<span>The correct answer is: Atomic orbital

Explanation:
In the modern quantum-based atomic theory, an atomic orbital is a mathematical function that is used to explain the wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. In other words, the space around the nucleus in which an electron moves is expressed by the atomic orbital. Hence, the correct answer is Atomic orbital.</span>

One of the waste products of a nuclear reactor is plutonium-239 . This nucleus is radioactive and decays by splitting into a hel
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) v_{U-235} = 2.68 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

v_{He-4} = -1.57 \cdot 10^{7} m/s  

b) E_{He-4} = 8.23 \cdot 10^{-13} J

E_{U-235} = 1.41 \cdot 10^{-14} J

 

Explanation:

Searching the missed information we have:                                        

E: is the energy emitted in the plutonium decay = 8.40x10⁻¹³ J

m(⁴He): is the mass of the helium nucleus = 6.68x10⁻²⁷ kg  

m(²³⁵U): is the mass of the helium U-235 nucleus = 3.92x10⁻²⁵ kg            

a) We can find the velocities of the two nuclei by conservation of linear momentum and kinetic energy:

Linear momentum:

p_{i} = p_{f}

m_{Pu-239}v_{Pu-239} = m_{He-4}v_{He-4} + m_{U-235}v_{U-235}

Since the plutonium nucleus is originally at rest, v_{Pu-239} = 0:

0 = m_{He-4}v_{He-4} + m_{U-235}v_{U-235}  

v_{He-4} = -\frac{m_{U-235}v_{U-235}}{m_{He-4}}    (1)

Kinetic Energy:

E_{Pu-239} = \frac{1}{2}m_{He-4}v_{He-4}^{2} + \frac{1}{2}m_{U-235}v_{U-235}^{2}

2*8.40 \cdot 10^{-13} J = m_{He-4}v_{He-4}^{2} + m_{U-235}v_{U-235}^{2}    

1.68\cdot 10^{-12} J = m_{He-4}v_{He-4}^{2} + m_{U-235}v_{U-235}^{2}   (2)    

By entering equation (1) into (2) we have:

1.68\cdot 10^{-12} J = m_{He-4}(-\frac{m_{U-235}v_{U-235}}{m_{He-4}})^{2} + m_{U-235}v_{U-235}^{2}  

1.68\cdot 10^{-12} J = 6.68 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(-\frac{3.92 \cdot 10^{-25} kg*v_{U-235}}{6.68 \cdot 10^{-27} kg})^{2} +3.92 \cdot 10^{-25} kg*v_{U-235}^{2}  

Solving the above equation for v_{U-235} we have:

v_{U-235} = 2.68 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

And by entering that value into equation (1):

v_{He-4} = -\frac{3.92 \cdot 10^{-25} kg*2.68 \cdot 10^{5} m/s}{6.68 \cdot 10^{-27} kg} = -1.57 \cdot 10^{7} m/s                        

The minus sign means that the helium-4 nucleus is moving in the opposite direction to the uranium-235 nucleus.

b) Now, the kinetic energy of each nucleus is:

For He-4:

E_{He-4} = \frac{1}{2}m_{He-4}v_{He-4}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 6.68 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(-1.57 \cdot 10^{7} m/s)^{2} = 8.23 \cdot 10^{-13} J

For U-235:

E_{U-235} = \frac{1}{2}m_{U-235}v_{U-235}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 3.92 \cdot 10^{-25} kg*(2.68 \cdot 10^{5} m/s)^{2} = 1.41 \cdot 10^{-14} J

 

I hope it helps you!

Calculate the displacement of an object at 2.0 seconds when thrown straight up with an
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h3>30m</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity is the change of rate of displacement with respect to time.

velocity = displacement/time

Given

initial velocity = 15 m/s.

time taken =2 secs

Required

Displacement of the object

From the formula;

Displacement = Velocity * time

Displacement = 15 * 2

Displacement = 30m

<em>Hence the displacement of the object is 30m</em>
