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.

Consider the following geometric solids.
Bad White [126]

Before answering this question, first we have to understand the effect of ratio of surface area to volume on the rate of diffusion.

The rate of diffusion for a body having larger surface area as compared to the ratio of surface area to volume will be more than a body having less surface area. Mathematically it can written as-

                           V∝ R            [ where v is the rate of diffusion and r is the ratio of surface area to volume]

As per the question,the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere is given 0.08m^{-1}

The surface area to volume ratio for right circular cylinder is given 2.1m^{-1}

Hence, it is obvious that the ratio is more for right circular cylinder.As the rate diffusion is directly proportional to the surface area to volume ratio,hence rate of diffusion will be more for right circular cylinder.

Hence the correct option is B. The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.

Suppose a car of mass m is moving at a constant speed v of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The angle of banked curve that makes the reliance on friction unnecessary is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))

Explanation:

In order the car to stay on the curve without friction, the net force in the direction of radius should be equal or smaller than the centripetal force. Otherwise the car could slide off the curve.

The only force in the direction of radius is the sine component of the weight of the car

w_r = mg\sin(\theta)

The cosine component is equivalent to the normal force, which we will not be using since friction is unnecessary.

Newton’s Second Law states that

F_{net} = ma = mg\sin(\theta)\\\sin(\theta) = a/g

Also, the car is making a circular motion:

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

Combining the equations:

\sin(\theta) = \frac{a}{g} = \frac{v^2/R}{g} = \frac{v^2}{gR}

Finally the angle is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))
