old stars obtain part of their energy by the fusion of three alpha particles to form a 12/6c nucleus, whose mass is 12.0000 u. H
marta [7]

Answer:

11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J or 7.3 MeV is given off

Explanation:

Mass of an alpha particle = 4.0026u,   ∴ mass of three = 12.0078u

Find the difference in mass.

Mass of three alpha - Mass of Carbon nucleus

12.0078u - 12u = 0.0078u

Since 1u = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

Therefore, 0.0078u = 1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷

Now that we know Mass(m) = 1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷ and Speed (c) 3 x 10⁸ m²s⁻²

Formular for Energy ==> E₀ = mc²

E = (1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷) (3 x 10⁸ m²s⁻²)²

E = (1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷) (9 x 10¹⁶) J

E = 11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J

Or, if you need your energy in MeV

1 MeV = 1.60x10⁻¹³ J

Just do the conversion by dividing 11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J by 1.60x10⁻¹³ J

It will give you 7.3 MeV

Three children are struggling and pulling on a single toy. Two of the children, Abe and Barry, are EACH (individually) pulling w
3241004551 [841]

Solution :

c). $\vec{F}_A = $ force applied by Abe

   $\vec{F}_B = $ force applied by Barry

   $\vec{F}_E = $ force applied by Eric

   $\vec{F}_R = $ Resultant force

$\vec{F}_A $  in the vector form can be written as :

         $\vec{F}_A = 0 \hat{i} + 60 \hat{j}$

$\vec{F}_B $  in the vector form can be written as :

         $\vec{F}_B = 60 \hat{i} + 0 \hat{j}$

The resultant,

$\vec{F}_R= \vec{F}_A+\vec{F}_B $

     $=(0 \hat i + 60 \hat j)+(60 \hat i + 0\hat j)$

    $=60 \hat i + 60 \hat j$

$|\vec{F}_R| = \sqrt{60^2+60^2}$

        = 84.853 N

d). As the three forces are in equilibrium, therefore,

$|\vec F_E| = |\vec F_R|$

$|\vec F_E| =84.853 \ N$

e). The direction of the force exerted by Eric is exactly opposite to the direction of the resultant force.

The direction of the resultant force is :

$\theta = \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{F_y}{F_x}\right)$

   $ = \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{60}{60}\right)$

  = 45°  north east

The direction of the force E is  45° west or  45° south west.
