Nuclear energy is released during: fission. radioactive decay. man-induced splitting of atoms. Match the basic components of a nuclear reactor with their descriptions. 1. slows down neutrons -> moderator. 2. absorb emitted neutrons -> control rods.

Explain how grality and electric charge are different
stich3 [128]
A difference between the two forces is the fact that gravitation only attracts, while electrical forces attract when the electrical charges are opposite and repel if the charges are similar. Thus, gravitation is considered a monopole force, while electrostatics is a dipole force. Please mark me as a brainiest!!!

a mass of 0.75 kg is attached to a spring and placed on a horizontal surface. the spring has a spring constant of 180 N/m, and t
Artemon [7]

Answer:

6.57 m/s

Explanation:

First use Hook's Law to determine the F the compressed spring acts on the mass. Hook's Law F=kx; F=force, k=stiffnes of spring (or spring constant), x=displacement

F=kx; F=180(.3) = 54 N

Next from Newton's second law find the acceleration of the mass.

Newton's .2nd law F=ma; a=F/m ; a=54/.75 = 72m/s²

Now use the kinematic equation for velocity (or speed)

v₂²= v₀² + 2a(x₂-x₀); v₂=final velocity; v₀=initial velocity; a=acceleration; x₂=final displacement; x₀=initial displacment.

v₀=0, since the mass is at rest before we release it

a=72 m/s² (from above)

x₀=0 as the start position already compressed

x₂=0.3m (this puts the spring back to it's natural length)

v₂²= 0 + 2(72)(0.3) = 43.2 m²/s²

v₂=\sqrt{43.2)\\ = 6.57 m/s

What is the wavelength of an earthquake wave if it has a speed of 13 km/s and a frequency of 14 Hz?
Galina-37 [17]
Wavelength = velocity/frequency

wavelength = v/f
v= 13km/s = change this to m/s = 13000m/s
f= 14Hz

wavelength = 13000m/s÷14Hz =928.7 m

Falls resulting in hip fractures are a major cause of injury and even death to the elderly. Typically, the hip’s speed at impact
Westkost [7]

Answer:

-5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

0.118909090909 s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{1.3^2-2^2}{2\times 0.02}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529\ m/s^2

Dividing by g

\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{-57.75}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529g

The acceleration is -5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{1.3-2}{-5.8868501529}\\\Rightarrow t=0.118909090909\ s

The time taken is 0.118909090909 s

The spectral lines of two stars in a particular eclipsing binary system shift back and forth with a period of 3 months. The line
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Explanation:

given

T = 3months = 7.9 × 10⁶s

orbital speed = 88 × 10³m/s

V= 2πr÷T

∴ r = (V×T) ÷ 2π

r = (88km × 7.9 × 10⁶s) ÷ 2π

r = 1.10 × 10⁸km

using kepler's 3rd law

mass of both stars = (seperation diatance)³/(orbital speed)²

M₁ + M₂ = (2r)³/(\frac{1}{4}year)²

= (1.06 × 10²⁵)/(6.2×10¹³)

1.71×10¹²kg

since M₁ = M₂ =1.71×10¹²kg ÷ 2

M₁ = M₂ = 8.55×10¹¹kg
