These are two questions and two answers.

Part 1. Fin the value of the ration of velocity C to velocity D.


Answer: 2

Explanation:

1) Formula: momentum = mass * velocity

2) momentum C = mass C * velocity C

3) momentum D = mass D * velocity D.

4) C and D have the same momentum =>

mass C * velocity C = mass D * velocity D

5) mass C = (1/2) mass D => mass C / mass C = 1/2

6) use in the equation stated in the point 4)

velocit C / velocity D = mass D / mass C

using the equation stated in point 5:

mass D / mass C = 1 / [ mass C / mass D] = 1 / [1/2] = 2

=>

7) velocity C / velocity D = mass D / mass C = 2

Part 2: <span>ratio of kinetic energy C to kinetic energy D.
</span>
Answer: 2

Explanation:

1) formula: kinetic energy KE = (1/2) mass * (velocity)^2

2) KE C = (1/2) mass C * (velocity C)^2

3) KE D = (1/2) mass D * (velocity D)^2

4) KE C / KE D =

(1/2) mass C * (velocity C)^2        mass C        (velocity C)^2
--------------------------------------- = --------------- * ---------------------- = (1/2) * (2)^2
(1/2) mass D *( velocity D)^2        mass D        v(velocity D)^2

= 4 / 2 = 2

Four heavy elements (A, B, C, and D) will fission when bombarded by neutrons. In addition to fissioning into two smaller element
Zolol [24]

Answer:

<em>Element C will be best for a nuclear fission reaction</em>

Explanation:

<em>Nuclear fission is the splitting of the nucleus of a heavy atom by bombarding it with a nuclear particle. The reaction leads to the the atom splitting into two smaller elements and a huge amount of energy is liberated in the process.</em> For the reaction to be continuous in a chain reaction,<em> the best choice of element to use as fuel for the reaction should be the element whose nucleus also liberates a neutron particle after fission</em>. The neutron that is given off by other atoms in the reaction will then proceed to bombard other atoms of the element in the reaction, creating a cascade of fission and bombardment within the nuclear reactor.

If you increase the elasticity of a material, what happens to the speed of a mechanical wave going through it?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

At the molecular level, materials are held together by bonds, which act like springs for small displacements from the equilibrium spacing between neighboring atoms. Push the atoms close, the bond pushes back to keep them apart. Pull them apart, the bond pulls the atoms closer. For those small displacements, it acts like a spring

The speed of the wave will be related to the stiffness of of those springs - you compress the material - how quickly do all of those little springs rebound and push their neighboring atoms away, sending that wave of compression through the material.

A point charge Q is held at a distance r from the center of a dipole that consists of two charges ±q separated by a distance s.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

a) the magnitude of the force is

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3}) and where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b)  the magnitude of the torque on the dipole

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²

Explanation:

from coulomb's law

E = \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

where k = 1/4πε₀

the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is

E(r) = \frac{kp}{r^{3} } , where p = q × s

E(r) = \frac{kqs}{r^{3} } where r>>s

a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole

F=QE

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3})

where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces

τ = F sinθ × s

θ = 90°

note: sin90° = 1

τ = F × r

recall  F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
