Why is fusion important?

Physics
1 answer:

Abundant energy: Fusing atoms together in a controlled way releases nearly four million times more energy than a chemical reaction such as the burning of coal, oil or gas and four times as much as nuclear fission reactions (at equal mass)

g A 1.5-kg mass attached to spring with a force constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At t = 0, t
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

(a)    f = 0.58Hz

(b)    vmax = 0.364m/s

(c)    amax = 1.32m/s^2

(d)    E = 0.1J

(e)    x(t)=0.1m*cos(2π(0.58s^{-1})t)

Explanation:

(a) The frequency of the oscillation, in a spring-mass system, is calculated by using the following formula:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}            (1)

k: spring constant = 20.0N/m

m: mass = 1.5kg

you replace the values of m and k for getting f:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{20.0N/m}{1.5kg}}=0.58s^{-1}=0.58Hz

The frequency of the oscillation is 0.58Hz

(b) The maximum speed is given by the following relation:

v_{max}=\omega A=2\pi f A      (2)

A: amplitude of the oscillations = 10.0cm = 0.10m

v_{max}=2\pi (0.58s^{-1})(0.10m)=0.364\frac{m}{s}

The maximum speed of the mass is 0.364 m/s.

The maximum speed occurs when the mass passes trough the equilibrium point of the oscillation.

(c) The maximum acceleration is given by the following formula:

a_{max}=\omega^2A=(2\pi f)^2 A

a_{max}=(2\pi (0.58s^{-1}))(0.10m)=1.32\frac{m}{s^2}

The maximum acceleration is 1.32 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs where the elastic force is a maximum, that is, where the mass is at the maximum distance from the equilibrium point, that is, the acceleration.

(d) The total energy of the system is calculated with the maximum potential elastic energy:

E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2=\frac{1}{2}(20.0N/m)(0.10m)^2=0.1J

The total energy is 0.1J

(e) The displacement as a function of time is:

x(t)=Acos(\omega t)=Acos(2\pi ft)\\\\x(t)=0.1m\ cos(2\pi(0.58s^{-1})t)

If the moon is a full moon tonight what will be the moon one week later waxing or waning
tatiyna

-- Starting from nothing (New Moon), the moon's shape grows ('waxes')
for half of the cycle, until it's full, and then it shrinks ('wanes') for the next
half of the cycle.

-- The moon's complete cycle of phases runs 29.53 days . . . roughly
four weeks.

-- So, beginning from New Moon, it spends about two weeks waxing until
it's full, and then another two weeks waning until it's all gone again.
 
-- After a Full Moon, the moon is waning for the next two weeks.  So it's
definitely <em>waning</em> at <em><u>one week</u></em> after Full.

50 POINTS URGENT HELP NEEDED SPACE
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Using two to three sentences, summarize what you investigated and observed in this lab. I investigated that Most of my planets and moons had the element carbon in them. I observed that Different elements absorb different wavelengths of light.

Astronomers use a wide variety of technology to explore space and the electromagnetic spectrum; why do you believe it is essential to use many types of equipment when studying space?

It is essential to use a number of telescopes sensitive to different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to study objects in space. Even though all light is fundamentally the same thing, the way that astronomers observe light depends on the portion of the spectrum they wish to study. Tools are useful, such as detectors that help see the different wavelengths of light. Not all light can get through the Earth's atmosphere, so for some wavelengths we have to use telescopes aboard satellites.

If carbon was the most common element found in the moons and planets, what element is missing that would make them similar to Earth?  Explain why. (Hint: Think about the carbon cycle.)

The missing element that would make moons and other planets similar to earth is oxygen. The two make carbon dioxide.

We know that the electromagnetic spectrum uses wavelengths and frequencies to determine a lot about outer space. How does it help us find out the make-up of stars?  

electromagnetic radiation Explanation, astronomers observe the wavelengths by putting telescopes on mountain tops and take results of what they are seeing

Why might it be useful to determine the elements that a planet or moon is made up of?

It might be useful so we can make new discoveries of life or even plants on other planets and moons. And discover maybe even more moons one other planets.
