Describe the benefits and risks associated with nuclear energy.
Ulleksa [173]

Producing nuclear energy is far more environmentally friendly than burning fossil fuels. That is the main benefit.

The main risk is radiation. If the nuclear waste is not properly disposed of, it can leak radiation into the environment. Fortunately, this is not an issue since there are ways to deal with it. There is also the risk of a disaster like the Chernobyl incident, however that was mostly due to faulty reactor construction. However, reactors today are built to avoid such issues.

2. A 15 kg mass fastened to the end of a steel wire of un-
Flauer [41]

Explanation:

Elongation of the wire is:

ΔL = F L₀ / (E A)

where F is the force,

L₀ is the initial length,

E is Young's modulus,

and A is the cross sectional area.

ΔL = T (0.5 m) / ((2.0×10¹¹ Pa) (0.02 cm²) (1 m / 100 cm)²)

ΔL = T (1.25×10⁻⁶ m/N)

T = (80,000 N/m) ΔL

Draw a free body diagram of the mass at the bottom of the circle.  There are two forces: tension force T pulling up and weight force mg pulling down.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

T − mg = mv²/r

T − mg = mω²r

T − (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = (15 kg) (2 rev/s × 2π rad/rev)² (0.5 m + ΔL)

T − 147 N = (2368.7 N/m) (0.5 m + ΔL)

Substitute:

(80,000 N/m) ΔL − 147 N = (2368.7 N/m) (0.5 m + ΔL)

(80,000 N/m) ΔL − 147 N = 1184.35 N + (2368.7 N/m) ΔL

(797631.3 N/m) ΔL = 1331.35 N

ΔL = 0.00167 m

ΔL = 1.67 mm

EMERGENCY!! Doing my Physics homework now and I need help on this one please - all information provided, I'd be very VERY gratef
IrinaK [193]

(a) The vertical motion is accelerated by gravity. The horizontal component is constant (neglecting air resistance, if this is not a projectile motion, the horizontal component would also be accelerated)

(b) Vertical:

v_y = 30\sin 40^\circ = 19.3\frac{m}{s}

Horizontal:

v_x = 30\frac{m}{s}\cos 40^\circ = 23.0 \frac{m}{s}

(c) Use the kinematic equation for distance. Calculate only the vertical component (horizontal is irrelevant):

s_y = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2 +vt\,,\,\,\,s_y=0\\0 = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2 +vt\\\frac{1}{2}gt =v\\t = \frac{2v}{g}= \frac{2\cdot30\sin 40^\circ\frac{m}{s}}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}=3.9s

The ball will be in the air for about 3.9 s.

(d) The range is the horizontal distance traveled. We know the ball is in the air for 3.9s and it moves with a horizontal velocity of 23 m/s. So:

s_x = 23\frac{m}{s}\cdot 3.9 s = 89.7m

The range is 89.7 meters.
