Answer: 300 m

Explanation:

A body possesses gravitational potential energy due to virtue of its height above the surface. It is measured in Joules. it is given by:

G.P.E = m g h

where, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Given: m = 85 kg

G.P.E = 250,000 J

g = 9.8 m/s²

⇒ h = (G.P.E}/ mg

⇒h = (250,000) / ( 85 × 9.8) = 300 m.

The climber climbed 300 m high.

What If? Fluoride ions (which have the same charge as an electron) are initially moving with the same speed as the electrons fro
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

E₁ / E₂ = M / m

Explanation:

Let the electric field be E₁ and E₂ for ions and electrons respectively .

Force on ions = E₁ e where e is charge on ions .

Acceleration on ions a = E₁ e / M . Let initial velocity of both be u . Final velocity v = 0

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2 x E₁ e d  / M  

u² = 2 x E₁ e d  / M

Similarly for electrons

u² = 2 x E₂ e d  / m

Hence

2 x E₁ e d  / M =  2 x E₂ e d  / m

E₁ / E₂ = M / m

At a country music festival, a band is playing at the end of a crowded
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

t=4.86s

Explanation:

To find the wavelength you use the following formula:

v=\lambda f

v: speed of sound = 343m/s

f: frequency = 400Hz

λ: wavelength of the sound

By doing λ the subject of the formula and replacing the values of f and v you obtain:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343m/s}{400Hz}=0.85m

Now, to calculate the time that sound takes to reach the last row you use:

t=\frac{d}{v}

t: time

d: distance to the last row = 1947m

t=\frac{1947m}{400Hz}=4.86s

hence, the time is 4.86s

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.
