<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Provide the nuclear power plant with a plan to properly dispose of and recycle the wastes.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Nuclear power has been called a clean source of energy because the power plants do not release carbon dioxide or other green house gases.
  • However, <em><u>a nuclear power plant that dumps radioactive wastes into the sea, thus causing an increase in illness among people living along the coast, should be provided with means and plans of proper disposal and recycling of wastes.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Recycling and proper disposal of wastes is a key factor that should be considered by industries and plants that dispose waste to water sources as this would reduce the negative effects on the environment and also reduce the number of illnesses resulting from contamination of water sources.</u></em>

A bungee cord can stretch, but it is never compressed. When the distance between the two ends of the cord is less than its unstr
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

g=9.8m/s²

The spring constant is

k=50N/m

The length of the bungee cord is

Lo=32m

Height of bridge which one end of the bungee is tied is 91m

A steel ball of mass 92kg is attached to the other end of the bungee.

The potential energy(Us) of the steel ball before dropped from the bridge is given as

P.E= mgh

P.E= 92×9.8×91

P.E= 82045.6 J

Us= 82045.6 J

Potential energy)(Uc) of the cord is given as

Uc= ½ke²

Where 'e' is the extension

Then the extension is final height extended by cord minus height of cord

e=hf - hi

e=hf - 32

Uc= ½×50×(hf-32)²

Uc=25(hf-32)²

Using conservation of energy,

Then,

The potential energy of free fall equals the potential energy in string

Uc=Us

25(hf-32)²=82045.6

(hf-32)² = 82045.6/25

(hf-32)²=3281.825

Take square root of both sides

√(hf-32)²=√(3281.825)

hf-32=57.29

hf=57.29+32

hf=89.29m

We neglect the negative sign of the root because the string cannot compressed

A compact car, mass 660 kg, is moving at 1.00 ✕ 102 km/h toward the east. The driver of the compact car suddenly applies the bra
Maslowich

Answer:59.43\times 10^3 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of car m=660 kg

Initial velocity of car =102 km/h\approx 28.33 m/s towards east

Time taken to stop t=2.1 s

Force exerted F_{avg}=4.8\times 10^3 N

change in momentum is given  by impulse imparted to the car

Impulse(J)=-F\cdot t

J=-4.8\times 10^3\times 2.1

J=-59.49\times 10^3 kg-m/s

negative Sign indicates that impulse is imparted opposite to the direction of motion

magnitude of momentum J=59.49\times 10^3

olga2289 [7]

Use the kinematic equation: Vf=Vi+at

Then plug;

Vi=14 m/s

a=5 m/s²

t=20 s. Therefore;

Vf=14+(5*20)

Vf=114 m/s.

What is the mass of an atom that has 2 protons, 3 neutrons, and 2 electrons
marusya05 [52]
You can find the mass of an atom by adding the number of protons and neutrons. In this case the atom has 2 protons and 3 neutrons so the mass is 5.
