12. Energy from the breaking of atomic bonds in molecules (ex: C4 explosion)

Physics

1 answer:

Korolek [52]2 years ago

Answer:

endothermic energy or chemical energy

Explanation:

An endothermic process increases the enthalpy H of the system, during which the closed system (usually) absorbs thermal energy from its surroundings.

Chemical energy is the form of potential energy in which energy is stored in chemical bonds. The breaking of chemical bonds absorbs energy, while the formation of new bonds releases energy.

True or False. Recent findings lend strong support to the theory that a black hole lies at the center of the Milky Way and of ma

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In 2019 was taken the first image of a supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, which is a network of radio telescope located in different points of the Earth, with the purpose of making a telescope of the size of the Earth.

A radio telescope is an antenna that is capable to perceive the light in the radio part of the electromagnetic spectrum¹.

It is important to notice that in the picture what it can be seen is the effect that the black hole has in the nearby stars.

Key terms:

¹Electromagnetic spectrum: decomposition of light in its different wavelengths (from radio waves to gamma rays).

Problem 1: Two sources emit waves that are coherent, in phase, and have wavelengths of 26.0 m. Do the waves interfere constructi

Anton [14]

1) Destructive interference

The condition for constructive interference to occur is:

$\delta = m\lambda$ (1)

where

$\delta =|d_1 -d_2|$ is the path difference, with

$d_1$ is the distance of the point from the first source

$d_2$ is the distance of the point from the second source

m is an integer number

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

In this problem, we have

$d_1 = 78.0 m\\d_2 = 143 m\\\lambda=26.0 m$

So let's use eq.(1) to see if the resulting m is an integer

$\delta =|78.0 m-143 m|=65 m\\m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{65 m}{26.0 m}=2.5$

It is not an integer so constructive interference does not occur.

Let's now analyze the condition for destructive interference:

$\delta = (m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda$ (2)

If we apply the same procedure to eq.(2), we find

$m=\frac{\delta}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{65.0 m}{26.0 m}-0.5=2$

which is an integer: so, this point is a point of destructive interference.

2) Constructive interference

In this case we have

$d_1 = 91.0 m\\d_2 =221.0 m$

So the path difference is

$\delta =|91.0 m-221.0 m|=130.0 m$

Using the condition for constructive interference:

$m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{130.0 m}{26.0 m}=5$

Which is an integer, so this is a point of constructive interference.

3) Destructive interference

In this case we have

$d_1 = 44.0 m\\d_2 =135.0 m$

So the path difference is

$\delta =|44.0 m-135.0 m|=91.0 m$

Using the condition for constructive interference:

$m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{91.0 m}{26.0 m}=3.5$

This is not an integer, so this is not a point of constructive interference.

So let's use now the condition for destructive interference:

$m=\frac{\delta}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{91.0 m}{26.0 m}-0.5=3$

which is an integer: so, this point is a point of destructive interference.

A complete series circuit consists of a 12.0 V battery, a 4.70 O resistor, and a switch. The internal resistance of the battery

RoseWind [281]

With the switch open, there's no current in the circuit, and therefore
no voltage drop across any of the dissipative elements (the resistor
or the battery's internal impedance). So the entire battery voltage
appears across the switch, and the voltmeter reads 12.0V .
