How does atomic bombs work?​

Physics

Answer:

Nuclear fission produces the atomic bomb, a weapon of mass destruction that uses power released by the splitting of atomic nuclei. When a single free neutron strikes the nucleus of an atom of radioactive material like uranium or plutonium, it knocks two or three more neutrons free.

Explanation:

this chain reaction releases tremendous amount of energy

A string of length L is under tension, and the speed of a wave in the string is v. What will be the speed of a wave in the strin
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The speed increases by square root 2 times.

Explanation:

Let the wave velocity initially be 'v' with tension in the string as 'T' of mass 'm'.

Given:

Initial length of the string (L₁) = L

Final length of the string (L₂) = 2L

Wave velocity in a stretched string of length 'L' is given as:

v=\sqrt{\frac{LT}{m}}

From the above equation we can conclude that if tension 'T' and mass 'm' remains the same, the wave velocity is directly proportional to the square root of length of the stretched string. Therefore,

v=k\sqrt L\\\\\frac{v_1}{\sqrt{L_1}}=\frac{v_2}{\sqrt{L_2}}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for v₂ in terms of v₁. This gives,

v_2=\frac{v}{\sqrt{L}}\times \sqrt{2L}\\\\v_2=\sqrt2 v

Therefore, the speed of the wave is increased by square root 2 times.

a motor pulls up a block suspended on a string, so that the tension in the string is equal to the qeight force on the block. the
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension in the string and mg is the weight of the block.

T = mg

By using Newton's second law

T - mg = ma

mg - mg = ma

a = 0

Thus, the acceleration is zero.

A projectile is launched with an initial velocity 60m/s at an angle 60° to the vertical. What the magnitude of it's displacement
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

the magnitude of the displacement after 5s is 137.31 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 60 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 60°

time of motion, t = 5s

the vertical component of the velocity, u_y= u\ sin \theta = 60sin(60^0)

The magnitude of the displacement after 5s is calculated as;

h = u_yt -\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 60sin (60^0)\times 5 - \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(5)^2\\\\h = 259.81-122.5\\\\h = 137.31 \ m

Therefore, the magnitude of the displacement after 5s is 137.31 m.

Match each label to the boundary it describes. convergent boundary new crust forms transform boundary crust submerges into the m
Paraphin [41]

The answers would be:

CONVERGENT boundary - Crust submerges into the mantle

TRANSFORM boundary - neither forms nor submerges

DIVERGENT boundary - new crust forms

If you'd like to know more about the different boundaries, read on:

Convergent boundaries occur when two plates move TOWARDS each other. The event where crust submerges into the mantle is called <em><u>subduction</u></em> and this occurs when an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide. The oceanic plate is more dense and thinner than the continental plate, so it slides under it.

Transform boundaries occur when two plates slide against each other. They move slide side by side, so nothing is formed nor do they go under each other. Although, this type of boundaries create strong earthquakes.

Lastly, divergent boundaries occur when two plates move apart. The separation creates a way for magma to come up. New crust is formed when the magma that seeps out is cooled by its cooler surroundings. This is observed in the mid oceanic ridge.
