What is nuclear fission? why is this process important to stars?

Physics

KIM [24]3 years ago

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new nucleus. This process is important to stars because they get their energy from the nuclear fusion process

A particle moves in a velocity field V(x, y) = x2, x + y2 . If it is at position (x, y) = (7, 2) at time t = 3, estimate its loc
MArishka [77]

Answer:

New location at time 3.01 is given by: (7.49, 2.11)

Explanation:

Let's start by understanding what is the particle's velocity (in component form) in that velocity field at time 3:

V_x=x^2=7^2=49\\V_y=x+y^2=7+2^2=11

With such velocities in the x direction and in the y-direction respectively, we can find the displacement in x and y at a time 0.01 units later by using the formula:

distance=v\,*\, t

distance_x=49\,(0.01)=0.49\\distance_y=11\,(0.01)=0.11

Therefore, adding these displacements in component form to the original particle's position, we get:

New position: (7 + 0.49, 2 + 0.11) = (7.49, 2.11)

Acrostic poem for cell theory. Especially theory
Sonja [21]

Answer:

In biology, cell theory is the historic scientific theory, now universally accepted, that living organisms are made up of cells, that they are the basic structural/organizational unit of all organisms, and that all cells come from pre-existing cells. Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of reproduction.

Explanation:

The three tenets to the cell theory are as described below:

All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.

The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.

Cells arise from pre-existing cells.

There is no universally accepted definition of life. Some biologists consider non-cellular entities such as viruses living organisms,[1] and thus reasonably disagree with the first tenet. Throughout this article, it will lead you through the history of cell theory, how the discovery of cells was made possible, what the cell theory has become today and background information and history regarding other opposing concepts of cell theory.

Observations of galaxies and clusters of galaxies indicate that about ____ percent of the matter in the universe is dark matter.
Setler79 [48]

All the stars, spheres and galaxies that can be perceived nowadays make up just 5 percent of the universe. The former 95 percent is prepared of stuff stargazers can't see, notice or even understand. These secretive substances are called dark energy and dark matter. Experts determine their presence grounded on their gravitational influence on what little bits of the universe can be perceived.

Which type of heat transfer can happen even if there are no particles of matter? A. Conduction B. Radiation C. Convection D. Ins
Naddik [55]

Heat can travel as<em> radiation</em>, even if there are no particles of matter
along the way.  Which is really lucky, because that's how we get
heat from the sun.  And light too.

Why is the air drag on a baseball different than it would be for a smooth ball with no stitches? How does this apply to the desi
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The stitches and dimples around a baseball  and a golf ball respectively, disturbs the air drag on the balls once they are in motion, allowing the them to travel more easily.

Explanation:

The stitches on a baseball disturbs the air drag on the ball when the ball is in motion, allowing the ball to travel more easily. Depending on the orientation of the ball in flight, the drag changes as the flow is disturbed by the stitches.  

A smooth ball with no stitches or dimples has more air drag that opposes the motion.

A golf ball is smooth ball with dimples to create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the ball's surface. This allows the smoothly flowing air to follow the ball's surface a little farther around the back side of the ball, thereby decreasing the size of the wake, and allowing the ball to travel more easily.
