The basic fusion reaction through which the sun produces energy is __________.

Physics
1 answer:
zmey [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Fusion of hydrogen to helium

Explanation:

The sun produces its energy mainly by fusing hydrogen nuclei to form helium.

In the sun 4 hydrogen nuclei join to form one of helium, this fusion releases a lot of energy and because this fusion occurs in large quantities, this is where the energy of a star like our sun is produced, and that is the reason of its plasma state.

The energy produced in the fusion is received on earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

80Ω

Explanation:

Resistance in a series circuit (when one resistor is after another in the same line) is calculated with the following equation

Total resistance = R1 + R2 + R3...Rn

Substitute in your values and solve for total resistance

Total resistance = 60 + 20 = 80Ω

An electron is ejected from the cathode by a photon with an energy slightly greater than the work function of the cathode. How w
Ksivusya [100]

It will be approximately equal.

<h3>How will the final kinetic energy change?</h3>

We can infer that all of the energy in the electron is Potential energy (PE) because the energy provided by the photon is hardly enough to outweigh the work function.

It will gain kinetic energy (KE) as it advances in the direction of the anode because it is moving through an electric field. All of the PE will have been transformed to KE by the time it reaches the anode.

According to the question

K = hf - W

W = Work function

The energy of photons is comparable. After conversion, there was only a little amount of KE remaining.

Therefore, PE (W) essentially equals KE (K).

It will about be equal.

3. A 2kg wooden block whose initial speed is 3 m/s slides on a smooth floor for 2 meters before it comes to a
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Calculating Coefficient of friction is 0.229.

Force is 4.5 N that keep the block moving at a constant speed.

Explanation:

We know that speed expression is as \mathrm{V}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 . \mathrm{a} . \Delta \mathrm{s}.

Where, {V}_{i} is initial speed, V is final speed, ∆s displacement and a acceleration.

Given that,

{V}_{i} =3 m/s, V = 0 m/s, and  ∆s = 2 m

Substitute the values in the above formula,

0=3^{2}-2 \times 2 \times a

0 = 9 - 4a

4a = 9

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} is the acceleration.

Calculating Coefficient of friction:

\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=\mu \times \mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g}

Compare the above equation

\mu \times m \times g=m \times a

Cancel "m" common term in both L.H.S and R.H.S

\text { Equation becomes, } \mu \times g=a

\text { Coefficient of friction } \mu=\frac{a}{g}

\mathrm{g} \text { on earth surface }=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\mu=\frac{2.25}{9.8}

\mu=0.229

Hence coefficient of friction is 0.229.

calculating force:

\text { We know that } \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=2 \times 2.25 \quad(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{kg} \text { given })

F = 4.5 N

Therefore, the force would be <u>4.5 N</u> to keep the block moving at a constant speed across the floor.

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), what will be the nature of the char
uysha [10]

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), then the nature of charge gained by q must be positive, because rubbing an uncharged body with a charged body or placed in contact with a positive charged body, helps gain a charge to the uncharged body.

There are a variety of methods to charge an object. One method is known as induction. In the induction process, a charged object is brought near but not touched to a neutral conducting object.

Let's know, how a element gain positive charge?

A positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons. A positive charge may be created by adding protons to an atom or object with a neutral charge. A positive charge also can be created by removing electrons from a neutrally charged object.
