Control rods<span> are </span>rods<span>, plates, or tubes containing a neutron absorbing material (material with high absorbtion cross-section for thermal neutron) such as boron, hafnium, cadmium, etc., used to </span>control<span> the power of a nuclear reactor.
so the statement that describe a control rod is:
</span><span>Control rods are lowered into the reactor to slow down the reaction by absorbing neutrons.</span>
<span>First draw a free-body diagram. Torque T = Force F x Distance d where force is the component of gravitational force g and d is the lever arm distance to the pivot point. Since the pivot point is at the back tire we subtract that from the length of the car resulting in d = 1.12 - 0.40 = 0.72 meters = d. We are interested in the perpendicular component of the force exerted on the car jack so use sin 8 degrees then T=1130 kg x 9.81 m/s^2 x sin(8 degrees) x0.72 m = 1,110.80 Newton-meters</span>
Answer:
they stick together when they get close
The speed does the block move after it is hit by the bullet that remains stuck inside the block will be 23.7 m/sec and it takes 12.07 seconds to stop.
<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>
According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.
Apply the law of conservation of momentum principle;
m₁v₁+m₂v₂cosΘ =(m₁+m₂)V
3 kg × 12 m/s + 0,1 kg × 400 m/s cos 20° = (3+0.1)V
36 + 40 cos 20° = 3.1 V
V=23.7 m/sec
The time it takes to stop when the friction coefficient between the block and the surface is 0.2 is found as;
V = u +at
V = 0+ μgt
23..7=0.2× 9.81 ×t
t=12.07 sec
Hence, it takes 12.07 seconds to stop.
