Answer:
<em>the mass of one helium nucleus should be</em> <em>less than the mass of four hydrogen nuclei.</em>
Explanation:
Deep inside the core of the Sun, enough protons can collide into each other with enough speed that they stick together to form a helium nucleus and generate a tremendous amount of energy at the same time. This process is called nuclear fusion.
The mass-to-energy conversion is described by Einstein's famous equation:
E = mc2, or, in words, energy equals mass times the square of the velocity of light. Because the velocity of light is a very large number, this equation says that lots of energy can be gained from using up a modest amount of mass.
Photons In the proton-proton chain reaction, hydrogen nuclei are converted to helium nuclei through a number of intermediates. The reactions produce high-energy photons (gamma rays) that move through the "radiative layer" surrounding the core. This layer takes up 60 percent of the radius of the Sun. It takes a million years for energy to get through this layer into the "convective layer", because the photons are constantly intercepted, absorbed and re-emitted. In the core, the helium nuclei make up 62% of the mass (the rest is still hydrogen). The radiative and convective layers have about 72% hydrogen, 26% helium, and 2% heavier elements (by mass). The energy produced by fusion is then transported to the solar surface and emitted as light or ejected as high-energy particles.
Answer:
Ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions and helping tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate.
Explanation:
Can someone pls help us with this question I need the answer too
Answer:
2,8
Explanation:
The first electron shell would have 2 electrons, the second shell would have 8 electrons. This is because Neon has a relative charge of 10.
Answer:
Alburt Bandura
Explanation:
Rosalind has learned to be impulsive and seldom waits for her turn when playing with other children, this trait she has learned from her father, who is also an impulsive man.
The theorist who would most likely suggest that Rosalind has learned to be impulsive from watching her father is Alburt Bandura. Alburt in his famous Bebo Doll experiment confirmed that children learn from the adults behavior in their life.
