Which explains why more energy is released in nuclear reactions than in chemical reactions? Chemical reactions are always endoth

ermic. No molecular bonds are broken in nuclear reactions. Protons and neutrons are exchanged in chemical reactions. In nuclear reactions, mass is converted to energy.

More energy is released in nuclear reactions than in chemical reactions; this is because in nuclear reactions, mass is converted to energy. Nuclear energy released in nuclear fission and fusion is several 100 million times as large as an ordinary chemical reaction like the combustion process. The reason why nuclear energy release so much energy is because tremendous amounts of energy is released at one time. The nuclei in a nuclear reaction undergo a chain reaction, causing the neutrons to move extremely fast and release high amounts of energy.

In major league baseball, the pitcher's mound is 60 feet from the batter. If a pitcher throws a 85 mph fastball, how much time e
Nostrana [21]
The given from your problem are the following:
V = 85mph (This is miles per hour)
d = 60 feet

If you notice the units do not match. Before we can do anything else, we need to make the figures match. 

In this case, we will convert 85miles per hour to feet per hour.  There are 5,280 feet in 1 mile. 
\frac{85miles }{hr} x \frac{5,280feet}{1miles} = \frac{448,800feet}{hr}

But wait! If you think about the scenario, you are looking for how long it will take for the ball to reach the bat. The most applicable unit of time to use here is second. It would be very hard to really measure a short and instantaneous event in hours. So we convert it into feet per second: 

There are 3,600 seconds in 1 hour.

\frac{448,800feet }{hour} x \frac{1hour}{3,600seconds} = \frac{448,800feet}{3,600 seconds} = 124.67ft/s

So now we have our new given as:

v = 124.67ft/s
d = 60 ft

The formula for time can be derived from the formula from velocity, which is:
velocity = \frac{distance}{time}

The formula of time will then be:
time= \frac{distance}{velocity}

All you need to do is plug in what you know and solve for what you don't know. 

time= \frac{60feet}{124.67ft/s}

time= 0.48s

The answer then is 0.48s.

If you want this in hours, just divide the value in seconds by 3,600. The answer would then be 0.00013hr. (See how small it is? This is why seconds would be a more appropriate measure.)

Suppose a sound wave and an electromagnetic wave have the same frequency. Which has the longer wavelength? 1. the electromagneti
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1. the electromagnetic wave.

Explanation:

Mathematically,

wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves of different frequency are called by different names since they have different sources and effects on matter, increasing frequency decreases wavelength.

Sound waves (which obviously travel at the speed of sound) are much slower than electromagnetic waves (which travel at the speed of light.)  

Electromagnetic waves are much faster than sound waves and If the Velocity of the wave increases and the frequency is constant, the wavelength also increases.
