Answer:

The process of breaking down of heavy nucleus into lighter ones is called nuclear fission.Similarly,the proces of combining lighter nucleus to heavy nucleus is also called nuclear fission.

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. How much work did you do ?
olga55 [171]
The answer is 125 Joules

The first thing to take note of is the work equation: W=F×D

Since we already have our force and our distance that will help make this problem easier.

So, W=25*5

W=125

Therefore, our answer is 125 Joules since work is measured in joules

Hope this helped!! :)

There are Z protons in the nucleus of an atom, where Z is the atomic number of the element. An α particle carries a charge of +2
qaws [65]

Answer:

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that the electrostatic potential energy of the charge system is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the alpha particle

So here we can write it as

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{k(2e)(ze)}{r}

now we know that

m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

z = 79

here kinetic energy of the incident alpha particle is given as

KE = 6.4 \times 10^{-13} J

now we have

6.4 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})^2(79)}{r}

now we have

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m
