We can allow cut down the trees and have them (or the Oregon State nonviolent prision population) clean up the debris so that the company can […]
How many kilograms of H2O are necessary to provide enough hydrogen fuel to meet 10^20 J?
Assume that .015% of the hydrogen atoms in seawater H2O are deuterium. The atomic mass number of oxygen is 16. About how many kilograms of seawater would be needed to provide the hydrogen fuel for fusion reactors to meet 10^20 J? The number of deuterium atoms necessary to provide this magnitude of energy = 2.89 […]
