Answer:

Chain reaction is possible by neutron

Explanation:

Nuclear reaction is mainly two types,

⇒ Nuclear Fission : heavy atom split into two light atom.

Ex. Uranium, thorium

⇒ Nuclear fusion : lighter atom combine together

Ex. Hydrogen to helium

In fusion reaction the large amount of energy is produced as compare to fission reaction.

Sun gets brighter by fusion reaction.

In case of uranium fission reaction is possible by colliding neutron.

A solid cylinder is released from the top of an inclined plane of height 0.81 m. From what height, in meters, on the incline sho
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

same 0.81m

Explanation:

in this problem if we assume there no resistance of any sort. and we apply the energy conservation

change in Potential energy = change in kinetic energy

mgh = 0.5mv^2

gh = 0.5v^2

the above relation suggests that the speed at the bottom is only depending on the height it is released from not on the shape, mass or radius.

so at the bottom

put h = 0.81m

9.81 * 0.81 * 2 = v^2

v=3.99 m/s

both CYLINDER and SPHERE will have same velocity at the bottom if released from the same height irrespective of shape and size

22. State any three features of the electroscope.​
MatroZZZ [7]
-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.

A perfectly elastic collision occurs between a 15.0-kg mass traveling at 3.50 m/s and a 9.00-kg mass traveling at 2.35 m/s. if t
BaLLatris [955]
Momentum is conserved in a collision. Momentum is mass*velocity, so you can find your answer by calculating initial and final momentums and setting them equal to each other.

15kg * 3.50 m/s + 9kg * 2.35 m/s = 73.65 kg m/s

73.65 = 9 * 2.8 + 15x

solve for x
x= 3.23

The final velocity is 3.23 m/s
