Answer:

Plasma

Explanation:

For a fusion reaction to take place, there must be conditions in which the particles have extreme thermal kinetic energies, in this way the collisions that cause the nuclear fusion are generated. Therefore, it is necessary to reach very high temperatures, in which the state of matter will necessarily be plasma.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

amount of energy = 4730.4 kWh/yr

amount of money = 520.34 per year

payback period = 0.188 year

Explanation:

given data

light fixtures = 6

lamp = 4

power = 60 W

average use = 3 h a day

price of electricity = $0.11/kWh

to find out

the amount of energy and money that will be saved and simple payback period if the purchase price of the sensor is $32 and it takes 1 h to install it at a cost of $66

solution

we find energy saving by difference in time the light were

ΔE = no of fixture × number of lamp × power of each lamp × Δt

ΔE is amount of energy save and Δt is time difference

ΔE = 6 × 4 × 365 ( 12 - 9 )

ΔE = 4730.4 kWh/yr

and

money saving find out by energy saving and unit cost that i s

ΔM = ΔE × Munit

ΔM = 4730.4 × 0.11

ΔM = 520.34 per year

and

payback period is calculate as

payback period = $\frac{excess initial cost}{\Delta M}$

payback period = $\frac{32 + 66}{520.34}$

payback period = 0.188 year

A 56 kg diver runs and dives from the edge of a cliff into the water which is located 4.0 m below. If she is moving at 8.0 m/s t

Reil [10]

Answer:

1) 2197.44 J

2) 0 J

3) 2197.44 J = Constant

4) 2197.44 J

5) Approximately 8.86 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the diver, m = 56 kg

The height of the cliff, h = 4.0 m

The speed with which the diver is moving, vₓ = 8.0 m/s

The gravitational potential energy = Mass, m × Height of the cliff, h × Acceleration due to gravity, g

1) Her gravitational potential energy = 56 × 4.0 × 9.81 = 2197.44 J

2) The kinetic energy = 1/2·m·u²

Where;

u = Her initial velocity = 0 when she just leaves the cliff

Therefore;

Her kinetic energy when she just leaves the cliff = 1/2 × 56 × 0² = 0 J

3) The total mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

The total mechanical energy is constant

Her total mechanical energy relative to the water surface when she leaves the cliff = Her gravitational potential energy = 2197.44 J = Constant

4) Her total mechanical energy relative to the water surface just before she enters the water = 2197.44 J

5) The speed with which she enters the water, v, is given from, v² = u² + 2·g·h

Where;

u = The initial velocity at the top of the cliff before she jumps= 0 m/s

∴ v² = 0² + 2 × 9.81 × 4 = 78.48

v = √78.48 ≈ 8.86 m/s

The speed with which she enters the water, v ≈ 8.86 m/s

A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 38

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

the ratio is $\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

Explanation:

Given

$Initial Temperature T_1=387 KFinal Temperature T_2=774 K$

The RMS velocity of molecules in a gas is given by

$V_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3k_bT}{m}}$

where T=temperature

$k_b=constant$

For T = 387K

$V_1=\sqrt{\frac{3k_b\cdot 387}{m}}----1$

For T = 774

$V_2=\sqrt{\frac{3k_b\cdot 774}{m}}----(2)$

dividing eqn 1 and eqn 2

$\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{\frac{774}{387}}$

$\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

Thus,the ratio is $\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

A gas is compressed from 600 cm3 to 200cm3 at a constant pressure of 400 kpa. at the same time, 100 j of heat energy is transfer

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The initial volume of the gas is
$V_i = 600 cm^3$
while its final volume is
$V_f = 200 cm^3$
so its variation of volume is
$\Delta V = V_f - V-i = 200 cm^3 - 600 cm^3 = -400 cm^3 = -400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3$

The pressure is constant, and it is
$p=400 kPa = 400 \cdot 10^3 Pa$

Therefore the work done by the gas is
$W=p\Delta V = (400 \cdot 10^3 Pa)(-400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3)=-160 J$
where the negative sign means the work is done by the surrounding on the gas.

The heat energy given to the gas is
$Q=+100 J$

And the change in internal energy of the gas can be found by using the first law of thermodynamics:
$\Delta U = Q-W = 100 J - (-160 J)=+260 J$
where the positive sign means the internal energy of the gas has increased.

A teacher sets up a stand carrying a convex lens of focal length 15 cm at 20.5 cm mark on the optical bench. She asks the studen

Brums [2.3K]

We get the clearest image if there is no magnification. When we have no magnification the image and real object have the same size.
If we look at the diagram that I attached we can see that:
$\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i}{d_0}$
Two triangles that I marked are similar and from this we get:
$\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f}$
The image and the object must have the same height so we get:
$\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f};h_i=h_0\\
1=\frac{d_i-f}{f}\\
d_i=2f$
This tells how far the screen should be from the lens.
The position of the screen on the optical bench is:
$S=20.5cm+2f=20.5+2\cdot 15cm=50.5cm$
