<em>Radiant </em><em>energy</em>

Explanation:

Radiant energy is transformed into thermal energy as the popcorn kernels absorb the microwaves. This causes the kernels to become hot and pop. Electric energy is transferred from the electrical outlet to the microwave.

Calculate the nuclear binding energy per nucleon for 136^Ba if its nuclear mass is 135.905 amu.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

1.312 x 10⁻¹² J/nucleon

Explanation:

mass of ¹³⁶Ba = 135.905 amu

¹³⁶Ba contain 56 proton and 80 neutron

mass of proton = 1.00728 amu

mass of neutron = 1.00867 amu

mass of ¹³⁶Ba = 56 x  1.00728 amu + 80 x 1.00867 amu

                      = 137.10128 amu

mass defect = 137.10128 - 135.905

                    = 1.19628 amu

mass defect = 1.19628 x 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

                     = 1.9858 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

binding energy,

E = mass defect x c²

E = 1.9858 x 10⁻²⁷ x (3 x 10⁸)²

E = 17.87 x 10⁻¹¹ J/atom

now,

binding energy per nucleon =\dfrac{17.87\times 10^{-11}}{136}

                                              = 0.1312 x 10⁻¹¹ J/nucleon

                                              = 1.312 x 10⁻¹² J/nucleon

How often do spring and neap tides occur
iragen [17]

Answer:

Without thought to the season, Spring tides happen [two times] every [lunar] month the whole year. When the Sun and the Moon are quadratic, Neap tides also happen two times during a month.

Here is a picture to help show you:

(With the Spring tide, the moon is toward the "left" or "right" of the Earth. With the Neap tide, the moon is "above" or "below/under" the Earth. It's kind of hard to explain).
