Suppose a scientist doing an experiment in nuclear fusion starts out with twelve atoms. How many atoms will most likely result f

ddd [48]

<span>So we wan't to know what happens during nuclear fusion where we have 12 atoms. Nuclear fusion is a nuclear process where 2 or more nuclei will form 1 or more different nuclei with a release of energy. So if we start with 12 atoms, the most likely result will be 6 atoms. </span>

A constant voltage of 12.00 V has been observed over a certain time interval across a 1.20 H inductor. The current through the i

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The time is 0.5 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage V= 12.00 V

Inductance L= 1.20 H

Current = 3.00 A

Increases rate = 8.00 A

We need to calculate change in current

$\Delta A = 8.00-3.00= 5.00\ A$

We need to calculate the time interval

Using formula of inductor

$V=L\dfrac{\Delta A}{\Delta t}$

$\Delta t =\dfrac{L\Delta A}{V}$

Where, $\Delta A$ = change in current

V = voltage

L = inductance

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta t=\dfrac{1.20\times5.00}{12.00}$

$\Delta t=0.5\ sec$

Hence, The time is 0.5 sec.

What do hydrogen and helium have in common?

Savatey [412]

Atomic disguise makes helium look like hydrogen. ... A helium atom consists of a nucleus containing two positively charged protons and two neutrons, encircled by two orbiting electrons which carry a negative charge. A hydrogen atom has just one proton and one electron

Work is a transfer of (1 point) energy. force. mass. motion.

jok3333 [9.3K]

Energy is the ability to do work.

So work can not be done without the transfer of energy from one body to another.

Work is the transfer of energy.

A boat of mass 225 kg drifts along a river at a speed of 21 m/s to the west. what impulse is required to decrease the speed of t

zzz [600]

The impulse required to decrease the speed of the boat is equal to the variation of momentum of the boat:
$J=\Delta p=m \Delta v$
where
m=225 kg is the mass of the boat
$\Delta v=v_f-v_i=15 m/s-21 m/s=-6 m/s$ is the variation of velocity of the boat
By substituting the numbers into the first equation, we find the impulse:
$J=m\Delta v=(225 kg)(-6 m/s)=-1350 N s$
and the negative sign means the direction of the impulse is against the direction of motion of the boat.
