In the nuclear chain reaction of uranium-235, what particle reacts with the uranium nucleus to make it unstable?

Physics

The neutron. As a neutron breaks apart the nucleus of a uranium atom, it causes a chain reaction releasing more neutrons. When we control this reaction we can harness the energy and produce nuclear power. When the reaction is left unchecked you get a immensely powerful release of energy, an atomic bomb.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

A closed system.

Explanation:

The three major types of system are: open, closed and isolated. Open system interacts with its surroundings with respect to its particles and energy. A closed system interacts with its surroundings with respect to energy but not its particles. While an isolated system does not interact with its surroundings in any way.

Therefore, after the jar is sealed, it is an example of a closed system. This is because the emitted gas could not escape into the surroundings, but thermal energy was emitted into its surroundings after the chemical reaction has taken place.

PLEASE ANYONE SOLVE THIS NOW FAST PLEASE IM IN A HURRY
m_a_m_a [10]

Hello,

<u>Solution for A:</u>

Force = 3.00N

Mass = 0.50 Kgs

Time = 1.50 Seconds

According to newton's second law of motion;

Force = Mass times Acceleration(a)

3.00 = 0.50 * a

a = 3.00/0.50 = 6.00 m/s^2

We know that acceleration = Velocity / time

So Velocity = time * acceleration = 1.50 * 6 = 9.00 m/s^2

<u>Solution for B:</u>

The net force = 4.00N - 3.00N = 1.00N to the left

Force = 1.00N

Mass = 0.50Kg

Time = 3.00 Seconds

Again; F = MA (Where F is force, M is mass and A is acceleration)

1.00N = 0.5 * A

A = 1/0.5 = 2 m/s^2

Velocity = Acceleration * Time = 2 * 3 = 6 m/s

What is the emf of a battery that increases the electric potential energy of 0.060 CC of charge by 0.70 JJ as it moves it from t
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

emf = 11.667 V

Explanation:

Given: charge q = 0.060 C, electric potential energy E =0.70 J,

Solution :

by definition 1 volt = 1 joule per coulomb

so Voltage = emf = E/C

emf =  0.70 J / 0.060 C

emf = 11.667 V
