nuclear energy

Explanation:

The sunlight that reaches earth is generated by a transformation of nuclear energy. Radiant energy is a from of energy that reaches the earth from nuclear reactions in the core of the sun.

  • In this process, light nuclei combines to form larger ones through the process of nuclear fusion.
  • This process does not conserve energy and mass is converted to energy.
  • The nuclear reaction produces huge energy that goes into the solar system space and lights it up.
  • Therefore, it is a transformation of nuclear energy into radiant energy.
  • The radiant energy is made up of electromagnetic radiations.

Tema [17]

Answer:

33.6\times10^{-4}}\text{ m} = 3.36 mm

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR (Voltage = Current * Resistance)

R = \dfrac{V}{I}

The geometric definition of resistance is

R = \rho\dfrac{l}{A}

where \rho is the resistivity of the material, l  and A are the length and cross-sectional area, respectively.

A = \rho\dfrac{l}{R}

A = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

Since the wire is assumed to have a circular cross-section, its area is given by

A = \pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} where d is the diameter.

\pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{\pi\times V}}

Resistivity of copper = 1.68\times10^{-8}. With these and other given values,

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\times1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.5\times290}{3.14\times 0.55}}

d = \sqrt{1128.43\times10^{-8}}

d = 33.6\times10^{-4} \text{ m}

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Final vertical velocity = -29m/s

Horizontal distance = 100m

Height = 20.41m

Explanation:

1. The vertical final velocity can be calculated thus: vy = vyo - gt

Where;

vy = vertical velocity (m/s)

vyo = vertical initial velocity (20m/s)

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s²)

t = time (5s)

Hence, vy = vyo - gt

vy = 20 - (9.8 × 5)

vy = 20 - 49

vy = -29m/s

2. x = V0 x t

Where;

x = horizontal distance (m)

Vo = initial velocity

t = time (s)

x = 20 × 5

x = 100m

3. Maximum height = (voy)²/2g

= 20²/ 2 × 9.8

= 400/19.6

= 20.41m

Explain what happens to the energy in a group in a system if one object loses energy according to the Law of Conservation of Ene
konstantin123 [22]

energy never disappears, for example, if you give some kinetic energy to a ball and it stops few seconds later, friction steals this energy to ground which ball was going on. "Law of Conservation of Energy" tell us that energy can't disappear

What is the number of electrons that move past a point in a wire carrying 500 A of current in 4.0 minutes
mr Goodwill [35]
The current is defined as the amount of charge Q that passes through a given point of a wire in a time \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
Since I=500 A and the time interval is
\Delta t=4.0 min=240 s
the charge is
Q=I \Delta t=(500 A)(240 s)=1.2 \cdot 10^5 C

One electron has a charge of q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, therefore the number of electrons that pass a point in the wire during 4 minutes is
N= \frac{Q}{q}= \frac{1.2 \cdot 10^5 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C}=7.5 \cdot 10^{23} electrons
