Answer:
(A) 10052.2 m/s²
(B) 0.00678 seconds
Explanation:
From the question,
(A) Applying
V² = U²+2as..................... Equation 1
Where V = Final velocity, U = Initial velocity, a = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.
make a the subject of the equation
a = (V²-U²)/2s........................ Equation 2
Given: U = 0 m/s( from rest), V = 68 m/s, s = 0.230 m
Substitute these values into equation 2
a = (68²-0²)/(2×0.230)
a = 10052.2 m/s²
(B) Using,
a = (V-U)/t......................... Equation 3
Where t= time.
make t the subject of the equation
t = (V-U)/a......................... Equation 4
Given: V = 68 m/s, U = 0 m/s, a = 10052.2
Substitute into equation 4
t = (68-0)/10052.2
t = 0.00678 seconds
Answer: 0.0163
Explanation: fn=n x v/2L
Fundamental frequency =f1
1 x (343/2L) = 10500
Rearrange the equation
L= v/(2xFn)
L= 343/(2x10500)
L=0.0163
The correct answer is
A. Chain reaction
This is how the chain reaction works in a process of nuclear fission:
1) Slow-moving neutrons reach heavy, unstable, radioactive nuclei (such as Uranium-235)
2) The neutrons interact with the nuclei of Uranium, which break apart producing smaller nuclei and additional neutrons
3) The neutrons produced in the reaction are slowed down by a moderator (e.g. water) and they interact with new nuclei of Uranium, causing new fission reactions)
4) The new neutrons interact with new nuclei of Uranium, and so on...
