Answer:

Solar flare

Explanation:

In the Sun when there is an sudden increase in brightness which is generally accompanied by a coronal mass ejection it is known as a solar flare. Solar flares occur close to Sun spot.

Coronal mass ejection is the release of matter (plasma) with a strong magnetic field from the corona of the Sun.

The energy they release ranges between 10^{20}-10^{25}\ Joules which is comparable to 100-megaton hydrogen bombs exploding simultaneously

What does Atomic Collisions mean
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Atomic and molecular collision processes are the physical interactions of atoms and molecules when they are brought into close contact with each other and with electrons, protons, neutrons or ions. This includes energy-conserving elastic scattering and inelastic scattering.

The force that binds atoms together to form molecules is
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The electromagnetic force

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is the force that acts between any particles having mass. It is relevant only on very large scales (planets, stars), since it is the weakest of the 4 forces, so very large masses are needed in order to produce relevant effects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force that acts between particles with electric charge. It can be attractive or repulsive. It is the main force that acts between atoms and molecules.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force that keeps the protons and the neutrons together inside the nucleus. It acts only on very short scales (only within the nucleus of the atom)

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for the radioactive decays of certain nuclei. It also acts on very short scales.

Therefore, the force that is responsible for binding atoms together to form molecules is the electromagnetic force.

BigorU [14]

Answer:

inertia

Explanation:

The property of matter that will keep the body in motion when the car comes to a halt is the inertia force.

Inertia is the ability of a body to remain in static position. It is the tendency to remain in a stable condition where there is no motion.

  • Newton's first law is the law of inertia and it states that a body remain in a state of rest or of uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
  • The ability to remain in state of rest by a body is predicated on the force of inertia.

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 64.g bullet moving at a speed of 411.ms . Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the bullet is 5.4 × 10³ J

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of kinetic energy is the following:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

KE = kinetic energy.

m = mass of the bullet.

v = speed of the bullet.

Let´s convert the mass unit to kg so that our result is in Joules:

64 g · ( 1 kg / 1000 g) = 0.064 kg

Then, the kinetic energy will be the following:

KE = 1/2 · 0.064 kg · (411 m/s)²

KE = 5.4 × 10³ J
