Answer:

B. Nuclear fusion generates less radioactive waste than nuclear fission.

Explanation:

There are basically two types of nuclear reaction nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fission one molecule breaks into two atoms and generate enormous energy and in nuclear fusion two atoms combined and form a molecule. In nuclear fusion energy released is more than nuclear fission. And waste is generated more in case of nuclear fission.

The correct option is B.
Nuclear fission and fusion are two different types of nuclear reactions, through which energy may be obtained. Nuclear fission involves the splitting of a molecule into two different part in order to generate energy while nuclear fusion reaction involves the joining together of two elements in other to form one product. Nuclear fission generate much radioactive waste than nuclear fusion. The radioactive waste that is obtainable during nuclear fusion is less than 1% of that produce by nuclear fission.

Answer:

The ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is $2.27\times 10^{39}$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between electron and proton, $r=4.53\ A=4.53\times 10^{-10}\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F_e=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Gravitational force is given by :

$F_g=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

Where

$m_1$ is mass of electron, $m_1=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

$m_2$ is mass of proton, $m_2=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

$q_1$ is charge on electron, $q_1=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg$

$q_2$ is charge on proton, $q_2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{Gm_1m_2}$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}}$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}$

So, the ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is $2.27\times 10^{39}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A 25 kg child runs at a speed of 5.0 m/s and jumps onto a stationary shopping cart and holds on for dear life. The cart has mass

makkiz [27]

Answer:

3.38 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of child = m₁ = 25

Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s

Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg

Velocity of cart with child on top = v

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25\times 5+12\times 0}{25+12}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{125}{37}\\\Rightarrow v=3.38\ m/s$

Velocity of cart with child on top is 3.38 m/s

It takes 500 J of work to compress a spring 10 cm. What is the force constant of the spring? (b) When a 3.0 kg block is pushed a

NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²

500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,

k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m

b )

k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m

Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J

This energy gets dissipated by friction .

work done by friction = μ mg d

d is the distance traveled under friction

so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2

μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴ or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .
