The process of splitting one large nucleus into
smaller ones is nuclear fission.
The process of combining two small nuclei into
one larger one is nuclear fusion.
Answer:
Decreases by
times
Explanation:
The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.
The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.
In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. 
In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = 
But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = 
=
times
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
The astronaut will know due to the light from the explosion.
Explanation:
Sound and vibrations require a medium such as air to travel through. Space, there is no air. Only a vacuum. So sound and vibrations are unable to travel. Light requires no medium to travel. It can go through a vacuum.
Therefore the Astronaut will see a bright flash of light as it travels from the explosion to outer space. It is also important to note that light can travel very far because nothing else interacts with its wave particles and as such, it cannot be impeded.
