<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A star is defined as a fixed point in the night sky which illuminates and is very large. the primary element present in stars is Hydrogen and it continuously changes to helium by a process known as Nuclear fusion reaction. This process releases a huge amount of energy.

Nuclear fusion reaction is defined as the combination of lighter nuclei to form a heavy nuclei. In Stars, hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom.

The reactions which takes place in stars follows a series of equations:

_1^1\textrm{H}+_1^1\textrm{H}\rightarrow _1^2\textrm{H}+_{+1}^0\textrm{e}+\text{energy}\\\\_1^2\textrm{H}+_1^1\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^3\textrm{He}+\text{energy}\\\\_2^3\textrm{He}+_1^1\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+_{+1}^0\textrm{e}+\text{energy}

Overall reaction for the above series of reactions is given by:

4_1^1\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+2_{+1}^0\textrm{e}+\text{energy}

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

Suppose a person pushes thumbtack that is 1/5 centimeter long into a bulletin board, and the force (in dynes) exerted when the d
mario62 [17]

Answer:

W = 290.7 dynes*cm

Explanation:

d = 1/5 cm = 0.2 cm

The force is in function of the depth x:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 2*x)^2

We can expand that as:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 4*x + 4x^2)

F(x) = 1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2

Work is defined as

W = F * d

Since we have non constant force we integrate

W = \int\limits^{0.2}_{0} {(1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2)} \, dx

W = [1000*x + 2000*x^2 + 1333*X^3] evaluated between 0 and 0.2

W = 1000*0.2 + 2000*0.2^2 + 1333*0.2^3 - 1000*0 - 2000*0^2 - 1333*0^3

W = 200 + 80 + 10.7 = 290.7 dynes*cm
