Tritium and helium-3 have the same number of nucleons, but tritium has one proton and two neutrons whereas helium-3 has two protons and one neutron. Without doing a calculation, decide which nucleus has a greater binding energy. Explain. (Select all that apply.) a. This happens in part because the tritium nucleus has greater Coulombic repulsion.
b. This happens in part because the helium-3 nucleus has greater Coulombic repulsion between nucleons.
c. This happens in part because the tritium nucleus has an extra neutron enhancing the nuclear forces.
d. Helium-3 is more stable.
e. This happens in part because the helium-3 nucleus has fewer neutrons.
f. Tritium is more stable.

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.

Determine the time it takes for a satellite to orbit the earth in a circular "near-earth" orbit. the definition of "near-earth" orbit is one which is at a height above the surface of the earth which is small compared to the radius of the earth, so that you may take the acceleration due to gravity as essentially the same as that on the surface. does your result depend on the mass of the satellite?
