Answer:

The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

$D = \sqrt{(d_{m})^2+(d_{w})^2}$

Where, $d_{m}$ =distance of Machmer Hall

$d_{w}$ =distance of Witless

Put the value into the formula

$D = \sqrt{(400)^2+(180)^2}$

$D=438.63\ m$

Hence, The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

How would you describe the sequence of reactions in a hydrogen bomb? A) A fission reaction is used to trigger a fusion reaction.

sertanlavr [38]

The Hydrogen bomb is a thermonuclear bomb where a fission reaction is used to trigger a fusion reaction.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The Concept of Hydrogen Bomb or H-Bomb is primarily based on nuclear fusion where different isotopes of hydrogen diffuse to fuse their atomic nuclei into a bigger atom, releasing a significant and enormous amount of energy that can ruin a half of the world.

A hydrogen or thermonuclear bomb contains a firearm, but the reaction process has two stages. Uses primary fission energy to activate the next fusion reaction. The energy out by the fusion is nearly four times more than the energy out during fission, which gives more power to a hydrogen bomb.

What happens to parallel light rays that strike a concave lens?

torisob [31]

Answer:

They diverge on refraction

Explanation:

When parallel light rays strike a concave lens, they will diverge that is they spread out .

Concave lens is also known as diverging lens, which means that when parallel rays of light strike on it, the lens spreads out the light rays ( that is it diverges the rays of light) that are refracted through it.

At the middle of concave lens is thinner.

When light is passes through the lens they diverge it or spread out.

The concave lens causes light rays to bend away or diverge from its axis since the concave lens is a diverging lens.

[Assume g = 10m/s?] If a girl is running along a straight road with a uniform velocity 1.5 m/s, find her acceleration. (Ans: 0)

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Her acceleration is 0 m/s²

Explanation:

We note that the motion of the girl is on a straight road, therefore;

The vertical acceleration (e.g. due to gravity, <em>g)</em> on the horizontal motion = 0

The horizontal acceleration, a = (Change in velocity, Δv)/(Change in time, Δt)

For uniform velocity, the change in velocity, Δv = 0

Therefore, fore any change in time, Δt, we have;

a = Δv/Δt

Her acceleration, a = 0/Δt = 0

Her acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

What is the energy stored, in units of nanoJoules, on a 14.8 nF capacitor when the voltage applied across the capacitor is 7.2 V

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

383.6 nJ

Explanation:

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by the formula:

$E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2$

where

C is the capacitance

V is the voltage applied

In this problem, we have

C = 14.8 nF is the capacitance of the capacitor

V = 7.2 V is the voltage

Substituting into the equation, we find:

$E=\frac{1}{2}(14.8 nF)(7.2 V)^2=383.6 nJ$
