Katarina [22]3 years ago
5 0

True

Explanation:

Nuclear reactions have many useful applications but they also have harmful biological effects. Nuclear reactions are that occurs in the nucleus of an atoms. They differ from chemical reactions which occurs using valence electrons.

Some uses of nuclear reactions:

  • They are used for cancer therapy
  • Radioactive tracers.
  • Production of energy
  • Radiometric dating

Some harmful effects:

  • Uncontrolled nuclear reactions can lead to nuclear wastes in the environment.
  • They are used in manufacturing nuclear weapons.
  • They cause destruction of living cells because they produce ionizing radiations.

A bullet with a mass m b = 11.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity v b = 249 m/s. The block is attached to a spring tha
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

0.358Kg

Explanation:

The potential energy in the spring at full compression = the initial kinetic energy of the bullet/block system

0.5Ke^2 = 0.5Mv^2

0.5(205)(0.35)^2 = 12.56 J = 0.5(M + 0.0115)v^2

Using conservation of momentum between the bullet and the block

0.0115(265) = (M + 0.0115)v

3.0475 = (M + 0.0115)v

v = 3.0475/(M + 0.0115)

plugging into Energy equation

12.56 = 0.5(M + 0.0115)(3.0475)^2/(M + 0.0115)^2

12.56 = 0.5 × 3.0475^2 / ( M + 0.0115 )

12.56 = 0.5 × 9.2872/ M + 0.0115

12.56 = 4.6436/ M + 0.0115

12.56 ( M + 0.0115 ) = 4.6436

12.56M + 0.1444 = 4.6436

12.56M = 4.6436 - 0.1444

12.56 M = 4.4992

M = 4.4992÷12.56

M = 0.358 Kg

The velocity of the wave involved in the Doppler effect:
Margarita [4]

The Doppler Effect provides the equation for the calculation of apparent frequency:

f=fo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

where:<span>
vo=source wave velocity 
vr=relative speed between source and observer 
f=apparent frequency 
fo=source frequency </span>

<span>
The velocity of the doppler wave is 
v=λf</span>

where λ is light wavelength. Hence,

v=λfo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

Based on the equation, we can say that wave velocity will always be defined by one and only one wavelength.

Therefore the answer is letter C.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The workdone is  W = -177.275J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The initial Volume is  Vi = 0.160 L

      The final volume is  V_f = 0.510L

      The external pressure is  P = 5.00 \ atm

Generally the change in volume is

           \Delta V = V_f - V_i

Substituting values we have

           \Delta V = 0.510 -0.160

                 = 0.350L

Generally workdone is mathematically represented as

           W = -P \Delta V

W is negative because the working is done on the environment by the system which is indicated by volume increase

     Substituting values

                W = - 5* 0.350

                    = -1.75 \ L \ \cdot atm

Now  1 \  L \cdot atm = 101.3J

  Therefore  W = -1.75* 101.3

                          = -177.275J
