Energy released during nuclear fusion?
gamma ray photon
What does it mean to say that mass is conserved during a physical change?
There is one meaning when mass conserves during a physical change. This means that mass will stay the same after the change.
When According to Duck and Cover what is the best place to be during a nuclear attack?
Mass Shelter
If there is no change in force as you increase the mass a truck is carrying its acceleration does what?
decreases
What happens to an objects mass when gravitational force is increased?
Nothing. The mass will not change with a gravitational increase, but the weight will.
Does the mass of water change going from a liquid to a solid?
No. Mass never changes, except during nuclear fission and fusion.
What is the nuclear reaction for the transformation of Cs-137 into Ba-137?
Beta Emission as there is no change in the atomic mass of the atom but there is an increase in the atomic no. of the atom.
What type of nuclear decay results in the atomic number increasing by one with no change in mass?
Beta- decay result in an increase of atomic number by one, with no resulting change in the atomic mass number.There is a change in mass, since an electron and an electron anti-neutrino is emitted, and also because the neutron changes into a proton, but the atomic mass number, per se, does not change.
Can a increase in density result from an increase in mass and no change in volume?
Yes. Density is mass/volume so if mass increases so does density if volume does not change
How does the law of conservation and the law of mass apply to change of state?
Well, when there is a change in state, mass doesn't increase or decrease (mass cannot be created nor destroyed). When there is a change in state, energy doesn't increase or decrease (energy cannot be created nor destroyed) although some of the energy may be lost as heat during the process.
What is the best place to be during a nuclear attack?
In a mass shelter.
What quantities do not change during a nuclear reaction?
If you consider the equation, E=mc2, you can see that an amount of mass can be considered as equal to an amount of energy. In other words, we could take all the mass in a nuclear reaction and figure out how much energy that represents. If you add that to the amount of energy present at the same time, you get a summation of energy (some of which is mass represented as energy). That amount of energy does not change in a nuclear reaction.
What term describes the tiny difference in mass between the products and reactants of a nuclear change?
mass defect
How does the law of conservation of mass and energy apply to changes of state?
Well, when there is a change in state, mass doesn't increase or decrease (mass cannot be created nor destroyed). When there is a change in state, energy doesn't increase or decrease (energy cannot be created nor destroyed) although some of the energy may be lost as heat during the process.
How does freezing water affect the volume and mass of water?
The volume increase, mass does not change.
What does E equals mc2 have to do with nuclear fusion?
Some mass is "lost" during nuclear fusion and E = mc2 gives the amount of energy that this "lost" mass will be equal to.
Energy released during nuclear fusion?
gamma ray photon
