Answer:

Energy produce in one year =20.49 x 10¹⁶ J/year

Explanation:

Given that

Plant produce 6.50 × 10⁸ J/s of energy.

It produce  6.50 × 10⁸ J in 1 s.

We know that

1 year = 365 days

1 days = 24 hr

1 hr = 3600 s

1 year = 365 x 24 x 3600 s

1 year = 31536000 s

So energy produce in 1 year = 31536000 x  6.50 × 10⁸ J/year

          Energy produce in one year = 204984 x 10¹² J/year

          Energy produce in one year =20.49 x 10¹⁶ J/year

Answer:

hello your question lacks the required image attached to this answer is the image required

answer :  NOR1(q_) wave is complementary to NOR2(q)

Explanation:

Note ; NOR 2 will be addressed as q in the course of this solution while NOR 1 will be addressed as q_

Initial state is unknown i.e q = 0 and q_= 1

from the diagram the waveform reset and set

= from 0ns to 20ns reset=1 and set=0.from the truth table considering this given condition q=0 and q_bar=1 while  

from 30ns to 50ns reset=0 and set=1.from the truth table considering this condition q=1 and q_bar=1.so from 35ns also note there is a delay of 5 ns for the NOR gate hence the NOR 2 will be higher ( 1 )

From 50ns to 65ns both set and reset is 0.so NOR2(q)=0.

From 65 to 75 set=1 and reset=0,so our NOR 2(q)=1 checking from the truth table

also  from 75 to 90 set=1 and reset=1 , NOR2(q) is undefined "?" and is mentioned up to 95ns.

since q_ is a complement of q, then NOR1(q_) wave is complementary to NOR2(q)

What is the difference Plastic vs elastic deformation.
Reika [66]

Answer:

What is the difference Plastic vs elastic deformation

Explanation:

The elastic deformation occurs when a low stress is apply over a metal or metal structure, in this process, the stress' deformation is temporary and it's recover after the stress is removed. In other words, this DOES NOT affects the atoms separation.

The plastic deformation occurs when the stress apply over the metal or metal structure is sufficient to deform the atomic structure making the atoms split, this is a crystal separation on a limited amount of atoms' bonds.

How does java achieve portable
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Java is called portable because you can compile a java code which will spew out a byte-code, and then you run that code with Java Virtual Machine. Java Virtual Machine is like an interpreter, which reads the compiled byte-code and runs it. So first of all, you need to install the JVM on the system you want.

- Viscoelastic stress relaxation
My name is Ann [436]

Explanation:

The correct answers to the fill in the blanks would be;

1. Viscoelastic stress relaxation refers to scenarios for which the stress applied to a polymer must decay over time in order to maintain a constant strain. Otherwise, over time, the polymer chains will slip and slide past one another in response to a constant applied load and the strain will increase (in magnitude).

2. Viscoelastic creep refers to scenarios for which a polymer will permanently flow over time in response a constant applied stress.

The polymer whose properties have been mentioned above is commonly known as Kevlar.

It is mostly used in high-strength fabrics and its properties are because of several hydrogen bonds between polymer molecules.
