Which term describes the reaction process in a fission reaction?

klasskru [66]

The correct answer is

A. Chain reaction

This is how the chain reaction works in a process of nuclear fission:

1) Slow-moving neutrons reach heavy, unstable, radioactive nuclei (such as Uranium-235)

2) The neutrons interact with the nuclei of Uranium, which break apart producing smaller nuclei and additional neutrons

3) The neutrons produced in the reaction are slowed down by a moderator (e.g. water) and they interact with new nuclei of Uranium, causing new fission reactions)

4) The new neutrons interact with new nuclei of Uranium, and so on...

A briefcase sits stationary in an elevator. The mass of the briefcase if 4.5 kg. The elevator then begins accelerating upwards a

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

D. 48.985 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that:

$\sum F = ma$

which means that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the object's mass and its acceleration.

The equation of the forces for the briefcase in the elevator therefore is given by:

$N-mg=ma$

where

N is the normal reaction exerted on the briefcase

(mg) is the weight of the briefcase, with

m = 4.5 kg being its mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

a = 1.10 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Here we chose upward as positive direction.

Solving for N, we find the normal force:

$N=mg+ma=m(g+a)=(4.5)(9.81+1.10)=49.095 N$

So the closest answer is

D. 48.985 N

I have an object that I want to know when it was made. I calculate that the object contains 0.12g of Iodine-131 but started with

Sav [38]

Answer: 71.72 days

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the <u>Radioactive Half Life Formula: </u>

$A=A_{o}.2^{\frac{-t}{h}}$ (1)

Where:

$A=0.12 g$ is the final amount of Iodine-131

$A_{o}=60 g$ is the initial amount of Iodine-131

$t$ is the time elapsed

$h=8 days$ is the half life of Iodine-131

Knowing this, let's substitute the values and find $t$ from (1):

$0.12 g=(60 g)2^{\frac{-t}{8 days}}$ (2)

$\frac{0.12 g}{60g}=2^{\frac{-t}{8 days}}$ (3)

Applying natural logarithm in both sides:

$ln(\frac{0.12 g}{60g})=ln(2^{\frac{-t}{8 days}})$ (4)

$-6.21=-\frac{t}{8 days}ln(2)$ (5)

Finding $t$ :

$t=71.72 days$
