Answer:

Answer A. Fission, steam, turbine, electricity, cool water

Explanation:

Nuclear Energy Production

Nuclear energy is produced by splitting uranium atoms in a process called fission. This generates heat and it's managed to produce steam, which later is used by a turbine generator to generate electricity. The heat must be taken out of the system, so a cooling process, usually involving water is the final step.

Because nuclear power plants don't burn fuel, they are known as clean energy sources.

4. Two people each have a mass of 55 kg. They are both in an

mestny [16]

Answer:

350 N

Explanation:

F=ma

$f = force \\ m = mass \\ a = acceleration$

$m = 2(55kg) + 240kg \\ a = 1.0 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }$

Force = 350 Newtons

A horse walks along a straight path. it travels 3 in one second, 4 m in the next second, and 5 m in the third second. describe t

Temka [501]

Answer: The horse is moving with a uniform acceleration

Explanation:

According to the described situation, we are dealing with a constant acceleration (also called uniform acceleration), since the horse's velocity is changingn by a constant rate.

Let's prove it:

Firstly we are told the horse follows a straight path. In addition we are given its velocity:

3 m/s, then 4 m/s and 5 m/s

Since acceleration $a$ is defined as the change of velocity in time we can calculate it:

$a\frac{4 m/s-3 m/s}{1 s}=1m/s^{2}$ This is the horse's constant acceleration

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 262 hz and a speed of 343 m/s

Tamiku [17]

Heya!!

For calculate wavelength, lets applicate formula:

$\boxed{\lambda = V/f}$

Δ Being Δ

f = Frequency = 262 Hz

v = Velocity = 343 m/s

$\lambda$ = Wavelenght = ?

⇒ Let's replace according the formula:

$\boxed{\lambda = 343\ m/s / 262\ Hz }$

⇒ Resolving

$\boxed{\lambda = 1,3 \ m}$

Result:

The wavelength is 1,3 meters.

Good Luck!!

(a) How can a driver steer a car traveling at constant speed so that the acceleration is zero? (Assume that the road is level. S

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Explanation:

(a) We know that the acceleration of the car is given by :

a = change in speed / time taken

If the speed of the car is constant in a straight line, the acceleration of the car is zero because there is no change in the speed of the car.

(b) For the driver steer a car traveling at constant speed so that the magnitude of the acceleration remains constant, the driver should drive the car in the circular path. This is because, in circular path the speed of an object remains the same while its velocity changes.
