"Nuclear stability is based on (choose

Physics
1 answer:
Elodia [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the ratio of protons to neutrons

Explanation:

Nuclear stability is based on the ratio of protons to neutrons. The nuclear space is made up of protons and neutrons that occupies the nucleus of an atom.

For every atomic nucleus, there is a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures the stability of the nucleus.

For sodium, Na, the neutron/proton ratio for stability is 12/11.

Any nucleus with a neutron/proton combination different from its stability ratio will be unstable.

Explain why the teenager and the wheelchair don't have the same kinetic energy, even though they have the same speed
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

their weight difference

Explanation:

weight adds to kinetic energy. a heavier object will have a higher kinetic energy because the extra weight will slowly increase or decrease the velocity depending on if it's being sent down a decline or inclined plane

What is the energy released from nuclear fuels inside a nuclear reactor used for
belka [17]
Each time a uranium nucleus splits<span> up it releases energy and three neutrons. If all the neutrons are allowed to be absorbed by other uranium nuclei the chain reaction will spiral out of control causing an explosion. To control the energy released in the reactor moveable control rods are placed between the fuel rods.</span>

Calculate the length of a pipe that has a fundamental frequency of 232 Hz. (Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.)
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Complete question:

Calculate the length of a pipe that has a fundamental frequency of 232 Hz. (Take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.)

a) Assume the pipe is closed at one end. m

(b) Assume the pipe is open at both ends. m

Answer:

(a) The length of the pipe if it is closed at one end is 0.37 m

(b) The length of the pipe if it is open at both ends is 0.74 m

Explanation:

Given;

fundamental frequency of the pipe, F₀ = 232 Hz

speed of sound in air, V = 343 m/s

(a) Assuming a closed pipe, the wavelength of the fundamental frequency is given by;

L = λ₀/4

λ₀ = 4L

The relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed is given by;

V = F₀λ₀

substitute the value of λ

V = F₀(4L)

V = 4F₀L

L = V / 4F₀

L = (343) / (4 x 232)

L = 0.37 m

(b) Assuming an open pipe, the wavelength of the fundamental frequency is given by;

L = λ₀/2

λ₀ = 2L

V = F₀λ₀

substitute the value of λ

V = F₀(2L)

V = 2F₀L

L = V / 2F₀

L = (343) / (2 x 232)

L = 0.74 m
