Answer:

C. The thermal energy released can cause the products to split.

Explanation:

Because this is fission its bleeding off the atom.

A neutron begins the reaction and more neutrons are formed in it ( D )

When a nuclear fission is started it will continue to occur on its own because Nuclear fission is a form of reaction that starts with the splitting of the neutron of an atom into smaller nuclei which will continue to split into much smaller nuclei infinitely ( i.e. Chain reaction )

Hence we can say that once a Nuclear fission is started it can continue to occur on its own because A neutron begins the reaction and more neutrons are formed in it ( i.e. chain reaction )

An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown

ira [324]

Answer:

The specific gravity of the unkown liquid is 15.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure, at the bottom of the tank in this case, can be calculated from

$P_{bot}=\gamma_{oil}h_1 + \gamma_{unk}h_2,$

where $h_1$ and $h_2$ are the height of the column of oil and the unkown liquid, respectively. Writing for $\gamma_{unk}$ , we have

$\gamma_{unk} = \frac{P_{bot} - \gamma_{oil}h_1}{h_2} = \frac{65\frac{kN}{m^2} - 8.5\frac{kN}{m^3}\times 5m}{1.5m} = \mathbf{15 \frac{kN}{m^3}}.$

Relative to water, the unknow liquid specific weight is 15 times bigger, therefore this is its specific gravity as well.

An atom with the expected number of neutrons, protons, and electrons is called a(n)

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Stable atom

Explanation:

A stable atom is one that has a balanced nuclear inter-particle force reaction as such the binding energy of a stable atom is sufficient to permanently keep the nucleus as one unit. Examples of a stable atom are the atoms of monoisotopic elements such as fluorine, sodium, iodine, gold, aluminium, and cobalt.

In a stable atom the expected number of proton, neutron, and electron are present while in an unstable atom or radioactive atom, there are more than the expected number of neutrons or protons, such that the internal energy of the nucleus is excessive and more than the binding energy, which can lead to radioactive decay.
