Mariulka [41]3 years ago

Explanation :

Einstein's equation is given by :

E=m\times c^2..............(1)

m is the mass

c is the speed of light c=3\times 10^8\ m/s

The energy needed to split an atom into separate protons, neutrons, and electrons can be calculated by using equation (1).

The energy needed to split the nucleus into separate protons and neutrons is called nuclear binding energy.

The energy needed to remove an electron from an atom is called ionization energy.

The energy needed to add an electron to an atom is called electron affinity.

So, the correct option is (A).

Answer;

-The energy needed to split an atom into separate protons, neutrons, and electrons

Explanation;

E = mc² The equation is derived directly from Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity .

Each of the letters of E = mc2 stands for a particular physical quantity. Writing them out in full we get:

Energy = mass × the speed of light squared

In other words:  E = energy (measured in joules, J),  m = mass (measured in kilograms, kg),  c = the speed of light (measured in metres per second, ms-1), but this needs to be squared.

There's no such thing as "stationary in space".  But if the distance

measured here would match the actual wavelengths emitted from these

the trick is:  How do we know the actual wavelengths the star emitted ?

1. A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a cliff with an initial speed of 8 m/s and lands 16 m from the base of
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity = 8 m/s

Distance s = 16 m

Starting acceleration (a) = 0

Computation:

s = ut + 1/2a(t)²

16 = 8t

t = 2 sec

Height of cliff = S

Gravitational acceleration = 10 m/s

S = 1/2a(t)²

S = 1/2(10)(2)²

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)

Estimate the total number of bacteria and other prokaryotes in the biosphere of the earth. (assume the bacteria are found to a d
Fofino [41]
Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:

V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³

Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:

2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria

1. Space probes have not landed on Pluto yet. Describe three types of information you would collect if you were designing the pr
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Space probes are made to conduct science experiments. They do not have people on them. Space probes have helped scientists get information about our solar system. Most probes are not designed to return to Earth. Some have landed on other planets! Others have flown past the planets and taken pictures of them for scientists to see. There are even some space probes that go into orbit around other planets and study them for a long time. The information they gather is used to help us understand the weather and other changes which happen on planets other than the Earth. This information is important in helping to plan other space missions such as ones to Mars and to Saturn.
