The correct statement about nuclear fusion is the last one: "it produces nearly all the elements that are heavier than helium". Nuclear fusion is the process of combination of two smaller atoms into a larger one. It requires a high activation energy, which is reached in the stars. Elements from He to Iron were formed in the Sun, but larger elements require a higher energy and are formed inside supernovas.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

the spring constant k = $5.409*10^4 \ N/m$

the value for the damping constant $\\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s$

Explanation:

From Hooke's Law

$F = kx\\\\k =\frac{F}{x}\\\\where \ F = mg\\\\k = \frac{mg}{x}\\\\given \ that:\\\\mass \ of \ each \ wheel = 425 \ kg\\\\x = 7.7cm = 0.077 m\\\\g = 9.8 \ m/s^2\\\\Then;\\\\k = \frac{425 \ kg * 9.8 \ m/s^2}{0.077 \ m}\\\\k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m$

Thus; the spring constant k = $5.409*10^4 \ N/m$

The amplitude is decreasing 37% during one period of the motion

$e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= \frac{37}{100}\\\\e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= 0.37\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = In(0.37)\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = -0.9943\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{T}\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}}\\\\b = \frac{m(0.9943) \ ( \omega) )}{ \pi}$

$b = \frac{m(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m})}}{\pi}\\\\b = \frac{425*(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{5.409*10^4}{425}) } }{3.14}\\\\b = 1518.24 \ kg/s\\\\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s$

Therefore; the value for the damping constant $\\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s$

A comet is traveling in outer space with a velocity of 2000 m s. How long will it take to travel 300.000 meters?

nevsk [136]

Answer:

.15s

Explanation:

Follow the units here. If you divide 300.000m by 2000m/s then you'll end up with the meters reduced and just the seconds. So that's what you do to get the time:

(300.000m)/(2000m/s ) =

(300.000/2000)(m•s/m) =

0.15s
