Answer: Nuclear Fission

Explanation:

Nuclear fission reactions are one of the nuclear reactions in which heavier nuclei splits into two or more lighter nuclei. In these reactions, neutrons are released with a large amount of energy.

General equation for nuclear fission reactions is given by:

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-U}^{A-V}\textrm{Y}+_U^V\textrm{W}+3_0^1n+\text{Energy}

Nuclear fusion reactions are one of the nuclear reactions in which two or more lighter nuclei combines to form heavier nuclei. In these reactions,   large amount of energy is released.

projectile motion of a particle of mass M with charge Q is projected with an initial speed V in a driection opposite to a unifor
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Range, R = MV²/2QE

Explanation:

The question deals with the projectile motion of a particle mass M with charge Q, having an initial speed V in a direction opposite to that of a uniform electric field.

Since we are dealing with projectile motion in an electric field, the unknown variable here, would be the range, R of the projectile. We note that the electric field opposes the motion of the particle thereby reducing its kinetic energy. The particle stops when it loses  all its kinetic energy due to the work done on it in opposing its motion by the electric field. From work-kinetic energy principles, work done on charge by electric field = loss in kinetic energy of mass.

So, [tex]QER = MV²/2{/tex} where R is the distance (range) the mass moves before it stops

Therefore {tex}R = MV²/2QE{/tex}

What is the Kinetic Energy of a 1200 kg object that is moving with a speed of 24 m/s
SVEN [57.7K]

Kinetic Energy = 1/2mv^2

m= 1200kg

v= 24 m/s

KE = 1/2 (1200kg)(24m/s)^2 = 345,600 N
