A helium nucleus is composed of two protons (positively charged) and two neutrons (charge neutral). The distance between the two

protons in the nucleus is 5.18E-15 m. What is the electric force between the two protons (in Newtons; use positive sign for repulsive forces and negative sign for attractive forces)

Answer:

Using the given values

F = K q^2 / r^2 = 9 * 10E9 * (1.6 * E-19)^2 / (5.18 * E-15)^2 N

E = 9 * 1.6^2 / 5.18^2 * 10 = 8.5 N

Which statement is the best interpretation of the ray diagram shown below?
madreJ [45]

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

Explanation:

The figure is missing; see attachment.

There are two types of mirror:

  • Concave (converging) mirrors: a concave mirror is a mirror that reflects the light inward
  • Convex (diverging) mirrors: a convex mirror is a mirror that reflects the light outward

The image formed by a mirror can also be of two types:

  • Real image: it is formed on the same side of the object, with respect to the mirror
  • Virtual image: it is formed on the opposite side of the object, with respect to the mirror

In the figure of this problem (see attachment), we see that:

- The mirror reflects the light from the object inward --> so it is a concave mirror

- The image is formed on the other side of the mirror --> it is a virtual image

So the correct option is

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

Nuclear chain reactions within power plants do NOT produce bomb-like explosions primarily because the ________.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: D. Density of uranium within nuclear fuel rods is insufficient to become explosive

Explanation: Nuclear power plants use the same fuel as nuclear bombs, i.e. radioactive Uranium-235 isotope. However, in a nuclear power plant, the energy is released more slowly unlike in a nuclear bomb. <em>The energy released is through nuclear fission, and radioactive decay occurs at the same rate as in nuclear bombs. therefore, option A, B</em><em> </em><em>and C are incorrect.</em>

The primary reason why nuclear chain reactions within power plants do NOT produce bomb-like explosions is because the uranium fuel rods used in electricity generation is not sufficiently enriched in Uranium-235 to produce a nuclear detonation. This is the same idea in option D which is the correct option.
