Nuclear fusion ____.

Physics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
5 0

Nuclear fusion takes place in the sun, letter A. The sun is a ball of hot gases. Initially, it contains hydrogen and helium. When they fuse together, it forms carbon. After carbon, nitrogen, oxygen silicon follows until it forms a massive hot ball of gases. The net result is the fusion of four protons into one alpha particle with the release of two positrons, two neutrons and energy.

Sound waves travel fastest through
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Solids: Sound travels fastest through solids. This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.

A biker to move from speed of 0 m/s to final speed of 25 m/s in 10 s. What is the acceleration of the bike?
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

a = 2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

initial speed = 0 m/s

final speed = 25 m/s

time = 10 s

acceleration of bike is equal to change in velocity per unit time

  a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{t}

  a = \dfrac{v_f-v_i}{t}

  a = \dfrac{25-0}{10}

         a = 2.5 m/s²

hence, acceleration of bike is equal to a = 2.5 m/s²

What is your acceleration while sitting in your chair. the latitude of corvallis is 44.4˚.?
marta [7]
 <span>You can start with the equations you know 

a=v^2/r = (2pi*r/T)^2/r = 4pi^2r/T^2 

Radius of earth (R) = 6378.1 km 
Time in one day (T) = 86400 seconds 
Latitude = 44.4 degrees 

If you draw a circle and have the radius going out at a 44.4 degree angle above the center you can then find the r. 

r=Rcos(44.4) 
r=6378.1cos(44.4) 
r= 4556.978198 km or 4556978 m 

Now you can plug this value into the acceleration equation from above... 

a= 1.8*10^8/7.47*10^9 
a= .0241 m/s^2 </span>

Explain why the types of technology valued can vary.
Elan Coil [88]
Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.

A crate is dragged up a ramp at constant speed. The work done on the system can be accounted for by:
Alex

Answer:

The work done on the system can be accounted for by;

Both E_g and E_{int}

Explanation:

The speed of the crate = Constant

Therefore, the acceleration of the crate = 0 m/s²

The net force applied to the crate, F_{NET} = 0

Therefore, the force of with which the crate is pulled = The force resisting the upward motion of the crate

However, we have;

The force resisting the upward motion of the crate = The weight of the crate + The frictional resistance of the ramp due to the surface contact between the ramp and the crate

The work done on the system = The energy to balance the resisting force = The weight of the crate × The height the crate is raised + The heat generated as internal energy to the system

The weight of the crate × The height the crate is raised = Gravitational Potential Energy = E_g

The heat generated as internal energy to the system = E_{int}

Therefore;

The work done on the system = E_g + E_{int}.
