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.

aluminum has a density of 2.7 g/cm3. if a chuck of aluminum with a mass of 16 g is placed in a graduated cylinder partially fill
sweet-ann [11.9K]
When placing the piece of aluminium in water, the level of water will rise by an amount equal to the volume of the piece of aluminum.
Therefore, we need to find the volume of that piece.

Density can be calculated using the following rule:
Density = mass / volume 
Therefore:
volume = mass / density
we are given that:
the density = 2.7 g / cm^3
the mass = 16 grams
Substitute in the equation to get the volume of the piece of aluminum as follows:
volume = 16 / 2.7 = 5.9259 cm^3

Since the water level will rise to an amount equal to the volume of aluminum, therefore, the water level will rise by 5.9259 cm^3

9. How much energy does a 100 W light bulb use in half an hour? If the light bulb converts
yulyashka [42]

The energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.

What is Energy?

Energy is the ability or the capacity to do work.

To calculate the energy of the light bulb we use the formula below

Formula:

  • E = Pt.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • E = Energy used by the bulb in a half-hour
  • P = Power of the bulb
  • t = Time

Given:

  • P = 100 W
  • t = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes = (30×60) = 1800 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • E = (100×1800)
  • E = 180000 J

  • If the light converts 12% of electric energy to light energy, then  88% of the energy is used to generate thermal energy

Therefore,

  • Thermal energy = (180000×88/100) = 158400 J

Hence, the energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.
