The mass of methane will produce as much energy as a single gram of uranium-235 1,287 kilograms of methane. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is uranium?</h3>

Uranium, with the atomic number 92 and the symbol U in the periodic table, is a weakly radioactive element. One of the heavy metals that may be used as a concentrated energy source is uranium.

Given data;

⇒One mole of U-235 = 235 grams

=> 1 gram of U-235 = 1/235 moles

⇒1 mole of U-235 = 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

The no of atoms is;

=> 1/235 moles of U-235

⇒N = 6.023 x 10²³/235 atoms

⇒N=25.6 x 10²⁰ atoms

If one atom of U-235 gives is 189 x 10⁶ eV energy,25.6 x 10²⁰ atoms of U-235 gives;

=> 25.6 x 10²⁰ atoms of U-235 gives;

E = 25.6 x 10²⁰ x 189 x 10⁶

E= 4.8 x 10²⁹ eV energy

One methane molecule produces;

E = 10 eV of energy

=> To produce 4.8 x 10²⁹ eV energy, no. of molecules required;

= 4.8 x 10²⁸

6.032 x 10²³ molecules of methane = 16 gms

=> 4.8 x 10²⁸ molecules of methane = 16 x 4.8 x 10²⁸/ 6.032 x 10²³ gms

m= 12.75 x 10⁵ gms

m= 1275 kilograms of methane

m≅ 1287 kilograms of methane

1 gram of U-235 has the same amount of energy as 1287 kilograms of methane.

Hence option D is correct,

I need help in this pls i really need a answer

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

In terms of distance, average speed is 20 km/h

In terms of displacement, average speed is 0 km/h.

Explanation:

Total distance:

$= (40.0 - 10.0) + (20.0 - 10.0) + (40.0 - 20.0) \\ = 30.0 + 10.0 + 20.0 \\ = 60.0 \: km$

Total time is 3.0 hours

but:

$average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\$

In terms of distance.

substitute:

$average \: speed = \frac{60.0}{3.0} \\ \\ = 20 \: {kmh}^{ - 1}$

$displacement = ( - 30.0) + 10 .0+ 20.0 \\ = 0$

In terms of displacement:

$speed = \frac{0}{3} \\ \\ = 0 \: {kmh}^{ - 1}$

While on a playground, you and your niece take turns sliding down a frictionless slide. Your mass is 75 kg while your little nie

Olenka [21]

Answer:

c.

Explanation:

In absence of friction, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
This means that the change in gravitational potential energy (in magnitude) must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

$\Delta K = \Delta U \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = m*g*h$

As it can be seen, the mass m is on the both sides of the equation, which means that it can be simplified.
We can solve this equation for v (speed at the bottom) as follows:

$v = \sqrt{2*g*h}$

As it can be seen, the mass has no part in the equation, so, due both are starting from the same height, both people have the same speed at the bottom.
The option c is the right one.
