Nuclear fusion releases gamma rays
BARSIC [14]4 years ago
3 0

The correct answer to the question is : Nuclear fusion.

EXPLANATION:

Nuclear fusion is the thermonuclear reaction in which light unstable nuclei will fuse with each other to form heavy stable nuclei with the release of energy.

This energy is released due to the mass defect.

Photosynthesis, anaerobic respiration are the life processes where gamma rays can not be emitted.

Similarly photoelectric emission results no gamma radiation. In this process, electrons are emitted from the surface of the metal when light of suitable frequency falls on it.

Hence, the correct answer is nuclear fusion where gamma energy is produced due to radioactive process.

Savannah drove 716 miles on Monday. She drove another 572 miles on Tuesday. About how many miles did she drive
Korolek [52]

Explanation:

We have,

Savannah drove 716 miles on Monday and She drove another 572 miles on Tuesday.

It is required to find the total distance covered by her altogether. It is equal to the sum of distance covered on Monday and distance covered on Tuesday. So,

d = 716 miles + 572 miles

d = 1288 miles

So, she drive 1288 miles altogether.

Why was it difficult for people to accept a heliocentric concept of the solar system
Vsevolod [243]
Prior to the discovery and elaboration of Copernicus with the theory of heliocentricism, which states that the sun is the center of the universe and that the planets orbit around it in a circular manner. The theory of geocentrism was first published by another astronomer and philosopher, Ptolemy. As a custom in the early years of the society, people already stood for the idea that the earth is the center of the universe which is easy to believe at that time given that their perspective shows that the sun moves when observed from earth's atmosphere.

PLZZZZZZZZZ HELPPPPP. BRAINLEST GIVEN What is a force of attraction between an object and the earth due to gravity?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

acceleration due to gravity: -9.8 m/s^2

Fg=mass of object*(-9.8)

Explanation:

This is a pretty vague question, but I'll answer as best I can.

All matter has gravity. YOU have gravity, although your gravitational pull is small. So, the force of attraction between the Earth and an object on Earth is modeled as

Force of gravity=(Gravitational constant*mass of object 1*mass of object  2)/distance between objects squared

Note that distance between an object on Earth and Earth is the radius of Earth (distance to Earth's core/center of mass)
