A deuteron, 21H, is the nucleus of a hydrogen isotope and consists of one proton and one neutron. The plasma of deuterons in a n

Answer:

1917723.40119 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of deuteron = (1.637+1.675)\times 10^{-27}=3.312\times 10^{-27}

k = Boltzmann constant = 1.381\times 10^{-23}\ J/K

T = Temperature = 2.94\times 10^8\ K

RMS velocity is given by

V_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3kT}{m}}\\\Rightarrow V_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 1.381\times 10^{-23}\times 2.94\times 10^8}{3.312\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow V_r=1917723.40119\ m/s

The RMS velocity of the deutrons is 1917723.40119 m/s

Discuss why the article says the fact that we’re in our universe complicates our understanding of the expansion of the universe.
MArishka [77]
<span>Because of our perception of the universe from inside the universe, we are unable to see how and towards what the universe is expanding. Also, our understanding of it is further complicated because we are moving as part of the expansion, thus distorting our perception of it.</span>

It is generally seen that, when a substance absorbs heat energy, its heating curve shows two plateaus. Which phenomenon is indic
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is;

Change of phase.

Explanation:

When the physical state in which a substance exists in nature changes to another physical state such as a change from solid state to a liquid stat or from a liquid state to a gaseous state, the substance is said to have undergone a phase change, or phase transformation.

The state of a substance will change, depending on the surrounding temperature and the applied pressure and the energy required for the substance to change its state is known as latent heat.

The observed plateaus are periods the latent heat is absorbed to completely change the phase of the substance.

The focal length for a spherical convex mirror is –20 cm. What is its radius of curvature?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:

f=-\frac{R}{2}

rewriting for R:

R=-2f=-2*-20cm=40 cm.

If you are given distance and a period of time what can you calculate
Digiron [165]

If you are given distance and a period of time, you can calculate the speed. The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion (e.g. 60 km/h to the north).
