Help fill in the blanks this is for 8th-grade science btw.

answer is: nuclear fusion produces elements that are heavier than helium.

nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy.  

for example, fusion of hydrogen atoms at the sun.  

this fusion nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the sun and hydrogen (atomic number 1) is conveted into helium (atomic number 2).  

the inner core is the central region of the sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.  

answer: semi-infinite solid initially at a uniform temperature of 400 ◦c is cooled at its surface by convection. the cooling fluid at a constant temperature of 200 ◦c has a convective coefficient (ha) of 250 w/m2.k. the physical properties of the solid: k = 20 w/m.k and α = 4 * 10-5  m2/s. using δx = 0.04 m and δt = 10 s. write the finite difference equations describing the transient heat transfer of the first five δx and the temperature profile after 30 s.
