The overall efficiency of the conversion is 6.93%.
<h3>What is the overall efficiency?</h3>
We know that generation of electricity from radioactive fuels is one of the major ways by which we can generate electricity in many countries. Now the efficiency of each of the steps have been shown in the question;
- Conversion efficiency = 35%
- Transmission efficiency = 90%
- Light efficiency = 22%
Overall efficiency = (0.35 * 0.90 * 0.22) * 100 = 6.93%
The energy is obtained from;
6.7X10^13 J * 6.93/100
= 4.6 * 10^12 J

Missing parts;
The atomic number of uranium-235 is 92, its half-life is 704 million years and the radioactive decay of l kg of 235U releases 6.7X10^13 J. Generally, radioactive material is considered safe after 10 half-lives.
Assume that a nuclear powerplant can convert energy from 235U into electricity with an efficiency of 35%, the electrical transmission lines operate at 90% efficiency, and flourescent lights operate at 22% efficiency.
1.) What is the overall efficiency of converting the energy of 235U into flourescent light?
2.) How much energy from 1 kg of 235U is converted into flourescent light?
Fossil Fuels:
Coal and Oil
How they are formed:
Coal is formed from big plants, from a long time ago. When the big plants died, they formed layers at the bottom of swamps and the dirt began to pile up and it formed Coal.
Oil is a fossil fuel that has been formed from a large amount tiny plants and animals such as algae and zooplankton.
Spiral galaxies are most common
Answer:
If earth had no tilt, we would have no seasons.
Explanation:
As stated in the answer, if the earth had no tilt we wouldn't have seasons. The earth all around the globe would maintain the same temperature,
And due to the no tilt it would also change our orbit to a bit larger slant, in January when we are at our closest to the sun we WOULD have a mini summer. For the North and South Pole, they would remain cold.
Answer:
h = 4 in
Explanation:
GIVEN DATA:
volume of tin
we know that
volume of cylinder is 
so,



construct formula for surface area


minimize the function wrt h
solving for h we have
![h = [\frac{4 v}{\pi}]^{1/3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B4%20v%7D%7B%5Cpi%7D%5D%5E%7B1%2F3%7D)
we kow
so
h = 4 in
