Answer:

When uranium is mined, it consists of approximately 99.3% uranium-238 (U238), 0.7% uranium-235 (U235), and < 0.01% uranium-234 (U234). These are the different uranium isotopes. Isotopes of uranium contain 92 protons in the atom's center or nucleus. (The number of protons in the nucleus is what makes the atoms "uranium.") The U238 atoms contain 146 neutrons, the U235 atoms contain 143 neutrons, and the U234 atoms contain only 142 neutrons. The total number of protons plus neutrons gives the atomic mass of each isotope — that is 238, 235, or 234, respectively. On an atomic level, the size and weight of these isotopes are slightly different. This implies that with the right equipment and under the right conditions, the isotopes can be separated.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

mechanical energy per unit mass is 887.4 J/kg

power generated is 443.7 MW

Explanation:

given data

average velocity = 3 m/s

rate = 500 m³/s

height h = 90 m

to find out

total mechanical energy and power generation potential

solution

we know that mechanical energy is sum of potential energy and kinetic energy

so

E = \frac{1}{2}×m×v² + m×g×h    .............1

and energy per mass unit is

E/m =  \frac{1}{2}×v² + g×h

put here value

E/m =  \frac{1}{2}×3² + 9.81×90

E/m = 887.4 J/kg

so mechanical energy per unit mass is 887.4 J/kg

and

power generated is express as

power generated = energy per unit mass ×rate×density

power generated = 887.4× 500× 1000

power generated = 443700000

so power generated is 443.7 MW

Radda [10]

The  force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is zero.

<h3>Force required to pull one end at a constant speed</h3>

The force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

F = ma

where;

  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

At a constant speed, the acceleration of the object will be zero.

F = m x 0

F = 0

Thus, the  force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is zero.
