I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. If the volatility of X is higher than that of Y, then <span>Y’s molecules experience stronger London dispersion forces than X’s molecules. All molecules has london dispersion forces. Also, the stronger the bond, the harder it is to volatilize. Hope this answers the question.</span>

On a hot day, the deck of a small ship reaches a temperature of 48

AlekseyPX

The final temperature of the seawater-deck system is 990°C.

The increment in temperature adds up the thermal energy into the object. This energy is Heat energy.

The deck of a small ship reaches a temperature Ti= 48.17°C seawater on the deck to cool it down. During the cooling, heat Q =3,710,000 J are transferred to the seawater from the deck. Specific heat of seawater= 3,930 J/kg°C.

Suppose for 1 kg of sea water, the heat transferred from the system is given by

3,710,000 = 1 x 3,930 x (T - 48.17)

T = 990°C to the nearest tenth.

The final temperature of the seawater-deck system is 990°C.

Explain why nuclear fission and nuclear fusion release large amounts of energy

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because of the formula $E=mc^2$

Explanation:

In this problem we are describing two different processes:

Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei

Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus

In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.

According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:

$E=\Delta mc^2$

where:

E is the energy released in the reaction

$\Delta m$ is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass

$c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

From the formula, we see that the factor $c^2$ is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect $\Delta m$ is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.

A single circular loop of wire of radius 0.75 m carries a constant current of 3.0 A. The loop may be rotated about an axis that

NISA [10]

Answer:

B = 0.8 T

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of circular loop, r = 0.75 m

Current in the loop, I = 3 A

The loop may be rotated about an axis that passes through the center and lies in the plane of the loop.

When the orientation of the normal to the loop with respect to the direction of the magnetic field is 25°, the torque on the coil is 1.8 Nm.

We need to find the magnitude of the uniform magnetic field exerting this torque on the loop. Torque acting on the loop is given by :

$\tau=NIAB\sin\theta$

B is magnetic field

$B=\dfrac{\tau}{NIA\sin\theta}\\\\B=\dfrac{1.8}{1\times \pi \times (0.75)^2\times 3\times \sin(25)}\\\\B=0.8\ T$

So, the magnitude of the uniform magnetic field exerting this torque on the loop is 0.8 T.
