Answer:
Because of the formula 
Explanation:
In this problem we are describing two different processes:
- Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei
- Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus
In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.
According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:
where:
E is the energy released in the reaction
is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass
is the speed of light
From the formula, we see that the factor 
is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.
Wouldn't it be neat if an electron falling closer to the nucleus ... emitting a
photon ... actually gave out more energy than it needed to climb to its original
energy level by absorbing a photon ! If there were some miraculous substance
that could do that, we'd have it made.
All we'd need is a pile of it in our basement, with a bright light bulb over the pile,
connected to a tiny hand-crank generator.
Whenever we wanted some energy, like for cooking or heating the house, we'd
switch the light bulb on, point it towards the pile, and give the little generator a
little shove. It wouldn't take much to git 'er going.
The atoms in the pile would absorb some photons, raising their electrons to higher
energy levels. Then the electrons would fall back down to lower energy levels,
releasing more energy than they needed to climb up. We could take that energy,
use some of it to keep the light bulb shining on the pile, and use the extra to heat
the house or run the dishwasher.
The energy an electron absorbs when it climbs to a higher energy level (forming
the atom's absorption spectrum) is precisely identical to the energy it emits when
it falls back to its original level (creating the atom's emission spectrum).
Energy that wasn't either there in the atom to begin with or else pumped
into it from somewhere can't be created there.
You get what you pay for, or, as my grandfather used to say, "For nothing
you get nothing."
Answer:
Explanation:
For entry of light into tube of unknown refractive index
sin ( 90 - 25 ) / sinr = μ , μ is the refractive index of the tube , r is angle of refraction in the medium of tube
r = 90 - C where C is critical angle between μ and body medium in which tube will be inserted.
sin ( 90 - 25 ) / sin( 90 - C) = μ
sin65 / cos C = μ
sinC = 1.33 / μ , where 1.33 is the refractive index of body liquid.
From these equations
sin65 / cos C = 1.33 / sinC
TanC = 1.33 / sin65
TanC = 1.33 / .9063
TanC = 1.4675
C= 56°
sinC = 1.33 / μ
μ = 1.33 / sinC
= 1.33 / sin56
= 1.33 / .829
μ = 1.6 Ans
The distance of the galaxy is 32.86 Mpc.
Using the hubble law, v = H₀D where v = apparent velocity of galaxy = 2300 km/s, H = hubble constant = 70 km/s/Mpc and D = distance of galaxy.
Since we require the distance of the galaxy, we make D subject of the formula in the equation. So, we have
D = v/H₀
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
D = 2300 km/s ÷ 70 km/s/Mpc
D = 32.86 Mpc
So, the distance of the galaxy is 32.86 Mpc
