Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the

rarer 235u that is needed for nuclear reactors. the isotopes are separated by forming uranium hexafluoride uf6, which is a gas, then allowing it to diffuse through a series of porous membranes. 235uf6 has a slightly larger rms speed than 238uf6 and diffuses slightly faster. many repetitions of this procedure gradually separate the two isotopes. what is the ratio of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6?

The ration of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6 is 1.004.

The molecular mass of 235uf6 is 349, while that of 238uf6 is 352.

The rms speed is calculated as

v=√(3RT/m)

Thus the ratio rms speed of 235uf6 to 238uf6 is calculated as

r=√(352/349)=1.004

qwelly [4]

Answer:

A car moves up a hill at a constant velocity

Explanation:

Since the velocity is constant, the speed is also constant and so is the kinetic energy. However, total mechanical energy is sum of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy, and the car is moving up the hill so its potential energy rises.

Thus, in the circumstances described the mechanical energy cannot be conserved.

The correct answer is A car moving up the hill with constant velocity.

ollegr [7]
There is a horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction in the transverse plane that is imaginary bisector that divides the body into two halves upper or top and lower or bottom halves.
<span>Horizontal abduction involves the movement of the arm or thigh from a medial or anterior position to a lateral position and in horizontal adduction, the movement is reverse that is from lateral position to anterior position.</span>
