<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Nuclear fusion

<em><u>Nuclear fusion</u></em> reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Nuclear fusion is a type of nuclear reaction</u></em> in which two or more nuclei of atoms join to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.
  • <em><u>Nuclear fusion takes place in the sun where protons or hydrogen nuclei collide in a nuclear fusion reaction at very high temperatures to form Helium.</u></em> This nuclear fusion results in the conversion of 4 hydrogen atoms into helium atom.

An athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a velocity of 8.5 m/s upward. what maximum height does she
Mumz [18]
<span>Her center of mass will rise 3.7 meters. First, let's calculate how long it takes to reach the peak. Just divide by the local gravitational acceleration, so 8.5 m / 9.8 m/s^2 = 0.867346939 s And the distance a object under constant acceleration travels is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substituting known values, gives d = 0.5 9.8 m/s^2 (0.867346939 s)^2 d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 0.752290712 s^2 d = 3.68622449 m Rounded to 2 significant figures gives 3.7 meters. Note, that 3.7 meters is how much higher her center of mass will rise after leaving the trampoline. It does not specify how far above the trampoline the lowest part of her body will reach. For instance, she could be in an upright position upon leaving the trampoline with her feet about 1 meter below her center of mass. And during the accent, she could tuck, roll, or otherwise change her orientation so she's horizontal at her peak altitude and the lowest part of her body being a decimeter or so below her center of mass. So it would look like she jumped almost a meter higher than 3.7 meters.</span>

The 480 g bar is rotating as shown what is the angular momentum of the bar about the axle?
Greeley [361]
On a similar problem wherein instead of 480 g, a 650 gram of bar is used:

Angular momentum L = Iω, where 
<span>I = the moment of inertia about the axis of rotation, which for a long thin uniform rod rotating about its center as depicted in the diagram would be 1/12mℓ², where m is the mass of the rod and ℓ is its length. The mass of this particular rod is not given but the length of 2 meters is. The moment of inertia is therefore </span>
<span>I = 1/12m*2² = 1/3m kg*m² </span>

<span>The angular momentum ω = 2πf, where f is the frequency of rotation. If the angular momentum is to be in SI units, this frequency must be in revolutions per second. 120 rpm is 2 rev/s, so </span>
<span>ω = 2π * 2 rev/s = 4π s^(-1) </span>

<span>The angular momentum would therefore be </span>
<span>L = Iω </span>
<span>= 1/3m * 4π </span>
<span>= 4/3πm kg*m²/s, where m is the rod's mass in kg. </span>

<span>The direction of the angular momentum vector - pseudovector, actually - would be straight out of the diagram toward the viewer. </span>

<span>Edit: 650 g = 0.650 kg, so </span>
<span>L = 4/3π(0.650) kg*m²/s </span>
<span>≈ 2.72 kg*m²/s</span>

An important dimensionless parameter in certain types of fluid flow problems is the Froude number defined as V/√g.l where V is a
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1.24611

Explanation:

V = Velocity = 10 ft/s

L = Length = 2 ft

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/s²

Froude number is given by

Fr=\dfrac{V}{\sqrt{gL}}\\\Rightarrow Fr=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{32.2\times 2}}\\\Rightarrow Fr=1.24611

Converting to SI units

10\ ft/s=10\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}

32.2\ ft/s^2=32.2\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}

2\ ft=2\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}

Fr=\dfrac{V}{\sqrt{gL}}\\\Rightarrow Fr=\dfrac{10\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}}{\sqrt{32.2\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}\times 2\times \dfrac{1}{3.281}}}\\\Rightarrow Fr=1.24611

The Froude number is 1.24611

The Froude number is equal. The Froude number is dimensionless as the units cancel each other. In order for this to happen the units used need to be consitent either imperial or SI.
