Answer:

C

Explanation:

Fusion and fission are similar in that they both release large amounts of energy. Nuclear fusion is a process in which two nuclei join to form a larger nucleus. Nuclear fission is a process in which a nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei.

Compare and contrast fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs.
dezoksy [38]

Incandescent light is a glowing white light produced by heat. An incandescent light bulb works by heating a filament in the bulb. Fluorescent light is a bright light produced by electricity flowing through a tube filled with ionized gas. Fluorescent light bulbs are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs

A gun shoots a bullet with a velocity of 500 m/s. The gun is aimed horizontally and fired from a height of 1.5 m. How far does t
MrMuchimi

The bullet travels a horizontal distance of 276.5 m

The bullet is shot forward with a horizontal velocity u_x. It takes a time <em>t</em> to fall a vertical distance <em>y</em> and at the same time travels a horizontal distance <em>x. </em>

The bullet's horizontal velocity remains constant since no force acts on the bullet in the horizontal direction.

The initial velocity of the bullet has no component in the vertical direction. As it falls through the vertical distance, it is accelerated due to the force of gravity.

Calculate the time taken for the bullet to fall through a vertical distance <em>y </em>using the equation,

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Substitute 0 m/s for u_y, 9.81 m/s²for <em>g</em> and 1.5 m for <em>y</em>.

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\ 1.5 m=(0m/s)t+\frac{1}{2} (9.81m/s^2)t^2\\ t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.5m)}{9.81m/s^2} } =0.5530s

The horizontal distance traveled by the bullet is given by,

x=u_xt

Substitute 500 m/s for u_x and 0.5530s for t.

x=u_xt\\ =(500m/s)(0.5530s)\\ =276.5m

The bullet travels a distance of 276.5 m.

givi [52]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity, a=4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Pluto, m=1.4\times 10^{22}\ kg

Distance between Neptune and Pluto, r=4.5\times 10^{12}\ m

The force of gravity is balanced by the gravitational force between Neptune and Pluto. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}

a=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.4\times 10^{22}}{(4.5\times 10^{12})^2}

a=4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration due to gravity at Neptune due to Pluto is 4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
