For pressurized water reactors the coolant is not permitted to boil in the core of the PRW, however the coolant in boiling water reactors is permitted to do so in the core of BWR. Pressurized water reactors have an indirect cycle. Whereas, the boiling water reactors go through a direct cycle. Both are light water reactors.

Explanation:

The main difference between the pressurized water reactors and boiling water reactors is in the process of generation of steam. A boiling water reactor uses a single water circuit to produce steam directly while a pressurized  water reactor produces steam indirectly using two water circuits. In a boiling water reactor steam is directly produced by boiling the water coolant while in pressurized reactor the heat from the reactor core is used.

The wheels of a wagon can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop, of radius ????h=0.209 m and mass 4.32 kg , an
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

r= 98.3 mm

Explanation:

For rim

R= 0.209 m

M= 4.32 kg

For rods

m= 7.37 kg

L= 2 R= 2 x 0.209 = 0.418 m

The Total moment of inertia of the  wagon

I=MR²+2 x 1/12 m L²

Now by putting the values

I=4.32\times 0.209^2+2\times \dfrac{1}{12}\times 7.73\times 0.418^2\ kg.m^2

I=0.413 kg.m²

For disk:

t= 0.0462 m

Density ρ = 5990 kg/m³

Lets take r is the radius of disk

So the mass of the disc

m'=ρ πr² t

The moment of inertia of disc

I'=1/2 m'r²

I'=1/2 x r² x ρ πr² t

Given that

I = I'

1/2 x r² x ρ πr² t = 0.413 kg.m²

1/2 x r³ x ρ π t = 0.413

r³ x ρ π t = 0.826

r^3=\dfrac{0.826}{\pi \times 5990 \times 0.0462}

r³=0.00095

r=0.0983 m

r= 98.3 mm

What does Newton's 2nd Law explain?
kow [346]

Answer:

C. Why you must push harder to move a car farther.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{mass}

Hence, Newton's 2nd Law explains why you must push harder to move a car farther because of its mass. Thus, it is important to increase the force that the engine provides and decrease the mass of the car.

Starting at t = 0 s , a horizontal net force F⃗ =( 0.285 N/s )ti^+(-0.460 N/s2 )t2j^ is applied to a box that has an initial mom
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that Impulse = force x time

impulse = change in momentum

change in momentum = force x time

Force F = .285 t -.46t²

Since force is variable

change in momentum = ∫ F dt  where F is force

= ∫ .285ti - .46t²j dt

= .285 t² / 2i - .46 t³ / 3 j

When t = 1.9

change in momentum = .285 x 1.9² /2 i  -  .46 x 1.9³ / 3 j

= .514i - 1.05 j

final momentum

= - 3.1 i + 3.9j +.514i - 1.05j

= - 2.586 i + 2.85j

x component = - 2.586

y component = 2.85
