What is 3 examples nuclear transmutation?
Because transmutation, the change of one element into another, is only accomplished by some kind of change in the nucleus of an atom. It's a nuclear change, and a nuclear reaction is the only change that will facilitate transmutation.
What is bremsstrahlung?
Bremsstrahlung, rather simplified, is electomagnetic radiation produced by the deceleration of a charged particle when deflected by another charged particle, typically an electron by an atomic nucleus.
How are nuclear power plants different from other plants?
The source of the energy is the nuclear reactor, rather than a furnace for burning fossil fuels.
What is the lowest frequency?
The lowest frequency is 10 Hz. A human can hear frequencies from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Some frequencies can be felt rather than heard.
Does the sun create energy with fission or fusion?
The Sun is a GV2 class star, commonly called a "yellow dwarf". The "V" indicates that the Sun is a main sequence star (plotted on stellar color rather than brightness), and like all dwarf stars, its energy is derived from nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. The Sun fuses an estimated 620 million metric tons of hydrogen each second in it's core.
What were other option rather an atomic bomb?
Atomic bombs are a type of Nuclear bomb and there are 2 types of nuclear bombs. The second type of nuclear bomb is a hydrogen bomb.
What is the chemical combustion of the sun?
The vast majority of the energy output of the Sun is not produced by chemical combustion at all, but rather by nuclear fusion of hydrogen to helium.
How do scientists make elements that are heavier than uranium?
They are made by stars through nuclear fusion. While we mostly use nuclear fusion just with hydrogen into helium, the nuclear fusion process can be used to make any and every element. All elements* up to Iron, yield energy during the fusion process. To procceed above iron, the fusion process takes energy, rather then supplying it. *minus a few select isotopes
How would you arrange Nuclear power Wind power and Petroleum from highest to lowest percentage of world wide use?
Assuming you mean total energy produced rather than electricity alone, the order would be petroleum, nuclear, wind power
Why is the sun's energy called nuclear energy?
The energy produced (or rather, converted) in the Sun comes from nuclear energy - that is, it involves changes to atomic nuclei. In this case, four hydrogen-1 atoms combine to one helium-4 atom. (The numbers refer to the isotopes involved.)
What is 3 examples nuclear transmutation?
Because transmutation, the change of one element into another, is only accomplished by some kind of change in the nucleus of an atom. It's a nuclear change, and a nuclear reaction is the only change that will facilitate transmutation.
What is the nuclear decay equation for uranium 233?
The equation for the alpha decay of 233U is: 92233U --> 90229Th + 24He representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus. 223U can also undergo fission, but since this is an rather unpredictable process, there is no standard equation.
Hydrogen plus hydrogen helium?
an isotope of hydrogen that has a mass of 2 rather then 1.09 fuses to make helium
An Infectious particle made up of protein rather then DNA or RNA?
Prion
Can atomic hydrogen be formed by sodium hydride?
When hydrogen is liberated from a compound in a chemical reaction it invariably forms molecular hydrogen, H2, rather than atomic hydrogen.
What is bremsstrahlung?
Bremsstrahlung, rather simplified, is electomagnetic radiation produced by the deceleration of a charged particle when deflected by another charged particle, typically an electron by an atomic nucleus.
Is D2SO4 concentrated sulfuric acid?
D2SO4 would be sulfuric acid with deuterium rather than hydrogen atoms. It can be as concentrated as you want. It's used to deuterate solvents like benzene and chloroform for use in nuclear magnetic resonance spectrography.
