Nuclear fission formula by the looks of it. Possibly how Professor Lisa Meitner realised that she had split the atomic nucleus. The Xenon and the Strontium (Xe and Sr) would presumably show up in a radio chemical assaying test at her university. 
A few years later, Professor J Robert Oppenheimer watched a nuclear test somewhere near Los Alamos, US and lamented "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds". Shortly thereafter, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were razed to the ground and annihilated by nuclear bombs. Professor Meitner, probably inadvertently, had got the keys to the doors to "nuclear hell", and JRO ended up turning them. Something like that maybe, and a very harrowing and tumultuous period in human history.
Note in the fission equation, that out come two neutrons. They go off and produce a similar fission in another U235 nucleus into a chain reaction which, i not moderated by, say, Boron, can end up as a "mushroom cloud".

The heating element of a coffeemaker operates at 120 V and carries a current of 4.50 A. Assuming the water absorbs all of the en
Bond [772]

Answer:

It will take 313.376 sec to raise temperature to boiling point

Explanation:

We have given that potential difference V = 120 Volt

Current i = 4.50 A

So resistance R=\frac{V}{i}=\frac{120}{4.50}=26.666ohm

Heat flow in resistor will be equal to Q=i^2Rt

It is given that this heat is used for boiling the water

Mass of the water = 0.525 kg = 525 gram

Specific heat of water 4.186 J/gram/°C

Initial temperature is given as 23°C

Boiling temperature of water = 100°C

So change in temperature = 100-23 = 77°C

Heat required to raise the temperature of water Q=mc\Lambda T

So 4.50^2\times 26.666\times t=525\times 4.186\times 77

t = 313.376 sec

So it will take 313.376 sec to raise temperature to boiling point

The pressure and volume of a fixed mass of gas _ are related. if one decreases, the other ___ ___ this relationship is known as
mihalych1998 [28]
1) Inversely
2) increases
3) Boyle's
4) mass
5) Kelvin
6) Charles's
7) Gay-Lussac's
8) directly
9) combined
10) the amount

<span>The pressure and volume of a fixed mass of gas are inversely related. If one decreases, the other increases. This relationship is known as Boyle's law. The volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its kelvin temperature. This relationship is known as Charles's law. Gay-Lussac's law states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the kelvin temperature if the volume remains constant. These three separate gas laws can be written as a single expression called the combined gas law. It can be used in situations in which only the amount of gas is constant. </span>

A standard 1 kilogram weight is a cylinder 41.5 mm in height and 44.0 mm in diameter. what is the density of the material?
Korvikt [17]

Answer;

=15855.40 kg/m^3

Explanation;

Volume (V) of the cylinder = pi x r^2 x h  

V = 3.14 x (44/2 x 10^-3)^2 x 41.5 x 10^-3  

V = 6.307 x 10^-5 m^3  

By density = m/V  

mass = 1 kg

density = 1/(6.307 x 10^-5) = 15855.40 kg/m^3
