In a nuclear fusion reaction two 2H atoms are combined to produce one 4He.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a)= 0.025602u

b) = 23.848MeV

c) N = 1.546 × 10¹³

Explanation:

The reaction is

²₁H + ²₁H ⇄ ⁴₂H + Q

a) The mass difference is

Δm = 2m(²₁H) - m (⁴₂H)

= 2(2.014102u) - 4.002602u

= 0.025602u

b) Use the Einstein mass energy relation ship

The enegy release is the mass difference times 931.5MeV/U

E = (0.025602) (931.5)

= 23.848MeV

the number of reaction need per seconds is

N = Q/E

= 59W/ 23.848MeV

$= \frac{59}{(23.848 \times 10^6 )(1.6 \times 10^1^9) } \\\\= 1.546 \times 10^1^3$

N = 1.546 × 10¹³

What is the gravitational acceleration close to the surface of a planet with a mass of 9ME and radius of 3RE, where ME and RE ar

Papessa [141]

Answer:

9.78 m/s²

Explanation:

To solve this, we use the gravitational formula

g = GM/r², where

g = acceleration due to gravity

G = gravitational constant

M = mass of the planet

r = radius of the planet

From the question, we got that the mass of the planet is

M = 9ME, where ME = 5.95*10^24

M = 9 * 5.95*10^24

M = 5.355*10^25 kg

Also, the Radius of the planet, R = 3RE, where RE = 6.37*10^6

R = 3 * 6.37*10^6

R = 1.911*10^7 m

On applying the values of both R and M to the equation, we get

g = GM/r²

g = (6.67*10^-11 * 5.355*10^25) / (1.911*10^7)²

g = 3.57*10^15/3.65*10^14

g = 9.78 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 9.78 m/s²

When refrigeration can’t work how does the molecules work to keep it cool

Simora [160]

The compressor constricts the refrigerant vapor, raising its pressure, and pushes it into the coils on the outside of the refrigerator. 2. When the hot gas in the coils meets the cooler air temperature of the kitchen, it becomes a liquid. ... The refrigerant absorbs the heat inside the fridge, cooling down the air.

17. Suppose you were standing on a scale in an elevator in free fall. What would the scale read?

lianna [129]

What would the scale read? zero

18 In free fall you are being pulled by a gravity. "Truly" weightless presumably happens in deep space where there is nothing to pull you.
