Answer:
The initial energy emission occurs by 80% or more in the form of gamma rays but these are quickly absorbed and dispersed mostly by air in little more than a microsecond, converting gamma radiation into thermal radiation (thermal pulse ) and kinetic energy (shock wave) which are actually the two dominant effects in the initial moments of the explosion. The rest of the energy is released in the form of delayed radiation (fallout or fallout) and is not always counted when measuring the performance of the explosion.
Explanation:
High altitude explosions produce greater damage and extreme radiation flux due to lower air density (photons encounter less opposition) and consequently a higher blast wave is generated.
Answer:
352,088.37888Joules
Explanation:
Complete question;
A hiker of mass 53 kg is going to climb a mountain with elevation 2,574 ft.
A) If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft., what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules, once they reach the top? (Assume the zero of gravitational potential is at sea level)
Chane in potential energy is expressed as;
ΔGPH = mgΔH
m is the mass of the hiker
g is the acceleration due to gravity;
ΔH is the change in height
Given
m = 53kg
g = 9.8m/s²
ΔH = 2574-350 = 2224ft
since 1ft = 0.3048m
2224ft = (2224*0.3048)m = 677.8752m
Required
Gravitational potential energy
Substitute the values into the formula;
ΔGPH = mgΔH
ΔGPH = 53(9.8)(677.8752)
ΔGPH = 352,088.37888Joules
Hence the gravitational potential energy is 352,088.37888Joules
Answer:
1/60 mps
Explanation:
We would first have to divide 60 by 60 because there is 60mins per hour to get 1mpm. After that we would have to divide 1 by 60 because there are 60 secs in a min. So our final answer after doing 1/60 would be a fraction.
