Explanation:

The temperature must be hot enough to allow the ions of deuterium and tritium to have enough kinetic energy to overcome the Coulomb barrier and fuse together. The ions must be confined with a high ion density to achieve a suitable fusion reaction rate.

Answer:

The main condition necessary for a controlled thermonuclear fusion:

The ions must be held together in close proximity at high temperature with a confinement time long enough to avoid cooling.

Water holds in heat very well. Keep the temperature more steady and average. The areas around the water will also have a less variant change in temperature as a result. This property of water is known as high specific heat.

How is work defined in physics

Tcecarenko [31]

Explanation:

Work is the dot product of the force and displacement vectors.

W = F · d

In other words, it is the force times the parallel component of the distance.

W = F d cos θ, where θ is the angle between the force and distance.

An instructor gives a demonstration in which he makes a standing wave on a long thin slinky. The slinky is 6.0 meters long. If y

Naily [24]

The characteristics of standing waves allows to find the result for the speed of the wave is:

The speed wave is: v = 10 m / s

The wave is a way of transmitting energy without mass displacement, , in the attachment we can see a diagram of the standing wave.

Each cycle corresponds to half a wavelength, they indicate that the frequency is 2.50 Hz and there are three cycles, so the wavelength is:

L = $n \frac{\lambda}{2}$

λ = 2L/n

λ = 2 6 /3

λ = 4 m

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency

v = λ f

v = 4 2.5

v = 10 m / s

In conclusion, using the characteristics of standing waves we can find the result for the speed of the wave is:

The wave speed is: v = 10 m / s

Can you have zero displacement and nonzero average velocity? Zero displacement and nonzero velocity? Illustrate your answers on

Svetlanka [38]

a) Not possible

b) Yes, it's possible (see graph in attachment)

Explanation:

The average velocity of a body is defined as the ratio between the displacement and the time elapsed:

$v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta x$ is the displacement

$\Delta t$ is the time elapsed

In this problem, we want to have zero displacement and non-zero average velocity. From the equation above, we see that this is not possible. In fact, if the total displacement is zero,

$\Delta x = 0$

And therefore as a consequence,

$v=0$

which means that the average velocity is zero.

Here we want to have zero displacement and non-zero velocity. In this case, it is possible: in fact, we are not talking about average velocity, but we are talking about (instantaneous) velocity.

On a position-time graph, the instantaneous velocity is the slope of the graph. Look at the graph in attachment. We see that the position of the object first increases towards positive value, then it decreases (the object starts moving backward), then becomes negative, then it increases again until returning to the original position, x = 0.

In all of this, we notice that the total displacement of the object is zero:

$\Delta x = 0$

However, we notice that the instantaneous velocity of the object at the various instants is not zero, because the slope of the graph is not zero.
