<h2>Answer: The separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom  </h2><h2> </h2>

The n<u>uclear fission</u> consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the <u>bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable. </u>

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.

It should be noted that in the process, the emitted neutrons can interact with new fissionable nuclei that will emit new neutrons and so on. Effect better known as chain reaction.

What causes clouds to form on the upwind side of mountain ranges
Makovka662 [10]
I believe it’s because of the air from the lower part of the mountain adjusting to the climate at the top. Mountains cause air to rise, and when that air rises it cools down creating the clouds.

Hope I helped!

A meter stick is found to balance at the 49.7-cm mark when placed on a fulcrum. When a 65.5-gram mass is attached at the 21.0-cm
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

113.53 g

Explanation:

Please see attached photo for explanation.

In the attached photo, M is the mass of the meter stick.

The value of M can be obtained as shown below:

Clockwise moment = M × 10.5

Anticlockwise moment = 65.5 × 18.2

Anticlockwise moment = Clockwise moment

65.5 × 18.2 = M × 10.5

1192.1 = M × 10.5

Divide both side by 10.5

M = 1192.1 / 10.5

M = 113.53 g

Thus, the mass of the meter stick is 113.53 g

A cannon is fired horizontally from atop a 40.0 m tower. The cannonball travels 175 m horizontally before it strikes the ground.
Anastasy [175]

The vertical movement of the projectile is described by:

y = H - gt² / 2

When the cannonball is on the ground, y= 0 so:

0 = H - gt² /2

Solving for t:

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2H}{g}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{2(40\;m)}{9.8\;m/s^2}} = 2.8\;s

The horizontally movement of the projectile is described by:

x = v₀t

Solving for v₀:

v₀ = x/t

v₀ = 175 m / 2.8 s

v₀ = 61.5 m/s
