What is a characteristic of nuclear fusion but not nuclear fission?

2 answers:

5 0

The answer is the energy of stars.

Fission is the type of nuclear energy simulated on earth, as it is the one used to generate electricity. Fusion, on the other hand, is much more complicated to achieve because it requires extremely hot temperatures compared to fission.

What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if 2000 J of energy are required to raise the temperature of 4 grams of the su

Dmitriy789 [7]

The energy required to heat a substance is related by the formula:
Q = mCpΔT ; where Q is the energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cp is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.
2000 = (4)(Cp)(5)
Cp = 100 Joules / g °C

How do I calculate the tension in the horizontal string?

matrenka [14]

ANSWER

T₂ = 10.19N

EXPLANATION

Given:

• The mass of the ball, m = 1.8kg

First, we draw the forces acting on the ball, adding the vertical and horizontal components of each one,

In this position, the ball is at rest, so, by Newton's second law of motion, for each direction we have,

$\begin{gathered} T_{1y}-F_g=0_{}_{}_{} \\ T_2-T_{1x}=0 \end{gathered}$

The components of the tension of the first string can be found considering that they form a right triangle, where the vector of the tension is the hypotenuse,

$\begin{gathered} T_{1y}=T_1\cdot\cos 30\degree \\ T_{1x}=T_1\cdot\sin 30\degree \end{gathered}$

We have to find the tension in the horizontal string, T₂, but first, we have to find the tension 1 using the first equation,

$T_1\cos 30\degree-m\cdot g=0$

Solve for T₁,

$T_1=\frac{m\cdot g}{\cos30\degree}=\frac{1.8kg\cdot9.8m/s^2}{\cos 30\degree}\approx20.37N$

Now, we use the second equation to find the tension in the horizontal string,

$T_2-T_1\sin 30\degree=0$

Solve for T₂,

$T_2=T_1\sin 30\degree=20.37N\cdot\sin 30\degree\approx10.19N$

Hence, the tension in the horizontal string is 10.19N, rounded to the nearest hundredth.

If a hot steel tool of 1200°C was put in a bucket to cool and the bucket contained 15L of water of 15°C, and the water temperatu

Mashcka [7]

3.6 kg.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

How much heat does the hot steel tool release?

This value is the same as the amount of heat that the 15 liters of water has absorbed.

Temperature change of water:

$\Delta T = T_2 - T_1= 48\; \textdegree{\text{C}}- 15\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ .

Volume of water:

$V = 15 \; \text{L} = 15 \; \text{dm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3}$ .

Mass of water:

$m = \rho \cdot V = 1.00 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{cm}^{-3} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g}$ .

Amount of heat that the 15 L water absorbed:

$Q = c\cdot m \cdot \Delta T = 4.18 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} \times 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}$ .

What's the mass of the hot steel tool?

The specific heat of carbon steel is $0.49 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1}$ .

The amount of heat that the tool has lost is the same as the amount of heat the 15 L of water absorbed. In other words,

$Q(\text{absorbed}) = Q(\text{released}) =2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}$ .

$\Delta T = T_2 - T_1 = 1200\; \textdegree{\text{C}} -{\bf 48}\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ .

$m = \dfrac{Q}{c\cdot \Delta T} = \dfrac{2.06910 \times 10^{6} \; \text{J}}{0.49\; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}} = 3.6 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} = 3.6 \; \text{kg}$ .
