Fission and fusion reactions both involve making changes to an atom's _____.

1 answer:

spayn [35]3 years ago

Option (A) is correct. Fission and fusion reactions both involve making changes to an atom's nuclei.

Nuclear fission is a process in which a bigger nucleus breaks into two or more smaller nuclei with the liberation of large amount of energy.

Nuclear fusion is a process in which two smaller nuclei fuse together to form a bigger nucleus. A tremendous amount of energy is released during fusion.

Thus both fission and fusion involve the changes in the nuclei of atoms. Rest of the atom like the electronic configuration etc remains same.

A 3.50-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 × 10-6 meter2 is at 20° Celsius. If the wire has a resistance of

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

$5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by $\rho=\frac {AR}{L}$ where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and $\rho$ is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

$\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

What kind of energy change occurs when a battery is operating a remote control toy?

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C.

When the battery is operating a remote control toy the energy is converted from potential energy to the kinetic energy.

A battery stores electrical potential from the chemical reaction.

When the circuit is connected to the potential energy of the battery helps in the movement of the toy.

The energy produced by the movement of the control toy is kinetic energy.

Hence, we can say that Potential energy is changed to kinetic energy

The brachialis attaches to the forearm .035 m from the elbow at an angle of 32 deg. If the brachialis produces 750 N of force, w

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$XY=636N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance $d=0.35m$

Angle $\theta=32\textdegree$

Force $F=750N$

Generally the equation for magnitude of the stabilizing component of the brachialis force is mathematically given by

$XY=Fcos\theta$

$XY=750cos 32\textdegree$

$XY=636N$

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one sid

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Net pull = 110 N to the left

Explanation:

Group the different pulls according to the direction (right or left)

2 pull 196 N each to the right

4 pull 98 N each to the left

5 pull 62 N each to the left

3 pull 150 N each to the right

1 pull 250 N to the left

Since positive direction is to the right, the pulls to the left will have a minus (-)

$Net Force= 2(196)+4(-98)+5(-62)+3(150)+1(-250) \\Net Force = -110$

The resulting force is negative, meaning the direction is to the left
