Answer:
a) m = 993 g
b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J
Explanation:
atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794
4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176
we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602
difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158
fraction of mass lost =
= 0.00723
loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23
a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)
b) energy released in the process
E = m c²
E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²
E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J
Stars are huge celestial bodies made mostly of hydrogen and helium that produce light and heat from the churning nuclear forges inside their cores. Aside from our sun, the dots of light we see in the sky are all light-years from Earth. They are the building blocks of galaxies, of which there are billions in the universe. It’s impossible to know how many stars exist, but astronomers estimate that in our Milky Way galaxy alone, there are about 300 billion.
Answers:
a) -2.54 m/s
b) -2351.25 J
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum
must be equal to the final momentum
:
(1)
Where:
(2)
(3)
is the mass of the first football player
is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)
is the mass of the second football player
is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)
is the final velocity of both football players
With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:
a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):
(4)
Isolating
:
(5)
(6)
(7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south
b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player
The change in Kinetic energy
is defined as:
(8)
Simplifying:
(9)
(10)
Finally:
(10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision
Answer: B
Explanation: This can be easily done by inputting 5280 * 2.2.
