Which produces more energy:

Physics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a) uranium

b) deuterium

Explanation:

For the first question, you can actually know this by simple logic. The nucleus of Ucranium, has more energy than a pair of deuterium. Ucranium has a mass number and atomic mass higher than deuterium, therefore, when you do a fission with ucranium in it's nucleous, this would be in energy higher than the deuterium.

However, in terms of mass only, the fissioning of 1 gram of Deuterium will produce more energy than 1 gram of uranium, basically because deuterium is lighter and has a lower molecular weight than ucranium. This means that because of this lower molecular weight, in 1 gram of deuterium will contain more number of atoms than in 1 g of uranium. The interaction with these atoms, will produce more energy than the energy produced by uranium.

What is it called when something doesn’t flow easy
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

That something is called having a high viscosity.

Explanation:

The measure expressing a "resistance to flow" is called viscosity. Viscosity relates to  internal friction forces in a fluid causing it to flow with more or less difficulty. Highly viscous stuff is perceived "thick" or "sticky."

Starting at 48th Street, Dylan rides his bike due east on Meridian Road with the wind at his back. He rides for 20 min at 15 mph
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

55 min

Explanation:

The missing question is: how long does the trip take?

First of all, we need to find the initial distance covered by Dylan. In the first part, he rides for

t_1 = 20 min = \frac{1}{3}h

at a speed of

v = 15 mph

therefore, the distance he covered is

d = v t_1 = (15)(\frac{1}{3})=5 mi

Then Dylan stopped for a time of

t_2 = 5 min = \frac{5}{60}=\frac{1}{12}h

Finally, on the way back, Dylan covered again this distance but travelling at a new speed of

v = 10 mph

So, the time he took is

t_3 = \frac{d}{v}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}h = 30 min

So, the total time of the trip was

t=t_1 + t_2 + t_3 = 20 min + 5 min + 30 min = 55 min

Solve for x. 4(x+1)≤4x+3
alexdok [17]
4x + 4 < 4x + 3 (expand it)
4 < 3 (cancel 4x on both sides)
Since 4 < 3 is not true there is no solution.

Answer: NO SOLUTION.

A particle moves through an xyz coordinate system while a force acts on it. When the particle has the position vector r with arr
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, below is the complete question "A particle moves through an xyz coordinate system while a force acts on it. When the particle has the position vector r with arrow = (2.00 m)i hat − (3.00 m)j + (2.00 m)k, the force is F with arrow = Fxi hat + (7.00 N)j − (5.00 N)k and the corresponding torque about the origin is vector tau = (4 N · m)i hat + (10 N · m)j + (11N · m)k.

Determine Fx."

F_{x}=-1N.m

Explanation:

We asked to determine the "x" component of the applied force. To do this, we need to write out the expression for the torque in the in vector representation.

torque=cross product of force and position . mathematically this can be express as

T=r*F

Where

F=F_{x}i+(7N)j-(5N)k  and the position vector

r=(2m)i-(3m)j+(2m)k

using the determinant method to expand the cross product in order to determine the torque we have

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\2&-3&2\\ F_{x} &7&-5\end{array}\right]\\\\

by expanding we arrive at

T=(18-14)i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\T=4i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\\\

since we have determine the vector value of the toque, we now compare with the torque value given in the question

(4Nm)i+(10Nm)j+(11Nm)k=4i-(-12-2F_{x})j+(12+3F_{x})k\\

if we directly compare the j coordinate we have

10=-(-12-2F_{x})\\10=12+2F_{x}\\ 10-12=2F_{x}\\ F_{x}=-1N.m
