We first need to look at why fusion of hydrogen nuclei results in a lower energy state. On the face of it, hydrogen nuclei are just protons, which all carry an equal positive electric charge. This means t...

Begin by drawing a diagram with all the vectors that act on the box. This should include the normal vector (N), the weight of the box (G), and the static friction force (F_s). Write down the equ...

At first, when the parachutist is at 0ms-1 velocity (about to fall) there is only Weight acting downwards on the person, so the resultant force is down. F=ma, therefore the parachutist accelerates downwar...

Neutrinos are hard to detect because they are 100,000s of times smaller than an electron, so are too small to detect with current equipment. They also dont have a charge and do not interact with any other...

Work done = Force x distance the applied force has moved, hence 500 = 25d where d = unknown distance. Therefore the distance moved is 500/25 = 20m
