The commercial power generation is done using the nuclear fission reaction.

Answer: option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

The nuclear fission reaction is the reaction in the nucleus where the nucleus is divided into smaller parts. It is apparent from the name itself as it’s a destructive reaction where the nucleus splits.

This splitting of the nucleus occurs as a result of the heavy bombardment done over the atom through which the nucleus splits. The splitting is done into many parts of a smaller size.

Two equally charged, 1.00 g spheres are placed with 2.00 cm between their centers. when released, each begins to accelerate at 2

Leya [2.2K]

1) Force = m*a = 1.00 g * (1kg / 1000 g) * 225 m/s^2 = 0.225 N

2) Charge

Force = K (charge)^2 /(distance)^2 => charge = √ [Force * distance^2 / k]

k = 9.00 * 10^9 N*m^2 / C^2

charge = √ [0.225 N * (0.02 m)^2 / 9.00* 10^9 N*m^2 / C^2 ]

charge = 0.0000001 C = 0.0001 mili C

Multiple-Concept Example 9 reviews the concepts that are important in this problem. A drag racer, starting from rest, speeds up

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

V = 90.51 m/s

Explanation:

From the given information:

Initial speed (u) = 0

Distance (S) = 391 m

Acceleration (a) = 18.9 m/s²

Using the relation for the equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

v² - 0² = 2as

v² = 2as

$v = \sqrt{2as}$

$v = \sqrt{2*18.9*391}$

v = 121.57 m/s

After the parachute opens:

The initial velocity = 121.57 m/ss

Distance S' = 332 m

Acceleration = -9.92 m/s²

How fast is the racer can be determined by using the relation:

$V= \sqrt{v^2 + 2aS'}$

$V = \sqrt{121.57^2+ 2 (-9.92)(332)}$

V = 90.51 m/s

A tennis ball is tossed up off a building with a velocity of 22m/s. It takes 6.4s to reach the ground. How high is the building

Amanda [17]

The height of the tennis ball,relative to the ground is H=h max+h-->h max-the maximum height that the tennis ball reaches relative to the roof of the building; h-the height of the building;h max =v0^2/2g=24,2m(g=10m/s^2).H=gt^2/2=>24,2+h=gt^2/2=>h=gt^2/2-24,2=180,6m
