Answer: Pros and cons okay

Explanation:

Pros: Produces no polluting gases. Waste is radioactive and safe disposal is very difficult and expensive.

Does not contribute to global warming.

Cons: Waste is radioactive and safe disposal is very difficult and expensive.

Local thermal pollution from wastewater affects marine life.

Which requires more work, lifting a 10.0kg load a vertical distance of 2m or lifting a 5.0kg load a distance of 4m?

Minchanka [31]

For each load, Work = (mass) x (gravity) x (distance .

Bigger load: Work = (10 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (2 m) = 196 joules .

Smaller load: Work = (5 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (4 m) = 196 joules.

The work required is equal in both cases.

The mass ratio of 2:1 is exactly balanced by
the height ratio of 1:2 .

Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

De broglie wavelength, $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}$ , where h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass and v is the velocity.

$h = 6.63*10^{-34}$

Mass of hydrogen atom, $m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg$

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

Wavelength $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m$

$1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm$

So the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

car 2 has a mass of 150 kg and moves westward towards car 3 at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. car 3 has a mass of 265 kg and moves eastw

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The force of car 3 on car 2 ≈ 1810.82 N

Explanation:

The equation for the change in momentum of the two cars are;

Conservation of linear momentum

150( 2.2 - v) = 265(1.5-v)

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = (150+265)v

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = -67.5 = 415×v

∴ v = -67.5/415 = -0.1627 m/s West = 0.1627 m/s East

The impulse of the net force is the amount of momentum change experienced given by the equation;

Impulse force = $m \times v_f$ - $m \times v_0$

Where;

$v_f$ = The final velocity

$v_0$ = The initial velocity

For the the 265 kg mass, we have;

$v_f$ = 0.1627 m/s

$v_0$ = 1.5 m/s

Which gives the impulse a s F×Δt = 265×0.1627 - 265×1.5 = -354.38 kg·m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the collision = 1/2×265×(0.1627^2 - 1.5^2) =-294.62 J

Whereby the distance moved in one second is 0.1627 m, we have;

Work done = Force × Distance = Force × 0.1627 = 294.62

Force = 294.62/0.1627 = 1810.82 N.

The Carson family's pancake recipe uses 2 teaspoons of baking powder for every 1/3 of a teaspoon of salt. How much baking powder

melomori [17]

Answer:

6 teaspoons of baking powder required.

Explanation:

Given that

According to the recipe of pancake,

For every $\frac{1}{3}$ teaspoon of salt, 2 teaspoons of baking baking powder is required.

To find:

How much baking powder will be needed, if 1 teaspoon of salt was used ?

Solution:

This problem can be solved using ratio.

$\frac{1}3$ teaspoon of salt : 2 teaspoons of baking powder

Let us multiply the above ratio with 3.

$\frac{1}{3}\times 3$ teaspoon of salt : 2 $\times$ 3 teaspoons of baking powder

1 teaspoon of salt : 6 teaspoons of baking powder

So, answer is 6 teaspoons of baking powder required.

Also, we can use the unitary method:

$\frac{1}3$ teaspoon of salt needs = 2 teaspoons of baking powder

1 teaspoon of salt needs = $\frac{2}{\frac{1}3}$ teaspoons of baking powder

1 teaspoon of salt needs = 2 $\times$ 3 = 6 teaspoons of baking powder needed

So, the answer is:

6 teaspoons of baking powder required.
