Answer:

All nuclear power plants use nuclear fission, and most nuclear power plants use uranium atoms. During nuclear fission, a neutron collides with a uranium atom and splits it, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. More neutrons are also released when a uranium atom splits.

What is static electricity and how does it differ from current electricity

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

1. Static electricity is caused by the build up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor. 2. When objects are rubbed, a loss and/or gain of electrons occurs, which results in the phenomenon of static electricity.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

2.8351×10^7 N/kg

Explanation:

We know that,

W = mg -------(1)

where W = weight, m = mass, g = gravitational acceleration

Also from Newton's law of gravitation we know that,

F = GMm/r²

Where,

F = gravitational force,

G = universal gravitational constant

M,m = masses of object under gravitational influence

r = distance between the two center of masses.

Here we get

F = (Gm/r²)M -------(2)

From 1 and 2

The acceleration due to gravity = gravitational field intensity

So if you consider the gravitational field intensity at the surface of the asteroid,it is equal to the acceleration due to gravity at the same place.

So we get,

g = (6.67×10^-11)×9.3835×10^20/(47²) = 2.8351×10^7 N/kg

Could someone help me to solve this que?

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The speed of the ball B is 6.4 m/s. The direction is 50 degrees counterclockwise.

Explanation:

Assuming the collision is elastic, use the conservation of momentum to solve this problem. The conservation law implies that:

$m\vec v_{A0}+m\vec v_{B0} = m\vec v_{A1}+m\vec v_{B1}$

(the total momentum of the two balls is the same before (index 0) and after (index 1) the collision). Since B is stationary and A and B have the same mass, this simplifies to:

$\vec v_{A0} = \vec v_{A1}+\vec v_{B1}$

and allows us to determine the velocity of ball B after the collision:

$\vec v_{B1} = \vec v_{A0}-\vec v_{A1}$

The above involves vectors. Your problem suggests to use the component method, which I am assuming means solving the above equation separately along the x and y axes. Define x to align with the original line of motion of the ball A before the collision, and y to be perpendicular to x, pointing up:

$v_{B1x} = v_{A0x}-v_{A1x}\\v_{B1y} = v_{A0y}-v_{A1y}$

We just need to compute the x- and y-components of the known velocity of the ball A. Drs. Sine and Cosine come to help here.

$v_{A1x} = |v_{A1}|\cos 40^\circ\\v_{A1y} = |v_{A1}|\sin 40^\circ$

$v_{B1x} = |v_{A0}|\cos 0^\circ-|v_{A1}|\cos 40^\circ=(10.0-7.7\cdot 0.77) \frac{m}{s}\approx 4.1\frac{m}{s}\\v_{B1y} = |v_{A0}|\sin 0^\circ-|v_{A1}|\sin 40^\circ=(0-7.7\cdot 0.64) \frac{m}{s}\approx -4.9\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the ball B is $|v_{B1}| = \sqrt{4.1^2+(-4.9)^2}\frac{m}{s}\approx 6.4 \frac{m}{s}$ . The direction (angle from horizontal) is $\beta = \arcsin (-\frac{4.9}{6.4})\approx -50^\circ$ , i.e., 50 degrees counterclockwise.
