Over the last several decades, scientists have addressed the problem of nonrenewable natural resources such as fossil fuels. Hum

ans are using fossil fuels at a rapid rate and scientists believe that one day we will run out of them. To solve this problem, research has been conducted on alternative energy sources. One alternative energy source is nuclear energy. Although nuclear energy is a good solution to this problem, there are concerns.
Which of these is NOT a benefit of nuclear energy?


A) fossils fuels are not required
B) does not contribute to global warming
C) presence of hazardous radioactive materials
Eliminate
D) little carbon emissions released into the air

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The nuclear energy is defined as a type of energy which liberates either by the process of nuclear fusion or nuclear fission and is mainly used to generate electricity. This energy is stored in the core of an atom (or nucleus).

It is highly effective, cost-effective and there is no emission of greenhouse gases.

But it also has some disadvantages, of which one is that it produces radioactive waste materials, which are difficult to dispose these substances and is also a very expensive method. These materials emit radiations that are harmful to the organisms. So, it is very challenging to dispose these radioactive waste materials.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Vector A has magnitude of 15.0 m/s and is 75° counter-clockwise up from the x-axis. What are the x- and y-components of the vect
LiRa [457]

Answer:

x component 3.88 y- component 14.488

Explanation:

We have given a vector A which has a magnitude of 15 m/sec which is at 75° counter-clock wise ( anti-clock wise) from x -axis which is clearly shown in bellow figure

Now x-component will be 15 cos75°=3.8822 ( as it makes an angle of 75° with x-axis )

y- component will be 15 sin 75°=14.488

For verification the resultant of x and y component should be equal to 15

So resultant =\sqrt{14.488^2+3.88^2}=15

Answer:

a. Final velocity, V = 2.179 m/s.  

b. Final velocity, V = 7.071 m/s.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Acceleration = 0.500m/s²

a. To find the velocity of the boat after it has traveled 4.75 m

Since it started from rest, initial velocity is equal to 0m/s.

Now, we would use the third equation of motion to find the final velocity.

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS

Where;

  • V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.
  • S represents the displacement measured in meters.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*0.500*4.75

V^{2} = 4.75

Taking the square root, we have;

V^{2} = \sqrt {4.75}

<em>Final velocity, V = 2.179 m/s.</em>

b. To find the velocity if the boat has traveled 50 m.

V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*0.500*50

V^{2} = 50

Taking the square root, we have;

V^{2} = \sqrt {50}

<em>Final velocity, V = 7.071 m/s.</em>

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti
liq [111]

Answer:

The speed of water must be expelled at 6.06 m/s

Explanation:

Neglecting any drag effects of the surrounding water we can assume the linear momentum in this case is conserves, that is, the total initial momentum of the octopus and the water kept in it cavity should be equal to the total final linear momentum. That's known as conservation of momentum, mathematically expressed as:

p_f=p_i

with Pi the total initial momentum and Pf the final total momentum. The total momentum is the sum of the momentums of the individual objects, in our case the octopus and the mass of water that will be expelled:

p_{of}+p_{wf}=p_{oi}+p_{wi}

with Po the momentum of the octopus and Pw the momentum of expelled water. Linear momentum is defined as mass times velocity:

m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=m_o*v_{oi}+m_w*v_{wi}

Note that initially the octopus has the water in its cavity and both are at rest before it sees the predator so v_{oi}=v_{wi} = 0\frac{m}{s}:

m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=0

We should find the final velocity of water if the final velocity of the octopus is 2.70 m/s, solving for v_{wf}:

v_{wf}=-\frac{m_o*v_{of}}{m_w}=-\frac{(6.00-1.85)*(2.70)}{1.85}

v_{wf}=-6.06\frac{m}{s}

The minus sign indicates the velocity of the water is opposite the velocity of the octopus.
