<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Iron cannot release energy by fusion.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Supernovae are some of the most magnificent events in the cosmos. When a massive star dies, it can result in a spectacular explosion many times that of man's total nuclear arsenal.
When a star has used up all the lighter elements and has just iron left, it has no more nuclear "fuel". That causes the star to contract then explode very violently as a supernova.

A 600-g block is dropped onto a relaxed vertical spring that has a spring constant k =190.0 N/m. The block becomes attached to t

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Work done will be 2.205 j

Explanation:

We have given that the spring is compressed b 37.5 cm

So d = 0.375 m

Mass of the block m = 600 gram = 0.6 kg

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

Gravitational force on the block $F=mg=0.6\times 9.8=5.88N$

Now we know that work done is give by $W=Fd=5.88\times 0.375=2.205J$

A force (5ỉ - ;)N moves an object from the point P (1,3) m to the point Q (3, 8) m.

natita [175]

Answer:

b) 5 J

Explanation:

Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)

To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:

Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j

The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:

Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J
