How do fission nuclear reactions differ from fusion nuclear reactions?

A. Fission reactions involve the conversion of matter into energy, but fusion reactions do not. 

B. Fusion reactions involve the conversion of matter into energy, but fission reactions do not. 

C. Fission reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fusion reactions are not. 

D. Fusion reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fission reactions are not.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but their applications differs.

 Fission is the splitting of a large (heavy, unstable) nucleus into smaller ones, and fusion is the process where nuclei of small atoms are combine together to form the nuclei of larger atoms releasing vast amounts of energy.

The correct answer is c. Fission reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fusion reactions are not.

The physics of fusion is the process that makes the sun shine, and that makes the hydrogen bomb explode.

Calculate a pendulum's frequency of oscillation (in Hz) if the pendulum completes one cycle in 0.5 s.
Marina86 [1]
Time taken to complete one oscillation for a pendulum is Time Period, T = 0.5 s 
Frequency of the pendulum oscillation = 1 / Time Period => f = 1 / T = 1 / 0.5  
Frequency f = 2 Hz

Which type of surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy?
Len [333]
<span>light colored and smooth surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy.Light, shiny surfaces are the best reflectors of radiation and they will allow the waves to reflect and bounce off rather than absorb. we can consider mirror as the example ,it will only reflect the light energy falling on them and it will not absorb. The darker coloured and rough surfaced substances will definitely absorb some amount of light falling on it. so light coloured smooth or shiny surfaced material would be the best reflector for electromagnetic energy.</span>

Two stars have the same radius but have very different temperatures. the red star has a surface temperature of 3,000 k and the b
dangina [55]
I would say that insofar as the two stars temperatures are presumably closely related to their luminosity, that the blue star at 156,100 k compared to 3000k for the red star then the blue star has a luminosity of 52 times that of the red star.
