In a fusion reactor, the high temperature of the order of 108 k is required in order that what condition is met?

In order for a fusion reactor to function well, one of the important conditions to be met is a high temperature at 108 million Kelvin. This is six times hotter than the temperature of the sun's core. At this temperature, the element hydrogen's state is a plasma, not a gas, where the atoms are stripped of electrons and thus can move freely. This is an ideal condition to enable the reactor to function where it enables the hydrogen atoms to gather enough energy for the reaction which will occur in the later stages of the process. <span />

A gas is compressed in a cylinder from a volume of 20.0 l to 2.0 l by a constant pressure of 10.0 atm. calculate the amount of w

jok3333 [9.3K]

First, we need to convert the pressure in SI units. Keeping in mind that $1 atm = 1.01 \cdot 10^5 Pa$ :
$p=10.0 atm =1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa$

The initial and final volume of the gas are (keeping in mind that $1.0 L = 0.001 m^3$ ):
$V_i = 20.0 L=0.020 m^3$
$V_f = 2.0 L=0.002 m^3$

So, the work done on the gas by the surrounding is
$W= -p \Delta V=-p(V_f-V_i)=-(1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa)(0.002 m^3-0.020 m^3)=18180 J$
And the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.

I would say that it would be A.) Been insulted. This is because you are angered by someone else. It does not necessarily mean that something has de-escelated, you've lost control of your car, or you've nothing to lose. Hopefully that helps. :)

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The ability of water molecules to form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules and water's ability to dissolve substances that have charges or partial charges are <u>due to water's partial charges.</u>

Explanation:

The partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive charge on hydrogen enables them to make hydrogen bond and also makes it to dissolve the the other substances having partial charges.

A car is accelerating at 30 m/s2, if the car is 400 kg how much force

Verizon [17]

It would be 12,000 because newton’s third 2nd law states F=ma (force=matter x acceleration) so 30x400 would be your force .

please mark brainliest and i hope this helps!
