Answer:

B. Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

- Nuclear fusion is the process in which small nuclei (such as hydrogen) fuse together into heavier nuclei (for example, helium). In such process, the final mass of the product is less than the sum of the masses of the initial nuclei, therefore the mass which 'disappeared' has been converted into energy, according to Einstein's equation:

E=\Delta m c^2

where

\Delta m is the difference of mass between products and reactants

c is the speed of light

Because c is a very large value (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s), the amount of energy released during nuclear fusion is very huge, even for very small masses. This is the process that occurs inside the core of a star, and because of that, stars are able to produce very huge amounts of energy.

Find the ratio of effusion rates of hydrogen gas and krypton gas.
algol13

Answer:

RE of Hydrogen = 6.47 x RE of Krypton

Explanation:

Actually the correct formula for comparing rate of effusion (RE) of two gases is:

RE of Gas A

------------------- = √ ( Molar mass of B / Molar mass of A)

RE of Gas B

You can designate which of the two gases you have (hydrogen and krypton) will be your gas A and gas B. So for this particular problem, let us make hydrogen as gas A and Krypton as gas B. So the equation becomes:

RE of Hydrogen

------------------------- = √ (Molar mass of Krypton / Molar mass of Hydrogen)

RE of Krypton

Get the molar masses of Hydrogen and Krypton in the periodi table:

RE of Hydrogen

------------------------- = √ (83.798 g/mol / 2 g/mol)

RE of Krypton

RE of Hydrogen

------------------------- = 6.47  ====> this can also be written as:

RE of Krypton

RE of Hydrogen = 6.47 x RE of Krypton

It means that the rate of effusion of Hydrogen gas will be 6.47 faster than the rate of effusion of Krypton gas. With the type of question you have, it doesn't matter which gases goes on your numerator and denominator. What's important is that you show the rate of effusion of a gas with respect to the other. But if that's concerns you the most, then take the gas which was stated first as your gas A and the latter as your gas B unless the problem tells you which one will be on top and which is in the bottom.

A 10 N force is applied to a 2 kg mass, how fast will it be going in 10 seconds
prisoha [69]
Since
Force (weight) = mass x acceleration (gravity)

To determine acceleration, the formula will be:
Acceleration = Force / mass

Given are:
F = 10 N
M = 2kg
A = ?

Solution:

1. A = F/M
2. A = 10 kg*m/s2 / 2kg
3. A = 5 m/s2

2. The water is then heated to its boiling point. Calculate the specific latent heat of
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

2465 J/g

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to boil a sample of water already at boiling point is given by

Q=m\lambda_v

where

m is the mass of the water sample

\lambda_v is the specific latent heat of vaporization of water

In this problem, we know

Q=813,600 J

m = 330 g

Solving the equation for \lambda_v, we find

\lambda_v = \frac{Q}{m}=\frac{813600}{330}=2465 J/g
