When nuclear fission occurs some mass is lost where does that mass go
horrorfan [7]
The loss of matter is called the mass defect. The missing matter is converted into energy. You can actually calculate the amount of energy produced during a nuclear reaction with  fairly simple equation developed by Albert Einstein; E = mc^2. In this equation, E is the amount of energy produced, m is the missing mass, or the mass defect, and c is the speed of light, which is a rather large number. The speed of light is squared, making that part of the equation a very large number that, even when multiplied by a small amount of mass, yields a large amount of energy.

What are 2 ways electromagnets are used
lisabon 2012 [21]
Electromagnets are used for various purposes but I fathom in this instance, the questioner is asking about how electromagnetics can be used to attraction or repulsion.
Example, electromagnets are used for attraction in cranes which attach them to containers in order to lift them.
Meanwhile, Maglev trains use electromagnets repulsive properties.

g a small smetal sphere, carrying a net charge is held stationarry. what is the speed are 0.4 m apart
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The speed of q₂ is 4\sqrt{10}\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 0.4 m apart

Suppose, A small metal sphere, carrying a net charge q₁ = −2μC, is held in a stationary position by insulating supports. A second small metal sphere, with a net charge of q₂ = −8μC and mass 1.50g, is projected toward q₁. When the two spheres are 0.800m apart, q₂ is moving toward q₁ with speed 20m/s.

We need to calculate the speed of q₂

Using conservation of energy

E_{i}=E_{f}

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2+\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r_{i}}=\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r_{f}}+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2

\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_{i}^2-v_{f}^2)=kq_{1}q_{2}(\dfrac{1}{r_{f}}-\dfrac{1}{r_{i}})

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.5\times10^{-3}(20^2-v_{f}^2)=9\times10^{9}\times-2\times10^{-6}\times-8\times10^{-6}(\dfrac{1}{(0.4)}-\dfrac{1}{(0.8)})

0.00075(400-v_{f}^2)=0.18&#10;

400-v_{f}^2=\dfrac{0.18}{0.00075}

-v_{f}^2=240-400

v_{f}^2=160

v_{f}=4\sqrt{10}\ m/s

Hence, The speed of q₂ is 4\sqrt{10}\ m/s

Five identical quintuplets leave earth when they reach the age of 21, in the year 2121. Each quintuplet goes on a spaceship jour
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a problem based on time dilation , a theory given by Albert Einstein .

The formula of time dilation is as follows .

t₁ = \frac{t}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }

t is time measured on the earth and t₁ is time measured by man on ship .

A ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.09 x 20

t₁= 21.82 years

B ) Given t = 5 years , t₁ = ? v = .2c

\frac{5}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.04c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.02 x 5

t₁= 5.1 years

C ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.67 x 10

t₁= 16.7  years

D ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.09 x 10

t₁= 10.9  years

E ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.67 x 20

t₁= 33.4   years

A constant net torque is applied to a rotating object. Which of the following best describes the object's motion? A constant net
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The object will rotate with constant angular acceleration

Explanation:

According to the Newton's Second Law for Whenever there is more than one torque acting on a rigid body that posses fixed axis, the moment of inertia as well as the angular acceleration is equals or proportional to the summation of the torques. It gives details on the relationship between rotational kinematics and torque as well as moment of inertia. This can be represented by the below equation.

∑iτi=Iα.

.Therefore when constant net torque is applied to object that is rotating, the object will rotate with constant angular acceleration
