The sun, like all stars, releases energy through nuclear fusion. In this problem, you will find the total number of fusion react

ion events that occur inside the sun every second. You will be considering the proton-proton chain, in which four hydrogen nuclei are converted into a helium nucleus and two positrons. The net reaction for the proton-proton chain is
411H? 42He+2?+ .

To find the energy released by this reaction, you will need the following mass data:

mass of 11H=1.007825u

and

mass of 42He=4.002603u .

Using the masses of the neutral atoms in your calculation accounts for the energy released by the annihilation of the positrons with electrons, so you can work this problem without reference to the positrons or their rest mass.

a. What is the total energy Q released in a single fusion reaction event for the equation given in the problem introduction?

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

DetaM=4 x 1.02875 - 4.002603

DetaM= 0.028697u

Using E= mc²

= 0.028697 x 1.49x*10^-10

= 4.2x10^-12J

Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.
