In a bwr or pwr, steam is generated with a temperature of about 290 °c. if river water used to receive waste heat has a temperat

ure of 20 °c, what is the maximum possible (ideal) conversion efficiency of the reactor's thermal energy into electrical energy? nuclear power plants typically have conversion efficiencies of 34%. why is this efficiency less than the ideal efficiency?

True or false? A protostellar cloud spins faster as it contracts
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

No. The protostellar cloud spins faster in the collapsing stage (stage 1) and becomes much slower in the contraction stage (stage 2)

Explanation:

Once the cloud is so dense that the heat which is being produced in its center cannot easily escape, pressure rapidly rises, and catches up with the weight, or whatever external force is causing the cloud to collapse, and the cloud becomes stable, as a protostellar cloud.

The protostellar cloud will become more dense over thousands of years. This stage of decreasing size is known as a contraction, rather than a collapse. In the contraction stage the cloud has become much slower, and because weight and pressure are more or less in balance. In the first stage of formation, the decrease of size is very rapid, and compressive forces completely overwhelm the pressure of the gas, and we say that the cloud is collapsing.
