 J of potential energy and 61 J of kinetic energy. W
Gwar [14]
The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.

Choose the correct statement concerning units of power or energy. a. A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power. b. A gigawatt (GW) is
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.

Explanation:

The power of an object is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

Here,

E is the energy required

t is time

The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.    

Option (1) :  A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.

Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.

Hence, the correct option is (d).
