Answer:

Option B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes from sea water

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion can not be carried out by using any type of water as water is composed of stable water molecules (H_{2}O which is quite difficult to be decayed by any simple method.

Moreover, fusion reactions demands the combination of nuclei of lighter elements for which it makes use of the heavy isotopes of Hydrogen that are Deuterium and Tritium as fuel to carry out the nuclear fusion.

A major artery with a cross sectional area of 1.00cm^2 branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross sectional a
dybincka [34]

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2

now we know that

A_1 = 1 cm^2

A_2 = 0.4 cm^2

now from above equation

1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

Each of the following statements is arguably true of thermometers. Which of them is most helpful to keep in mind if you are cond
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The temperature reported by a thermometer is never precisely the same as its surroundings

Explanation:

In this experiment to determine the specific heat of a material the theory explains that when a heat interchange takes place between two bodies that were having different temperatures at the start, the quantity of heat the warmer body looses is equal to that gained by the cooler body to reach the equilibrium temperature. <u>This is true only if no heat is lost or gained from the surrounding.</u> If heat is gained or lost from the surrounding environment, the temperature readings by the thermometer will be incorrect. The experimenter should therefore keep in mind that for accurate results, the temperature recorded by the thermometer is similar to that of the surrounding at the start of the experiment and if it differs then note that there is either heat gained or lost to the environment.

A block of mass 4 kg slides down an inclined plane inclined at an angle of 30o with the horizontal. Find the acceleration of the
Nataly [62]

Answer:

a) a = 4.9 m/s²

b) a = 1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

no friction

F = ma

gsinθ = ma

a = gsinθ

a = 9.8sin30

a = 4.9 m/s²

friction

gsinθ - μmgcosθ = ma

a = g(sinθ - μcosθ)

a = 9.8(sin30 - 0.4cos30)

a = 1.5051...

In order to slide a heavy desk across the floor at constant speed in a straight line, you have to exert a horizontal force of 80
notka56 [123]
The hint is "constant speed". 
If there is a net force on an object, what occurs to that object? F net = m*a.... It accelerates! 
So, if the desk is going at a CONSTANT speed, what does that tell you about the acceleration? There is a change in speed. 
Fnet = m*a Since a = 0 Fnet = 0 
Fnet = sum of the force... reflect the direction of F as the positive direction. Sum of the forces in the direction of F = 0 0 = F - friction F = friction 
So, if F = 800 N, then friction = 800 N in the opposite direction.

What contributes did Galileo make to the model of the Solar System?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Galileo first discovered that the Moon had mountains just like Earth. He also discovered 4 of Jupiter's moons. Using his telescope, Galileo made many observations of our Solar System. He came to believe that the idea that the Sun and other planets orbited around the Earth was not correct.
