Suppose 3 neutrons are released by an atom of U-235 in the first stage of a fission chain reaction. Each of these neutrons has e

nough energy to cause another fission reaction in another nucleus of U-235, releasing more neutrons. And if all of those 2nd stage neutrons cause other nuclei to fission in a 3rd stage, how many total U-235 atoms will have undergone fission after these 3 stages of the chain reaction?
A. 27
B. 9

The colour of star depend on its temperature, why?​
taurus [48]

<em>Another key factor that determines a star's colour is its temperature. As stars become hotter, the overall radiated energy increases, and the peak of the curve changes to shorter wavelengths. To put it another way, when a star heats up, the light it produces moves toward the blue end of the spectrum.</em>

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in heigh
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

<u>V₀ = 5.47 m/s</u>

Suppose you have a rock that, when it solidifies, contains 1 microgram of a radioactive isotope. How much of this isotope remain
algol13

Answer:

d) 1/32 microgram

Explanation:

First half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half.

Second half reaction is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/4.

Third half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/8.

Forth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/16.

Fifth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/32.

The initial mass of the sample = 1 microgram

After 5 half-lives, the mass should reduce to 1/32 of the original.

So the concentration left = 1/32 of 1 microgram = 1/32 microgram
