Physics
2 answers:
denis23 [38]3 years ago
8 0

The weight of an object is the force with which it is attracted to earth. The gravity of an object or body of an object is high on earth than at the atmosphere. It has an average of gravitational constant equal to 9.8066 or 9.8 meters per second. In truth, the acceleration of the object depend upon its location, the latitude and altitude, on earth.

Answer : The correct option is d.

Explanation :

We know that the mass is the measure of the inertia of an object. it is equal to the amount of matter contained inside a body. It always remains the same.

The weight is equal to the force with which a body is attracted to earth.

Mathematically, weight of a body is given by :

W = m g

Where,

m is the mass of an object

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The weight of an object varies with respect to location. Its SI unit is newton.

Hence, the correct option is (d) ''is the force with which it is attracted to earth''

Lawson's criterion states that the product of ion density and confinement time must exceed a certain number before a break-even
LekaFEV [45]

According to Lawson's criterion, the outcome is determined by the product of ion density and confinement time because the temperature must be maintained for a sufficient confinement time and with a sufficient ion thickness to obtain a net gain of power from a fusion reaction.

<h3>What are Lawson's criterion?</h3>
  • The overall conditions that must be met in order to produce more energy than is required for plasma heating are usually expressed in terms of the product of ion density and confinement time, a condition known as Lawson's criterion.
  • In nuclear fusion devices, confinement time is defined as the amount of time the plasma is kept at a temperature above the critical ignition temperature.
  • Even at temperatures high enough to overcome the coulomb barrier to nuclear fusion, a critical density of ions must be maintained in order to achieve a net yield of energy from the reaction.
  • Because the density required for a net energy yield is correlated with the confinement time for hot plasma, the minimum condition for a productive fusion reaction is typically stated in terms of the product of ion density and confinement time, which is known as Lawson's criterion.

How can electric energy be converted to heat energy?
Goshia [24]
To do that, you must pass electric current through a substance
that electrons have to spend energy to pass through. 
The substance will be one that gets warm and dissipates heat
when electric current flows through it.
We'll say that the substance has "resistance", which we can measure.
The amount of heat that appears when current flows through it
will be (current²)·(resistance).

A few examples of things used for that purpose:

-- resistors
-- burners on electric stoves
-- coils of resistor-wire in a toaster
-- aquarium heater
-- electric clothes iron
-- electric coffee pot
-- blow-dryer
-- electric hair-curling iron
-- skinny tungsten wire in a light-bulb .
