How do fission nuclear reactions differ from fusion nuclear reactions?
A. Fission reactions involve the conversion of matter into energy, but fusion reactions do not.
B. Fusion reactions involve the conversion of matter into energy, but fission reactions do not.
C. Fission reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fusion reactions are not.
D. Fusion reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fission reactions are not.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but their applications differs.
Fission is the splitting of a large (heavy, unstable) nucleus into smaller ones, and fusion is the process where nuclei of small atoms are combine together to form the nuclei of larger atoms releasing vast amounts of energy.
The correct answer is c. Fission reactions are used to generate electricity for consumers, but fusion reactions are not.
The physics of fusion is the process that makes the sun shine, and that makes the hydrogen bomb explode.
No. It is D. Science is actually testable. That is the purpose of the scientific method: to TEST a theory. For something to be considered science, you must be able to observe, ask questions, develop questions, and test them. Thefore, it is a process. Lastly, yes. Science is a body of knowledge. It's a subject field that covers many things and numerous sub areas.

Answer:
The spring constant is 3750 N/m
Explanation:
Use the following two relationships:
(Work) = (Force) x (Displacement)
(Force) = (Spring constant) x (Displacement)
=>
(Spring constant) = (Force) / (Displacement) = (Work) / (Displacement)^2
(Spring constant) = 6.0 kg.(m^2/s^2) / 0.0016 m^2 = 3750 N/m
The spring constant is 3750 N/m
Answer:
Explanation:
velocity of ship with respect to water = 6.5 m/s due north
velocity of water with respect to earth = 1.5 m/s at 40° north of east
velocity of ship with respect to water = velocity of ship with respect to earth - velocity of water with respect to earth
The magnitude of the velocity of ship relative to earth is 
= 5.66 m/s
