Answer:

The greatest legacy of the Enlightenment was to reinforce the human need to reason in the face of all the questions of his life.

Explanation:

Enlightenment brought significant traits to that period and the unfolding of a new time, in which man, who previously lived in the "darkness of ignorance", becomes the center of attention, because the act of reasoning elevates him, and this act able to lead you to happiness and truth. Therefore the autonomy of reason is a determining factor for man.

The Enlightenment was a philosophical and pedagogical movement whose ideals consisted of rational thinking that should be carried forward replacing the beliefs and mysticism that block human evolution, so that man no longer seeks answers in faith to solve his problems and problems. your doubts and rely only on reason.

The Enlightenment movement was a moment of outburst of ideas and, as I said, greatly benefited society, on the other hand it can be said that many took advantage of the situation to benefit themselves. It is up to every good man, in the light of reason, to think of a more just and fraternal society in which all are in fact worthy of life. Being the man endowed with reason, that this one can favor the growth of the same one in favor of a better world.

8. Contrast. The energy that can be released during a nuclear fission reaction with the energy that can be released during a nuc

Cloud [144]

8) the energy released by fusion is generally 3 to 4 times larger than with fission. Fission has very few by-products but fusion releases large amounts of radioactive particles because it starts with large nuclei.
9) Alpha particles are 2 protons and 2 neutrons all put together. It's really the nucleus of a helium atom. It is most dangerous if you ingest it but it can be stopped with a sheet of paper so outside the body it's not as dangerous as others and due to its size it can't get very far in the air before hitting air molecules
beta particles are high energy electrons or positrons. They travel further due to their small size but can be stopped by a thin barrier of plastic or wood.
Gamma rays are high frequency photons (light) They are stopped by metal plates and go through human tissue. They are quite dangerous.
10) The mass that is lost in chemical reactions is very small. Solve E=mc² for mass and you get m=E/c². This says the mass you lose is equal to the energy you gained divided by the speed of light squared. c² is a VERY big number so you need a lot of energy produced to notice it. Chemical reactions are simply too inefficient to get that much energy out.
11)You need high temperatures for fusion because you're trying to push two atoms together (to "fuse" them as the name suggests) The electrons in one atom repel the other electrons in the other atoms. When stripped down to only protons, you still have to overcome this repulsion (Coulomb repulsion). High temperatures means high velocity of the particles in the plasma. This gives them enough "oomph" to get close enough to fuse. Once close enough to each other, the nuclear force takes over and overwhelms the Coulomb repulsion and the nuclei fuse and release energy in doing so.

A man with a mass of 65.0 kg skis down a frictionless hill that is 5.00 m high. At the bottom of the hill the terrain levels out

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 4.823 m

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of man, m = 65.0 kg

Height of the hill, H = 5.00 m

Mass of the backpack, m' = 20.0 kg

Height of ledge, h = 2 m

Now,

To calculate the horizontal distance from the edge of the ledge:

Making use of the principle of conservation of energy both at the top and bottom of the hill (frictionless), the total mechanical energy will remain conserved.

Now,

$KE_{initial} + PE_{initial} = KE_{final} + PE_{final}$

where

KE = Kinetic energy

PE = Potential energy

Initially, the man starts, form rest thus the velocity at start will be zero and hence the initial Kinetic energy will also be zero.

Also, the initial potential energy will be converted into the kinetic energy thus the final potential energy will be zero.

Therefore,

$0 + mgH = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + 0$

$2gH = v^{2}$

$v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5} = 9.89\ m/s$

where

v = velocity at the hill's bottom

Now,

Making use of the principle of conservation of momentum in order to calculate the velocity after the inclusion, v' of the backpack:

$mv = (m + m')v'$

$65.0\times 9.89 = (65.0 + 20.0)v'$

$v' = 7.56\ m/s$

Now, time taken for the fall:

$h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{9.8} = 0.638\ s$

Now, the horizontal distance is given by:

x = v't = $7.56\times 0.638 = 4.823\ m$

Suppose you want to test the hypothesis that plants grow taller when they receive more sunlight. Identify and independent variab

ollegr [7]

The result that should be established is in the form
y = f(x)
where x, the amount of sunlight is the controlled (independent) variable,
y = height (growth) that corresponds to the amount of sunlight. Therefore y depends on x.

Clearly,
x, the amount of sunlight is the independent variable. It can be controlled.
y, the measured amount of growth is the dependent variable.

Answer:
The independent variable is the amount of sunlight.
The dependent variable is the growth.
