What conditions are required for nuclear fusion that prevent it from being used to generate electric energy?

Physics

Alona [7]3 years ago

Answer: the extremely high energy and temperature needed to start and keep the reaction.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of atomic nulei.

Those reactions are able to release huge amounts of energy.

Sun energy comes from fusion reactions, mainly the combination of two hydrogen atoms to form one helium atom. As said with the release of energy.


Nuclar fusion requires extremely high energies to start and keep a reaction. That energy can only be achived with temperatures greater than 40 million kelvins, which so far has been achived only with atomic bomb explosions.

Also, the materials to handle those temperatures, when you talk about confining the reaction, are not available, so far.

The student soon loses his balance and falls backwards off the board at a velocity of 1.0 m/s. Assuming momentum is conserved in
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

v2 = 27.3m/s

Explanation:

Assuming forward as positive.

Mass = m1 = 64kg

Let v be the common velocity of the student and the skateboard.

mass of skateboard = m2 = 5.94kg

v = 1.4m/s

Since the skateboard and the student are initially moving together at the same velocity their momentum together is

(m1 + m2)v

Let the final velocity of the student be v1 and the final velocity of the skateboard be v2

v1 = – 1.0m/s (falls backwards that's why the velocity is negative since we are assuming forward as positive)

Then from conservation of momentum, momentum before is equal to momentum after.

(m1 + m2)v = m1v1 + m2v2

m2v2= (m1 + m2)v – m1v1

v2 = ( (m1 + m2)v – m1v1)/m2

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 – 64×(-1.0))/5.94

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 + 64×1.0)/5.94

v2 = 27.3m/s
