Explanation:
At first sight, it doesn’t make sense that both fission and fusion release energy.
The key is in how tightly the nucleons are held together in a nucleus. If a nuclear reaction produces nuclei that are more tightly bound than the originals, then the excess energy will be released.
It turns out that the most tightly bound atomic nuclei are around the size of iron-56.
Thus, if you split a nucleus that is much larger than iron into smaller fragments, you will release energy because the smaller fragments are at a lower energy than the original nucleus.
If instead you fuse very light nuclei to get bigger products, energy is again released because the nucleons in the products are more tightly bound than in the original nuclei.

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.
Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.
Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.
Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.
If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.
Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave
Answer:
The latent heat of fusion of water is 334.88 Joules per gram of water.
Explanation:
Let the latent heat of ice be 'x' J/g
1) Thus heat absorbed by 100 gram of ice to get converted into water equals
2) heat energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 25 degree Celsius equals
Thus total energy needed equals
3) Heat energy released by the decrease in the temperature of water from 25 to 11 degree Celsius is
Now by conservation of energy we have
Displacement is the final position of the object minus the initial position of the object.
Xf - Xi. Displacement is not the distance of the object. If you go to the right 10m and to the left another 10m, your displacement is 0m. But your distance is 20m
It's a physical change. the water is changing it's physical state
