In Iran, Uranium is being enriched using centrifuges. In the 1940’s and 1950’s USA Uranium was enriched using mass spectrometry.

Why did the Iranians choose not to use mass spectrometry?

<span>This is due to the low cost, in energy, of enrichment per unit <span> of uranium. It's cheaper to use centrifugal isotope separation than the use of mass spectrometry. However, mass spectrometry produces highly enriched uranium compared to centrifugal. Additionally, mass spectrometry requires a less mass of natural uranium (NU) to produce the desired enriched uranium. </span></span>

According to Doppler Effect, an observer at rest will perceive a shift in the wavelength or frequency of the radiation emitted by a source in movement.This shift is given by the formula:
\frac{ \lambda - \lambda_{0} }{ \lambda_{0} } = \frac{-v}{c}

where:
\lambda = observed wavelength
\lambda_{0} = wavelength at rest
v = speed of source (positive if towards the observer, negative if away from the observer)
c = speed of light

Therefore, we can solve for the observed wavelength:
\lambda = \lambda_{0} (\frac{-v}{c}) + \lambda_{0} \\ \lambda = \lambda_{0} (1 - \frac{v}{c})

Substituting the given data:
\lambda = 656.46 (1 - \frac{300}{299792})
= 655.80 nm

Hence, the observed wavelength of the line would be 655.80 nm. Note that this value is smaller than the one at rest, which means that we have a blue-shift, as expected for an approaching source.

A snail con move at 3cm/s if it’s ke is 300joules what it it’s mass?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Explanation:

V = 3 cm/s = 0.03 m/s. BY THE FORmULA OF K.E. K.E = 1/2 mV^2. 300 =1/2 m (0.03)^2. m = 300 x 2/0.0009.

A basketball star exerts a force of 3225 n (average value) upon the gym floor in order to accelerate his 76.5-kg body upward. de
ryzh [129]
F = m . g  = 76.5 x 9..8 = 749.7
Net Force = 3225 - 749.7 = 2475.3

F = m.a
2475.3 = 76.5 a

a  = 32.35



V = at + v1
V = at + 0
V = 32.35 x 0.15
V = 4.8525

Hope this helps

Can something have energy without having momentum? explain. can something have momentum without having energy? defend your answe
marta [7]
Momentum  is a product mass and velocity. If a certain object posses a kinetic energy, then it should have a momentum since it is moving which has a velocity. However, if the object is at rest and only has potential energy, then it would not have momentum. So, for the first question the answer would be yes, an object can have energy without having any momentum. For the second question, every object whether it is moving or at rest, possess some energy, potential for an object at rest and kinetic for an object that is moving. Thus, the answer would be no, an object having momentum would always have energy.
