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.

(100 pts)<br>Why can't you use distance divide by time to calculate the instantaneous<br>speed?​
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Instantaneous speed means speed at any instant

that means Speed is changing with time

You know speed is distance/time

So that means distance is also changing with time

So we take infinitesimal small distance per infinitesimal small time As we assume speed is constant in infinitesimal small time dt

So, we take speed = ds/dt

ds = infinitesimal small distance

dt = infinitesimal small time

As its ratio is equal to speed at any instant

Note : We are taking infinitesimal small distance

But :) we are taking infinitesimal small time also

As you know if denominator is small fraction is large So fraction always give large value

So it's not O ( this makes confuse to most of students)

So, thanks

Good question

Keep thinking like this :)
