Answer:

Yes, why has been explained

Explanation:

Yes, Fusion takes place in the atmosphere of stars. Mostly stars are composed of hydrogen and helium, small quantity of other heavier elements.

The stars get their energy by the fusion reaction that continuously takes place inside them. The fusion of two hydrogen molecules to form a helium molecule. This reaction generates enormous amount of heat and light, which why the stars are so shiny and hot.

Determine the total impedance of an LRC circuit connected to a 10.0- kHz, 725-V (rms) source if L = 36.00 mL, R = 10.00 kÎ©, and

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

10042.6 ohm

Explanation:

f = 10 kHz = 10000 Hz, L = 36 mH = 0.036 H, R = 10 kilo Ohm = 10000 ohm

C = 5 nF = 5 x 10^-9 F

XL = 2 x π x f x L

XL = 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 0.036 = 2260.8 ohm

Xc = 1 / ( 2 x π x f x C) = 1 / ( 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 5 x 10^-9)

Xc = 3184.7 ohm

Total impedance is Z.

Z^2 = R^2 + (XL - Xc)^2

Z^2 = 10000^2 + ( 2260.8 - 3184.7 )^2

Z = 10042.6 ohm

A car is traveling at a speed of 54 km/h. Breaks are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of -0.5 m/s2. Find how far

Lena [83]

Explanation:

u=54 km/h

54*5/18=15 m/s

v=0m/s

t=?

acceleration=-0.5m/s^2

we know that a=v-u/t

so,

t=v-u/a

t=15-0/0.5

=15/0.5

=30

therefore, the time is 30 second

Hope this answer helps you..

Due to efficiency considerations related to its bow wake, the supersonic transport aircraft must maintain a cruising speed that

givi [52]

Answer:

decreases.

Explanation:

When the aircraft is flies from the warm air into the colder air then its speed will be decreases.

as we know that

we know mach number is constant

so that here Mach number M is expressed as

M = $\frac{u}{v}$ .............................1

here u is Local flow velocity with respect to the boundarie and v is the speed of sound in the medium

If the aircraft flies from hot air to cold air, the speed of sound in the medium will decrease. But the Mach number remains constant. Therefore, the local flow velocity relative to the boundaries also decreases.
