This is fusion not fission. In stars like our sun, hydrogen is turned into helium

What is it called when materials of low mass are fused together to form substance of higher mass?

This process is known as nuclear fusion, and it is the reaction that powers the sun and other stars. Two lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process.


What is a low pressure air mass?

A low pressure air mass is a large body of air with lower atmospheric pressure than its surrounding environment. It typically brings unstable weather conditions, such as clouds, precipitation, and wind. Low pressure systems are associated with rising air and can lead to the formation of storms.


What does the low pressure air mass do?

The Low Pressure Air Mass is the active feature of Our Atmosphere, air rises at it's center.The High Pressure Air Mass exists where-ever the Low does not: Air rising at the center of Lows descends at the centers of High Pressure Systems.The Low Pressure Air Mass acts as a Heat Pump that takes Heat North and Cold South.


What air mass is warm and dry?

A warm and dry air mass is typically classified as a continental tropical air mass. This air mass forms over hot and dry regions on continents, leading to warm temperatures and low humidity.


Which subatomic particles have mass and re included in the calculation of the atomic mass number?

Protons and neutrons are the subatomic particles that have mass and are included in the calculation of the atomic mass number. Electrons have very low mass compared to protons and neutrons and are usually not included in the atomic mass calculation as they contribute very little to the overall mass of an atom.

Materials of low mass are fused together to form a substance of higher mass during what?

During nuclear fusion, atoms of low-mass materials (such as hydrogen) combine to form a substance of higher mass (such as helium). This process releases large amounts of energy in the form of light and heat. It is the reaction that powers the sun and other stars.

In which of the following materials is the velocity of light greatest A Air B Water C Crown glass D Fused quartz?

The velocity of light is greatest in fused quartz. The speed of light varies depending on the medium it travels through, with the highest speed occurring in materials that have low refractive indexes, such as fused quartz.


What are high density and low density materials?

High density materials have tightly packed particles, resulting in greater mass per unit volume (e.g. lead, gold). Low density materials have more spaced-out particles, leading to lower mass per unit volume (e.g. styrofoam, cork).


What are things that have volume but not much mass?

Things like balloons, bubbles, clouds, and foam have volume but not much mass because they are made up of low-density materials.


What are some objects that have large volume but very small mass and weight?

Some examples of objects that have large volume but very small mass and weight include balloons filled with helium gas, foam materials, and large empty containers made of lightweight materials like plastic or aluminum. These objects displace a lot of space but have low density, resulting in low mass and weight.


Why does high volume and low mass equal low density?

High volume and low mass result in low density because density is calculated by dividing mass by volume. When the mass is low compared to the volume, the density will also be low because there is less mass per unit of volume.


Is the sun a low mass or high mass star?

There are more low mass stars. this is for two reasons:- # the star forming process generates more low mass stars # High mass stars burn out very quickly and explode as supernovas and thus over time there are less and less of them.


Do electrons move easily?

Yes, electrons move easily through conductive materials like metals due to their negative charge and low mass. In insulating materials, electrons are tightly bound to atoms and do not move easily.


Why are fused silica and inconel used for dilatometer construction?

Because of our coefficient of thermal expansion which is low. So they don't perturb the measure (or little). They have furthermore a CTE. That of Fused silica is around 0.5/0.6 µm/m.K. For measuring the low CTE of a material, it is necessary to make a first measure on an etalon sample of fused silica in goal of know the elongation of the sample holder.
