What is one way that fission and fusion are similar?

2 answers:

They both involve atoms. Other than that they're the exact opposite of each other. Fusion is putting atoms together. Fission is taking them apart.

One major way is that both release incredible amounts of energy, fusion perhaps more so than fission. This is why we here about fusion power plants being tested, because they could be a major solution to the global energy crisis.

Answer:

The angular separation equals $0.35^{o}$

Explanation:

We have according to Snell's law

$n_{1}sin(\theta _{1})=n_{2}sin(\theta _{2})$

$\therefore \theta _{2}=sin^{-1}(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta _{1})}{n_{2}})$

Using this equation for both the colors separately we have

$\theta _{red}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(23.90^{o})}{1.62})\\\\\theta _{red}=14.48^{o}$

Similarly for violet light we have

$\theta _{violet}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(23.90^{o})}{1.660})\\\\\theta _{violet}=14.13^{o}$

Thus the angular separation becomes

$\Delta \theta =14.48-14.13=0.35^{o}$

Suzie skydiver, who weighs 500 n, reaches terminal velocity of 90 km/h. the air resistance on suzie is then

masha68 [24]

<span>Weight of the skydiver m = 500 N
Terminal velocity V = 90 km/h
Here the weight of the person acts as the force, so based on the Newton's third law the applied is the force what we but in the opposite direction making the resistance. So the air resistance exerted on Suzie will be her weight that is 500N</span>

Which are characteristics of electromagnetic waves?check all that apply.

emmainna [20.7K]

Correct choices are marked in bold:

travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces

travel through space at the speed of light --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light, $c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ )

travel only through matter --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum

travel only through space --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter

can bend around objects --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits

move by particles bumping into each other --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved

move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave
