C. Three isotopes of the same element because the number of electrons and protons remain the same but the number of neutrons in the nucleus are different. This means that the isotopes have different masses to each other but the same chemical properties.
Answer:
<em>Element C will be best for a nuclear fission reaction</em>
Explanation:
<em>Nuclear fission is the splitting of the nucleus of a heavy atom by bombarding it with a nuclear particle. The reaction leads to the the atom splitting into two smaller elements and a huge amount of energy is liberated in the process.</em> For the reaction to be continuous in a chain reaction,<em> the best choice of element to use as fuel for the reaction should be the element whose nucleus also liberates a neutron particle after fission</em>. The neutron that is given off by other atoms in the reaction will then proceed to bombard other atoms of the element in the reaction, creating a cascade of fission and bombardment within the nuclear reactor.
Answer:
Q = 47.06 degrees
Explanation:
Given:
- The transmitted intensity I = 0.464 I_o
- Incident Intensity I = I_o
Find:
What angle should the principle axis make with respect to the incident polarization
Solution:
- The relation of transmitted Intensity I to to the incident intensity I_o on a plane paper with its principle axis is given by:
I = I_o * cos^2 (Q)
- Where Q is the angle between the Incident polarized Light and its angle with the principle axis. Hence, Using the relation given above:
Q = cos ^-1 (sqrt (I / I_o))
- Plug the values in:
Q = cos^-1 ( sqrt (0.464))
Q = cos^-1 (0.6811754546)
Q = 47.06 degrees
