Answer:
Control rods
Explanation:
Control rods is unique to nuclear power plants as they are mainly used in nuclear reactors to stabilize the rate of fission of plutonium or uranium. They are usually composed of chemical elements such as cadmium, silver, boron, and indium.
Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface equals the angle at which it is reflected. Mirrors exhibit specular reflection.
Answer:
8000J
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of the car lost during breaking are converted to thermal energy and are gained by the brakes.
Kinetic energy loss by car = thermal energy gained by brakes.
∆K.E = ∆T.E ....1
The Kinetic energy loss by car can be expressed as;
∆K.E = K.E1 - K.E2
Initial K.E = K.E1 = 10000J
Final K.E = K.E2 = 2000J
∆K.E= 10000J - 2000J = 8000J
From equation 1,
∆K.E = ∆T.E
∆T.E = 8,000J
thermal energy gain by brakes = 8,000J
Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)
= (5 / second) x (30 mm)
= 150 mm/second = 0.15 meter/second .
The end or finish of an event or process.
