Answer:

E = 13.428 \times 10^{46} J

Explanation:

Mass of the Sun = 1.989 \times 10^{30} Kg

Amount of Hydrogen = 75% of Mass of Sun,

thus mass of Hydrogen (m) in the Sun is,

m = 1.989 \times 10^{30} \times \frac{75}{100}

m = 1.492 \times 10^{30}

Speed of Light (c) = 3 \times 10^{8} m/s

Thus, energy(E) produced if whole of hydrogen is converted into energy,

E = mc²

E = 1.492 \times 10^{30} \times (3 \times 10^{8} )^{2}

E = 1.492 \times 9 \times 10^{46}

E = 13.428 \times 10^{46} J

How much heat will be needed to warm 187 grams of water from 10 0C to 90 0C?
kvv77 [185]
<h3>Hello there!</h3>

Here, you are looking for the amount of heat put in for water, at a mass of 187 grams, to change by 80 degrees.

The equation commonly accepted to find the answer to questions like these is the specific heat formula.

The equation is Q = mc∆T, where Q is the amount of energy put in to raise the temperature by a certain amount, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the amount of temperature change.

The information given:

m = 187 grams

c = specific heat capacity of water, or in this case 1 calorie, or 4.184 joules (which is what we will be using)

ΔT = 80 degrees

Now just plug everything in to solve.

Q = 187 * 4.184 * 80

Q = 62592.64

So you have your answer: 62592.64 joules.

Hope this helped!

An unstable nucleus which has a tendency to spontaneously change its form with the emission of high-energy particles or photons
Pepsi [2]

Answer:Radioactive

Explanation:

The radioactive nucleus is the one which does not has enough binding energy to hold the nucleus in a stable state and thus radiates either electron or proton to become a stable element.

A radioactive element is formed when after billions of years such as uranium and thorium. The stability of the nucleus depends upon the opposition of attractive and repulsive force among the nucleus.

Why does a Ray of light passing through a glass slab not shown dispersion?​
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

After refraction at two parallel faces of a glass slab, a ray of light emerges in a direction parallel to the direction of incidence of white light on the slab. As rays of all colours emerge in the same direction (of incidence of white light), hence there is no dispersion, but only lateral displacement.
