The correct order is the following:

1) An atom fission
2) Neutrons are produced
3) Neutrons find other atoms
4) Many atoms fission

This is the description of a fission chain reaction: initially, the reaction starts with the fission of an atom with unstable nucleus. In the fission, neutrons are produced, and they travel through the surrounding medium. Eventually, they meet other atoms and they are captured by their nuclei: the nuclei become unstable and they undergo fission as well.

Why caring a body and moving with it is not a work done<br><br> Why :​
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Work done on an object is equal to

FDcos(angle).

So, naturally, if you lift a book from the floor on top of the table you do work on it since you are applying a force through a distance.

However, I often see the example of carrying a book through a horizontal distance is not work. The reasoning given is this: The force you apply is in the vertical distance, countering gravity and thus not in the direction of motion.

But surely you must be applying a force (and thus work) in the horizontal direction as the book would stop due to air friction if not for your fingers?

Is applying a force through a distance only work if causes an acceleration? That wouldn't make sense in my mind. If you are dragging a sled through snow, you are still doing work on it, since the force is in the direction of motion. This goes even if velocity is constant due to friction.

From the first law of thermodynamics, we use the equation expressed as:

ΔH = Q + W

where Q is the heat absorbed of the system and W is the work done.

We calculate as follows:

ΔH = Q + W
ΔH = 829 J + 690 J = 1519 J

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A migrating robin flies due north with a speed of 12 m/s relative to the air. The air moves due east with a speed of 6.7 m/s rel
mafiozo [28]

Here it is given that speed of migrating Robin is 12 m/s relative to air

so we can say that

\vec v_{ra} = 12 m/s North

so it will be

Let North direction is along Y axis and East direction is along X axis

\vec v_{ra} = 12\hat j

also it is given that speed of air is 6.7 m/s relative to ground

\vec v_a = 6.7 \hat i

now as we know by the concept of relative motion

\vec v_{ab} = \vec v_a - \vec v_b

\vec v_{ra} = \vec v_r  - \vec v_a

now by rearranging the terms

\vec v_r = \vec v_{ra} + \vec v_a

\vec v_r = 12 \hat j + 6.7 \hat i

now we need to find the speed of Robin which means we need to find the magnitude of its velocity which we found above

So here we will say

v_r = \sqrt{12^2 + 6.7^2}

v_r = 13.7 m/s

so the net speed of Robin with respect to ground will be 13.7 m/s

One end of a string is fixed. An object attached to the other end moves on a horizontal plane with uniform circular motion of ra
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

If both the radius and frequency are doubled, then the tension is increased 8 times.

Explanation:

The radial acceleration (a_{r}), measured in meters per square second, experimented by the moving end of the string is determined by the following kinematic formula:

a_{r} = 4\pi^{2}\cdot f^{2}\cdot R (1)

Where:

f - Frequency, measured in hertz.

R - Radius of rotation, measured in meters.

From Second Newton's Law, the centripetal acceleration is due to the existence of tension (T), measured in newtons, through the string, then we derive the following model:

\Sigma F = T = m\cdot a_{r} (2)

Where m is the mass of the object, measured in kilograms.

By applying (1) in (2), we have the following formula:

T = 4\pi^{2}\cdot m\cdot f^{2}\cdot R (3)

From where we conclude that tension is directly proportional to the radius and the square of frequency. Then, if radius and frequency are doubled, then the ratio between tensions is:

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = \left(\frac{f_{2}}{f_{1}} \right)^{2}\cdot \left(\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}} \right) (4)

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = 4\cdot 2

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = 8

If both the radius and frequency are doubled, then the tension is increased 8 times.
