Which of the following statements are TRUE about nuclear energy?

timama [110]

Answer:

he at 100k

Explanation:

All particles have energy, and the energy varies depending on the temperature the sample of matter is in, which determines if the substance is a solid, liquid, or gas. Solid particles have the least amount of energy, and gas particles have the greatest amount of energy.

The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles. A change in phase may occur when the energy of the particles is changed.

There are spaces between particles of matter. The average amount of empty space between molecules gets progressively larger as a sample of matter moves from the solid to the liquid and gas phases.

Key Terms

kinetic molecular theory: Theory of treating samples of matter as a large number of small particles (atoms or molecules), all of which are in constant, random motion

kinetic: Of or relating to motion.

lattice: A regular spacing or arrangement of atoms/molecules within a crystal.

phase: A component in a material system that is distinguished by chemical composition and/or physical state. Matter can exist in the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases.

The kinetic molecular theory of matter offers a description of the microscopic properties of atoms (or molecules) and their interactions, leading to observable macroscopic properties (such as pressure, volume, temperature). An application of the theory is that it helps to explain why matter exists in different phases (solid, liquid, and gas) and how matter can change from one phase to the next.

All particles have energy, but the energy varies depending on the temperature the sample of matter is in. This in turn determines whether the substance exists in the solid, liquid, or gaseous state. Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy.

A hungry 169169 kg lion running northward at 77.377.3 km/hr attacks and holds onto a 31.731.7 kg Thomson's gazelle running eastw

navik [9.2K]

Answer: 75,242.9 m/s

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following parameters

mass of Lion (ML) = 169,169 kg

velocity of lion (VL) = 777,377.7 m/s

mass of Gazelle (Mg) = 31,731.7 kg

velocity of Gazelle (Vg) = 63,863.8 kg

mass of Lion and Gazelle (M) = 200,900.7 kg

velocity of Lion and Gazelle (V) = ?

The first figure below shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their direction.

The second diagram shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their directions rearranged to form a right angle triangle.

from the triangle formed we can get the velocity of the Lion and Gazelle immediately after collision using their momentum and Phytaghoras theorem

momentum = mass x velocity

momentum of the Lion = 169,169 x 77,377.3 = 13,089,840,463.7 kgm/s

momentum of the Gazelle = 31,731.7 x 63,863.8 = 2,026,506,942.46 kgm/s

momentum of the Lion and Gazelle = 200,900.7 x V

now applying Phytaghoras theorem we have

13,089,840,463.7 + 2,026,506,942.46 = 200,900.7 x V

15,116,347,406.16 = 200,900.7 x V

V = 75,242.9 m/s

Explanation :

(1) Involuntary muscles are the muscles that are not controlled by our will.

(2) Tendons are the connective tissues that join the muscle to bones. Tendons are tissues that have fibers.

(3) Cardiac muscle is also involuntary muscles. For example heart muscle. It shows contraction and relaxation throughout life.

(4) Voluntary muscle is the muscles that are not controlled by our will.

(5) Biceps are the arm muscles.

Hence, this the required explanation as per options.

Newtons first law 1 to 5. <br>What is each of the net force for all of the 5 questions?

erica [24]

Answer:

1. 65 N.

2. 160 N.

3. 0 N.

4. 210 N.

5. 90 N.

Explanation:

1. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 80 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 145 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 145 – 80

Fₙ = 65 N

Thus, the net force is 65 N

2. Determination of the net force.

Force 1 applied to the left (F₁) = 35 N

Force 2 applied to the left (F₂) = 125 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = F₁ + F₂

Fₙ = 35 + 125

Fₙ = 160 N

Thus, the net force is 160 N.

3. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 75 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 75 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 75 – 75

Fₙ = 0

Thus, the net force is 0 N

4. Determination of the net force.

Force 1 applied to the right (F₁) = 150 N

Force 2 applied to the right (F₂) = 60 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = F₁ + F₂

Fₙ = 150 + 60

Fₙ = 210 N

Thus, the net force is 210 N.

5. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 115 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 25 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fᵣ – Fₗ

Fₙ = 115 – 25

Fₙ = 90 N

Thus, the net force is 90 N

I. What is the initial velocity of the car?

qaws [65]

Answer:

I. 0 m/s

II. 20 m/s

III. Part BC

Explanation:

I. Determination of the initial velocity.

From the diagram given above,

The motion of the car starts from the origin. This implies that the car start from rest and as such, the initial velocity of the car is 0 m/s

II. Determination of the maximum velocity attained.

From the diagram given above, we can see clearly that the maximum velocity is 20 m/s.

III. Determination of the part of the graph that represents zero acceleration.

It important that we know the meaning of zero acceleration.

Zero acceleration simply means the car is not accelerating. This can only be true when the car is moving with a constant velocity.

From the graph given above, the car has a constant velocity between B and C.

Therefore, part BC illustrates zero acceleration.
