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.

What is the name of the perceived change in a sound wave’s frequency due to motion between the observer and the sound source?
Scrat [10]

when observer and source moves relative to each other then the frequency received by the observer is different from the real frequency

This apparent change in frequency due to relative motion is known as Doppler's effect.

Here we know that

f_{app} = f_o\frac{v\pm v_o}{v \pm v_s}

here we know that

f_o = real frequency

v = speed of sound

v_o = speed of observer

v_s = speed of source

so this is known as Doppler's Effect

How much heat energy is produced by 0.5 Wh of electrical energy ?
babymother [125]
1.7 Btu

1 watt = 3.41214 Btu/h

1watt * 1h = 3.41214 Btu/h * h

1 = 3.41214 Btu/ (watt*h)/

0.5 watt * h = 0.5 watt*h * 3.41214 Btu/(watt*h) = 1.706 Btu

At time t=0 a 2150 kg rocket in outer space fires an engine that exerts an increasing force on it in the +x−direction. This forc
amm1812

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the rocket, m = 2150 kg

At time t=0 a rocket in outer space fires an engine that exerts an increasing force on it in the +x−direction. The force is given by equation :

F=At^2

Here F = 888.93 N when t = 1.25 s

(c) We can find the value of A first as :

F=At^2\\\\A=\dfrac{F}{t^2}\\\\A=\dfrac{888.93}{(1.25)^2}\\\\A=568.91\ N/s^2

The value of A is 568.91\ N/s^2.

(a) Let J is the impulse does the engine exert on the rocket during the 4.0 s interval starting 2.00 s after the engine is fired. It is given in terms of force as :

J=\int\limits {F{\cdot} dt}

Limits will be from 2 s to 2+ 4 = 6 s

It implies :

J=\int\limits^6_2 {At^2{\cdot} dt}\\\\J=A\int\limits^6_2 {t^2{\cdot} dt}\\\\J=A\dfrac{t^3}{3}|_2^6\\\\J=568.91\times \dfrac{1}{3}\times (6^3-2^3)\\\\J=39444.42\ Ns

(b) Impulse is also equal to the change in momentum as :

J=m\Delta v\\\\\Delta v=\dfrac{J}{m}\\\\\Delta v=\dfrac{39444.42}{2150}\\\\\Delta v=18.34\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

How much energy is used when a 110kw appliance is used for 3 hours
Bogdan [553]
We could take the easy way out and just say

(110 kW) x (3 hours) = 330 kilowatt hours .

But that's cheap, and hardly worth even 5 points.
If we want to talk energy, let's use the actual scientific unit of energy.
________________________________________________

" 110 kw " means 110,000 watts = 110,000 joules/second .

(3 hours) x (3600 sec/hour) = 10,800 seconds.

(110,000 joules/second) x (10,800 seconds) = 1.188 x 10⁹ Joules

 That's

==>  1,188,000,000 joules

==>  1,188,000 kilojoules

==>  1,188 megajoules

==>  1.188 gigajoules

Atsa nawfulotta energy ! 
It goes back to that "110 kw appliance" that we started with. 
That's no common ordinary household appliance.  110 kw is something like
147 horsepower.  In order to bring 110 kw into your house, you'd need to
take 458 Amperes through the 240-volt line from the pole.  Most houses
are limited to 100 or 200 Amperes, tops.  And the TRANSFORMER on
the pole, that supplies the whole neighborhood, is probably a 50 kw unit.
