Physics
1 answer:
anzhelika [568]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Last option in the list of possible answers, with U235 and n (neutron) in the left (originators) of the reaction diagram.

Explanation:

Uranium 235 (which is a fissile isotope of uranium) plus slow neutrons is what produce the chain reaction that feeds nuclear reactors.

A person skateboarding is part of a closed system that has 1,450 j of
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The gravitational potential energy of the system will decreases from 1,250 J to 625 J. Option A is corect.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred from one form to another.

The total energy is the sum of all the energies present in the system. The potential energy in a system is due to its position in the system.

TE=KE+GPE

Case 1;

1450 = 200 J+GPE

GPE=1450 -200

GPE=1250 J

Case 2;

1450 = 825 J+GPE

GPE=1450 -825

GPE=625 J

The gravitational potential energy of the system will decreases from 1,250 J to 625 J.

Hence, option A is corect.

(A) If an atom of uranium-238( U ) undergoes alpha decay, what daughter isotope is produced? (B) If this radioisotope from (A) t
salantis [7]

Answer:

Th-234, Pa-234

Explanation:

In alpha decay, 2 protons and 2 neutrons are lost.  So U-238 would become Th-234.

In beta decay, one neutron is turned into a proton.  So Th-234 would become Pa-234.

At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to 1515
Talja [164]

Complete  Question

At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to 1/5.

Answer:

The  angle is  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The light emerging from second Polaroid is 1/5 the  unpolarized

Generally the intensity of light emerging from the first Polaroid is mathematically represented as

             I_1 = \frac{I_o}{ 2 }

Generally from the Malus law the intensity of light emerging from the second Polaroid  is mathematically represented

      I_2  =  I_1 cos^2 (\theta )

=>   cos^2 (\theta ) =  \frac{I_2}{I_1 }

=>   cos (\theta) =  \sqrt{ \frac{I_2}{I_1} }

From the question I_2  =  \frac{I_o}{5}

     cos (\theta) =  \sqrt{ \frac{ \frac{ I_o}{5} }{\frac{I_o}{2} } }

     cos (\theta) =  \sqrt{ \frac{2}{5} }

=>    \theta =   cos ^{-1} [\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}  ]

=>    \theta  =  50.77^o
