How large amount of energy is produced during the fission of uranium ​

Physics
1 answer:
vova2212 [387]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

answer is a very large amount of energy is produced from a very small mass

Explanation:

nuclear energy is produced either by fusion or fission the former is fusion of lighter atoms into heavier elements while the letter is the splitting of a heavier atom into lighter atoms. both produce tremendous amount of energy fusion causes compassion of mass wild fission reduces it. and produce it. fusion does not produce radioactive particles while fission does (alpha and beta particles and neutrons)

If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock com
Lelu [443]

Answer:

<em> B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

This is the complete question

A person will feel a shock when a current of greater than approximately 100μ A flows between his index finger and thumb. If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock compare in each scenario?

A) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times smaller than the voltage on wet skin.

B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

C) The voltage on dry skin is the same as the voltage on wet skin.

D) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 40,000 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

Ohm's law states that electric current is proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

the equation is written as

V = IR

Where V is the voltage

I is the current

R is the resistance

for this case, the current I is 100μ A = 100 x 10^16 A

resistance of wet skin = R

resistance of dry skin = 200R

for the wet skin, voltage will be

V = IR = 100*10^{-6} R

for dry skin, voltage will be

V = IR = 100*10^{-6}*200R = 0.02R

Comparing both voltages

0.02R ÷  100*10^{-6} R  = 200

<em>this means that the voltage on the wet skin should be 200 times lesser than the voltage on the dry skin or the voltage on the dry skin should be 200 times more than the voltage on the wet skin.</em>

A physics student throws a softball straight up into the air. The ball was in the air for a total of 3.56 s before it was caught
meriva

Answer:

The initial velocity of the softball is 14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

This is a case of an object which experiments a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from air friction and Earth's rotation can be neglected.

From statement we must understand that the student threw the softball upwards and it is caught at original position 3.56 seconds later. Initial and final heights, time and gravitational acceleration are known and initial speed is unknown. The following equation of motion is used:

y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2} (Eq. 1)

Where:

y_{o} - Initial height of the softball, measured in meters.

y - Final height of the softball, measured in meters.

v_{o} - Initial velocity of the softball, measured in meters per second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that y = y_{o}, t = 3.56\,s and g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, the initial velocity of the softball is:

v_{o}\cdot (3\,s)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3\,s)^{2} = 0

3\cdot v_{o} -44.132\,m= 0

v_{o} = 14.711\,\frac{m}{s}

The initial velocity of the softball is 14.711 meters per second.

What is the dependent variable in this
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

"the plants had already started growing."

Explanation:

I think this is the answer because the definition of a dependent variable is the variable that is being affected by the change. Since the plants had already started growing BECAUSE of "They ran out of the farmer's compost, so

some of the plants received that compost

when the seeds were planted and other

plants got hardware store compost after

the plants had already started growing."

Sorry if I am wrong, I am just a 4th grader, pls don't hate on me, I am just trying to help :)
