Strong nuclear forces

Explanation:

The formation and breakage of the strong nuclear forces in the nucleus of an atom accounts for the energy released during fission and fusion reactions.

Nuclear reactions occurs when changes are made to the nucleus of an atom.

  • Strong nuclear forces maintains the stability in the nucleus of an atom.
  • Strong nuclear forces are the strongest of the fundamental forces.
  • They hold subatomic particles together.
  • When they are broken during a nuclear fission, they release a great deal of energy.
  • When they form during a fusion they also release energy.

Answer:

Gypsum

Explanation:

Gypsum is a soft sulfate mineral composed of Calcium Sulfate di-hydrate. It is widely used in composition of fertilizer. It is also known as land plaster. On adding gypsum to soil, the quality of soil is improved. It conditions the soil and adds nutrients. The properties of soil is improved. Hence, the correct answer is Gypsum.

Asteroids are between 1000 km and less than 10 m in diameter. What is the diameter of most asteroids?
e-lub [12.9K]

This question needs research to be answered. From the given information alone it can't be answered without making wild assumptions.

Ideally, you need to take a look at a distribution (or a histogram) of asteroid diameters, identify the "mode" of such a distribution, and find the corresponding diameter. That value will be the answer.

I am attaching one such histogram on asteroid diameters from the IRAS asteroid catalog I could find online. (In order to get a single histogram, you need to add the individual curves in the figure first). Eyeballing this sample, I'd say the mode is somewhere around 10km, so the answer would be: the diameter of most asteroid from the IRAS asteroid catalog is about 10km.

two electronics students are discussing electrical units. student A says that electrical power is measured in units coulombs, st
Savatey [412]
The statements of both students are incorrect.

-- Electrical power, just like mechanical power, is expressed in units of watts.
-- 'Coulomb' is the unit of electrical charge.
-- '400 k ohms'  means 400,000 ohms of resistance.
-- 'Volt' is the unit of electromotive force (or potential difference).

There are no 'following statements'.

All in all, a very disappointing question.

The potential energy of a particle as a function of position will be given as U(x) = A x2 + B x + C, where U will be in joules w
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

F = - 2 A x - B

Explanation:

The force and potential energy are related by the expression

      F = - dU / dx i ^ -dU / dy j ^ - dU / dz k ^

Where i ^, j ^, k ^ are the unit vectors on the x and z axis

The potential they give us is

     U (x) = A x² + B x + C

Let's calculate the derivatives

    dU / dx = A 2x + B + 0

The other derivatives are zero because the potential does not depend on these variables.

Let's calculate the strength

      F = - 2 A x - B

What is the angle of deviation in a plane mirror at normal incidence?​
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The deviation of a mirror is equal to twice the angle of incidence.The total angle between the straight-line path and the reflected ray is twice the angle of incidence. This is called the deviation of the light and measures the angle at which the light has strayed from its initial straight-line path.

HOPE IT HELPS :)
