Answer:

The total binding energy of the nucleus with 200 nucleons more than the total binding energy of the nucleus with 60 nucleons

Explanation:

Binding energy can be given by the formula:

Binding energy = Binding energy per nucleon * Number of nucleons

This means that if the binding energy per nucleon = x MeV

Where x is a positive real number

The nucleus with 60 nucleons will have Binding energy = 60x MeV

The nucleus with 200 nucleons will have binding energy = 200x MeV

For a +ve x, 200x > 60x

A 0.200-m uniform bar has a mass of 0.795 kg and is released from rest in the vertical position, as the drawing indicates. The s
aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

Since, the rod is present in vertical position and the spring is unrestrained.

So, initial potential energy stored in the spring is U_{s} = 0

And, initial potential gravitational potential energy of the rod is U_{g} = \frac{mgL}{2}.

It is given that,

       mass of the bar = 0.795 kg

            g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

           L = length of the rod = 0.2 m

Initial total energy T = \frac{mgL}{2}

Now, when the rod is in horizontal position then final total energy will be as follows.

            T = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + I \omega^{2}

where,    I = moment of inertia of the rod about the end = \frac{mL^{2}}{3}

Also,    \omega = \frac{\nu}{L}

where,    \nu = speed of the tip of the rod

              x = spring extension

The initial unstrained length is x_{o} = 0.1 m

Therefore, final length will be calculated as follows.

              x' = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m

Then,  x = x' - x_{o}

          x = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m - 0.1 m

             = 0.1236 m

       k = 25 N/m

So, according to the law of conservation of energy

       \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1 \times mL^{2}}{2 \times 3}(\frac{\nu}{L})^{2}

      \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

   \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

  \frac{0.795 kg \times 9.8 \times 0.2 m}{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 27 N/m \times (0.1236)^{2} + \frac{1}{6} \times 0.795 \times v^{2}

          v = 2.079 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that tangential speed with which end A strikes the horizontal surface is 2.079 m/s.

Calculate the speed for a car that went a distance of 125 meters in 2 seconds time.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

<h2>62.5 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The speed of the car can be found by using the formula

s =  \frac{d}{t} \\

d is the distance

t is the time

From the question we have

s =  \frac{125}{2}  = 62.5 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>62.5 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

Abundant energy: Fusing atoms together in a controlled way releases nearly four million times more energy than a chemical reaction such as the burning of coal, oil or gas and four times as much as nuclear fission reactions (at equal mass)
