Answer:

D. Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction where nuclei of atoms( one of low atomic number and another with a higher atomic number) join together to form a much bigger nucleus and release a lot of energy.In the sun, which is a star of course, where light is released,hydrogen is converted to helium and the process releases massive energy into space in form of heat and light.

Answer:

D. Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei having low atomic numbers join together to form a heavier nucleus usually accompanied with a release of energy.

Stars (like our sun) are very large in size because they are made up of millions of hydrogen and helium atoms. They burn because deep in their core, nuclear fusion reactions occur due to the gases heating up as a result of pressure in the star's core.

This nuclear reaction causes a release of vast amounts of energy in the form of visible electromagnetic radiation. This visible electromagnetic radiation is known as Starlight.

Answer:

3500j

0.250 kg

14.14 m/s

220500 j

93.91 m/s

Explanation:

K.E =1/2 m v^2

first question

1/2×700×10=3500 j

second question

2×78.2/25^2= 0.250 kg

Third question

8kj=8000j

root (2×8000/80)= 14.14 m/s

Last one

P.E=MGH

so it will be

P.E=50×450×9.8=220500 j

the speed

root (2×220500/50)=93.91 m/s

At a given instant in time, two cars are traveling at different velocities, one twice as large as the other. Based on this infor
Sati [7]

Answer: No, is not possible.

Explanation:

We have two cars traveling at different velocities, one with velocity v and other with velocity 2*v

We want to know of it is possible to say which of these two cars has the larger acceleration at this instant of time.

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity, for example, if acceleration = 0, the velocity does not change.

Notice that knowing only the velocity at a given instant of time, we do not have any way of knowing the acceleration of each car.

Such that acceleration is given by the second Newton's equation:

F = m*a

force equals mass times acceleration.

We do not know any of these quantities for the cars, so we can not say anything about the accelerations.

We also could know the average acceleration if we know the change in velocity over an interval of time, such that:

Av acceleration = (change in velocity)/(interval of time)

But here we do not have a change in velocity, so again, we can't say anything about the acceleration.
