The sun is bigger than the earth, therefore it has more gravitational force than the earth.

Answer:

The force remains same.

Explanation:

Let the mass of sun is M and the mass of earth is m. The distance between them is d.

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force between the two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Thus, the force exerted by the sun on earth is equal to the force exerted by the earth on sun are same which is given by

F = G\frac{M\times m}{d^{2}}

In the double-slit experiment with electrons, the electrons arrive at the screen in a
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

B. Wave-like way with a pattern that is wave-like

Explanation:

The double slit experiment when performed with electromagnetic waves, gives a pattern of light lines and dark areas, equally spaced.

In the case of electrons we must use Broglie's duality principle that states that all things have the characteristics of particles and waves together. The characteristic observed in a given experiment depends on the type of experiment, using the relationship

          p = h /λ

Where p is the amount of motion of the particle and λ the wavelength associated with this particle

In consequence of the previous one to the screen it should arrive as a wave with a wave type pattern

Let's review the answer.

A) False. The pattern is wave type

B) True. The whole process is with undulating characteristics

C) False. A wave arrives

D) False. A wave arrives

What’s the similarity between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
Darya [45]

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.

A stone tied at one end of the string is whirled in vertical circle, where is the tension in the string be maximum and minimum?
Ber [7]
<h3>answer</h3>

The minimum velocity required for a object to rotate in a verticle plane is v

1

=

5

gr.

So, at bottom point, T

max

=mv

1

2

/r+mg=6mg.

At top-most point velocity is v

2

=gr.

So, T

min

=mv

2

2

/r−mg=0

So T

max

−T

min

=6mg=2×g⇒m=1/3 kg
