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.

45 km/have to m/s solution
Slav-nsk [51]
We know, 1 m/s = 3.6 Km/h
So, 45 Km/h = 45/3.6 = 12.5 m/s

In short, It would be equal to 12.5 m/s

Hope this helps!

12. The red light emitted by a He-Ne laser has a wavelength of 6.33 x 10^-7 m in the air and travels 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. Find the fr
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

f = 4.76 × 10^14 Hz

Frequency of the laser light f = 4.76 × 10^14 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength = 6.33 x 10^-7 m

Speed of light v = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s.

Frequency of the laser light f

= speed of light/wavelength

Substituting the given values;

f = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s ÷ 6.33 x 10^-7 m

f = 4.76 × 10^14 Hz

Frequency of the laser light f = 4.76 × 10^14 Hz

The bohr model of the atom addressed the problem of
cupoosta [38]
Rutherford's nuclear model stated that a cloud of negative electrons surround the nucleus however scientists realized that electrons in a cloud around the nucleus of an atom would be attracted to the nucleus, causing the atom to collapse. Thus Bohr's model proposed that electrons were contained in shells and they orbit the nucleus at fixed distances.
