Answer:

Most of the US electric energy is produced with the help of coal, natural gas and nuclear energy.

Explanation:

The blades of the turbine which are connected to the electric generator are moved with the help of energy sources.

The heat which is produced with the help of coal, natural gas and the nuclear energy will help in producing steam and this steam will move the blades of turbines and by this phenomena the electrical energy is produced.

The above mentioned sources such as coal, natural gas and the nuclear energy are mostly used in US to produce electric energy.

Answer:

100m \div  \frac{9 \: m}{1sec}  = 11.11 \: sec \:

I guess you can round it to 11 seconds.

Explanation:

Going with a speed 9m/s means you are going 9 meters in each second.

If you are going 9 meters in second how many seconds will it take to 100 meters?

Visually;

9 meters - - - 1 second

100 meters - - - ?seconds.

When you write like this 9 times ?seconds equal to 100 meters time 1 second. (you probably know this but just in case)

So to find ?second you multiply 100meters by 1 and divide it by 9 whixh will give you 11.1111 seconds whixh again I believe you can round it to 11.

(Kind of a) Proof;

If 9m * ?sec = 100 m * 1 sec

you send 9 meters to other side.

?sec = (100 m * 1 sec) ÷ 9m

Hope it was clear and it helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha
Setler [38]
When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V
