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

Physics
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
4 0

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

Elsa runs 100m. She takes 20s to run this distance. What is Elsa's average speed?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Average speed = 5 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 100m

Time = 20 secs

To find the average speed;

Speed = distance/time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Speed = 100/20

Speed = 5m/s

Therefore, Elsa's average speed is 5 meters per seconds.

The initial kinetic energy imparted to a 0.020 kg bullet is 1200 J. (a) Assuming it
Lilit [14]

Answer:

(a) Power= 207.97 kW

(b) Range= 5768.6 meter

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of bullet, m=0.02 kg

Kinetic energy imparted, K=1200 J

Length of rifle barrel, d=1 m

(a)

Let the speed of bullet when it leaves the barrel is v.

Kinetic energy, K=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1200}{0.02} }

=346.4m/s

Initial speed of bullet, u=0

The average speed in the barrel, v_a_v_g=\frac{u+v}{2}

=\frac{0+346.4}{2} \\=173.2 m/s

Time taken by bullet to cross the barrel, t=\frac{d}{v}

=\frac{1}{173.2}\\ =0.00577 second

Power, P_a_v_g=\frac{W}{t}

=\frac{1200}{0.00577} \\=207.97kW

(b)

In projectile motion,

Maximum height, H_m=\frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g} \\

Range, R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}

given that, H_m=R

then, \frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\sin^2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta\\\\\tan\theta=4\\\theta=\tan^-^14\\\theta=75.96^0\\R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\=\frac{346.4^2\times\sin(2\times75.96)}{9.8}\\5768.6 meter

Why is permeable soil best for plants that need a lot of drainage? Water fills this type of soil. Water dries up in this type of
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Water flows through this type of soil.

Explanation:

By definition permeable soil is soil which water and other fluid flow easily through (like sand) If a plant needs drainage the soil will need to flow through the soil easily.
