How does nuclear fusion produce energy

Physics
1 answer:
prisoha [69]3 years ago
6 0
The fusion reaction that is easiest to accomplish is the reaction between two hydrogen isotopes: deuterium, extracted from water and tritium, produced during the fusion reaction through contact with lithium. When deuterium and tritium nuclei fuse, they form a helium nucleus, a neutron and a lot of energy.

3. What is electric current?<br> The flow of moving electrons<br><br> electrons that move one time
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

An electric current is a stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space. It is measured as the net rate of flow of electric charge through a surface or into a control volume. ... In electric circuits the charge carriers are often electrons moving through a wire.

What is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C ?
torisob [31]

0.02020 ohm is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C.

<h3 /><h3>What is a resistor?</h3>

A resistor is an electrical component that controls or restricts how much electrical current can pass across a circuit in an electronic device. A specified voltage can be supplied via resistors to an active device like a transistor.

The temperature of the resistor varies based on the variation in the temperature. The equation that describes the relationship between the two of them is:

R = R0[1+ alpha(T-T0)]  where:

R is the new resistance we are looking for

alpha is the temperature coefficient of resistance. For carbon rod, alpha = ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}(1/°c)

T0 is the standard temperature =25.8°C

R0 is the resistance at T0 = 0.0200 ohms

T is the temperature at which we want to get R = 0

Substitute in the equation to get R as follows:

R = 0.0200 [1+( ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}) (0-25.8)] = 0.02020 ohm

A radioactive substance decays according to the formula w = 20e¡kt grams where t is the time in hours. a find k given that after
blagie [28]
W=20 e(-kt)  
A. Rearranging gives k= -(ln(w/20)/t 
 Substituting w= 10 and solving gives k=0.014 
 B. Using W=20e(-kt). After 0 hours, W=20. After 24 hours, W=14.29g. After 1 week (24x7=168h) W=1.9g 
 C. Rearranging gives t=-(ln(10/20)/k. Substituting w=1 and solving gives t=214 hours. 
 D. Differentiating gives dW/ dt = -20ke(-kt). Solving for t=100 gives dW/dt = 0.07g/h. Solving for t=1000 gives 0.0000002g/h 
 E. dW/dt = -20ke(-kt). But W=20e(-kt) so dW/dt = -kW
