What happens during the entire fusion process in the Sun?

Okay... so here's what happened;

A huge amount of mass is above you, squeezing down from you from all sides; that's what happened to the hydrogen gas in the core of the sun. It got squeezed together so tightly that four hydrogen nuclei combined to form one helium atom. That's called nuclear fusion. In the process, some of the mass of the hydrogen atoms is converted into energy in the form of light.

C) Six hydrogen nuclei come together to produce one helium nucleus and two protons, and energy is released.

Calculate the separation between the two lowest levels for an O2 molecule in a one-dimensional container of length 5.0 cm. At wh

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The separation between the two lowest levels = $1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

The values of n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT at 300K = $2.2 * 10^{9}$

The separation at this level = 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J

Explanation:

Knowing the formula

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

Mass of oxygen molecule

m (O2) = 32 amu * $\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu}$

So the energy diference between the two lowest levels:

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3h^{2} }{8mL^{2} }$

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3 * (6.626 * 10^{-34} Js)^{2} } {8 * 32 amu * (\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu})* (5*10^{-2})^{2} } = 1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

Now we should find n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{2}kT$

$\frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $4.13 * 10^{-14}J$

$n^{2} * (4.13 * 10^{-14}J) = \frac{1}{2} (1.38 * 10^{-23}JK^{-1}) * 300K$

$n = 2.2 * 10^{9}$

by the end is necessary to calculate the separation of the level

En - En-1 = $(n^{2} - (n - 1)^{2}) * \frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

= 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J

A car of mass 2400kg moving at 20 m/s slams into a cement wall and comes to a halt?

Brut [27]

Impulse = change in momentum

The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)

Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s

To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .

Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

To calculate displacement, simply draw a vector from your starting point to your final position and solve for the length of this line. If your starting and ending position are the same, like your circular 5K route, then your displacement is 0. In physics, displacement is represented by Δs.

For me to solve this I would need to know the time, but I can give you a handy displacement calculator I used that helped me.

Hope I helped.

Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across a 26-V battery, which supplies them with a total power of 7.1 W. While

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A) R = 190.42 Ω

B) P = 5.325 W

Explanation:

We are given;

Total power;P_tot = 7.1 W

Voltage;V = 26 V

A)We are told that while the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated, so that its resistance doubles.

Thus, the power is doubled.

Now, formula for power is;

P = IV

Thus, since power is doubled, we have;

P = 2(IV)

Now, formula for current is; I = V/R

So, P = 2V²/R

Making R the subject, we have;

R = 2V²/P

In this question, P is p_total = 7.1 W

Thus;

R = (2 × 26²)/7.1

R = 190.42 Ω

B) Now, the resistance of the resistors are R and 2R.

Formula for power in this context is;

P = V²/R

Thus,

Total power delivered to the resistors is;

P = V²/R + V²/2R

P = 3V²/2R

P = (3 × 26²)/(2 × 190.42)

P = 5.325 W
