The correct answer is

A. Chain reaction

This is how the chain reaction works in a process of nuclear fission:

1) Slow-moving neutrons reach heavy, unstable, radioactive nuclei (such as Uranium-235)

2) The neutrons interact with the nuclei of Uranium, which break apart producing smaller nuclei and additional neutrons

3) The neutrons produced in the reaction are slowed down by a moderator (e.g. water) and they interact with new nuclei of Uranium, causing new fission reactions)

4) The new neutrons interact with new nuclei of Uranium, and so on...

A horizontal uniform meter stick supported at the 50-cm mark has a mass of 0.50 kg hanging from it at the 20-cm mark and a 0.30
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

70 cm

Explanation:

0.5 kg at 20 cm

0.3 kg at 60 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

0.5(50-20)=0.3(60-50)+0.6x\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{0.5(50-20)-0.3(60-50)}{0.6}\\\Rightarrow x=20\ cm

The position of the third mass of 0.6 kg is at 20+50 = 70 cm
