Answer:

The change in the mass of the nuclear fuel due to the energy being taken from the reactor is 0.81 kg

Explanation:

Given:

P = power 2.3x10⁹W

The energy taking from the reactor is:

E = P * t = 2.3x10⁹ * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 = 7.25x10¹⁶J

The change in the mass is:

E = Δm * c²

Where c is speed of light in vacuum

Δm = E/c² = 7.25x10¹⁶/(3x10⁸)² = 0.81 kg

Answer:

change in mass = 2.41*10^{8}kg

Explanation:

The change in the mass can be computed by using the relation

E=\Delta mc^2\\\Delta m=\frac{E}{c^2}(1)

That is, the energy liberated comes from the mass of the nuclear fuel. The energy generated in one year is

E=Pt=2.3*10^{9}\frac{J}{s}*1 year*\frac{365.25 day}{1 year}*\frac{24h}{1 day}*\frac{3600s}{1h}=7.25*10^{16}J

Hence, by replacing in the equation (1) you have  (c=3*10^{8}m/s)

\Delta m=\frac{7.25*10^{16}J}{3*10^{8}\frac{m}{s}}=2.41*10^{8}kg

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

Yes

Explanation:

It is a reasonable result obtained.

Error = true value - measured value

true value = 24.5

measured value = 24.2

Error =  24.5 - 24.2 = 0.3g

 The error reported in the reading is 0.3g

The reason why we had a disparity in the figures obtained from this measurement is primarily due to some erroneous scale.

The mixture at the end of the day is a solution.

We are expected to have the same mass but due to experimental or some form of random error introduced, we noticed a difference.

The value obtained is quite logical as we only had a deviation of 0.3g.

In stars mor massive than the sun, fusion continues until the core is almost all....
serious [3.7K]
In stars more massive than the sun, the core temperature is hotter, which allows for fusion of more complex elements.

Most of the fusion occurs in the core.

In stars more massive than the sun, fusion continues through Deuterium, Carbon, and finally reaching iron/nickel.

Up to this point, the fusion reaction was endothermic, which means that the energy expended to produce the fusion reaction was exceeded by the energy produced in the reaction.

Fusion past iron is exothermic, and therefore the star will be able to survive by fusing elements heavier than iron.

After the core is almost entirely iron, the star is no longer in the Main Sequence.

So, fusion in stars more massive than the sun continue fusing until the core is almost entirely <em>iron</em>.
