Answer:

a) Protons and neutrons are held together inside the nucleus

Explanation:

There are four forces which are responsible for all the observations in the nature. These forces are called fundamental forces of nature and listed below:

i) Gravity  

ii) Electromagnetism

iii) Weak nuclear force  

iv) Strong nuclear force

Among these four, strong nuclear force is strongest one. It has also been observed that when we split nucleus, heat  and energy released are larger than any other force. Hence, option (a) will be correct.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The force of attraction existent between the proton and neutron in the nucleus of an atom is extremely large. When the nucleus splits there is a large release of heat and energy larger than the force present in any of the other options listed.

The pressure drop needed to force water through a horizontal 1-in diameter pipe if 0.60 psi for every 12-ft length of pipe. Dete
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The shear stress at a distance 0.3-in away from the pipe wall is 0.06012lb/ft²

The shear stress at a distance 0.5-in away from the pipe wall is 0

Explanation:

Given;

pressure drop per unit length of pipe = 0.6 psi/ft

length of the pipe = 12 feet

diameter of the pipe = 1 -in

Pressure drop per unit length in a circular pipe is given as;

\frac{\delta P}{L} = \frac{2 \tau}{r} \\\\

make shear stress (τ) the subject of the formula

\frac{\delta P}{L} = \frac{2 \tau}{r} \\\\\tau = \frac{\delta P *r}{2L}

Where;

τ is the shear stress on the pipe wall.

ΔP is the pressure drop

L is the length of the pipe

r is the distance from the pipe wall

Part (a) shear stress at a distance of  0.3-in away from the pipe wall

Radius of the pipe = 0.5 -in

r = 0.5 - 0.3 = 0.2-in = 0.0167 ft

ΔP = 0.6 psi/ft

ΔP, in lb/ft² = 0.6 x 144 = 86.4 lb/ft²

\tau = \frac{\delta P *r}{2L}  = \frac{86.4 *0.0167}{2*12} =0.06012 \ lb/ft^2

Part (b) shear stress at a distance of  0.5-in away from the pipe wall

r = 0.5 - 0.5 = 0

\tau = \frac{\delta P *r}{2L}  = \frac{86.4 *0}{2*12} =0

After a nucleus undergoes radioactive decay, its new mass number is:
Ivanshal [37]
Radioactive "decay" means particles and stuff shoot OUT of a nucleus.
After that happens, there's less stuff in the nucleus than there was before.
So the new mass number is always less than the original mass number.

A descending elevator of mass 1,000 kg is uniformly decelerated to rest over a distance of 8 m by a cable in which the tension i
Stolb23 [73]

The speed  V_{i} of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

We are given that-

the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;

the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;

the tension is T = 11000 N;

let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fy = ma

W - T = ma

(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a

9800 - 11000 = 1000

a = - 1.2 m/s²

Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.

V_{f} ² = V_{i}² + 2ay

V_{i} = √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )

V_{i} = √19.2 m²/s²

V_{i} = 4.38 m/s   ≈ 4 m/s

Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.
