A reaction occurs in which a neutron strikes the nucleus of a uranium-235 atom, forming a krypton-92 atom, a barium-141 atom, and three neutrons. Is this a chemical reaction or a nuclear reaction, and how do you know? A. This is a nuclear reaction, because the atom's nucleus changed.
B. This is a nuclear reaction, because thorium is a product.
C. This is a chemical reaction, because products formed.
D. This is a chemical reaction, because only the electrons were rearranged.

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?

Consider a uniformly charged ring in the xy plane, centered at the origin. the ring has radius a and positive charge qdistributed evenly along its circumference. a)what is the direction of the electric field at any point on the z axis? . b)what is the magnitude of the electric field along the positive z axis? use k in your answer, where k=14πϵ0. d)the ball will oscillate along the z axis between z=d and z=−d in simple harmonic motion. what will be the angular frequency ω of these oscillations? use the approximation d≪a to simplify your calculation; that is, assume that d2+a2≈a2. express your answer in terms of given charges, dimensions, and constants
