True

The control rods are lowered after a certain stage in a nuclear reactor, to absorb the neutrons , which reduces the number of reactions taking place in the reactor. As the number of reactions gets reduced, less amount of heat energy is produced and in case is the entire control rod is inserted in the core of reactor, the reactor completely shuts down

If you were to separate all of the electrons and protons in 1.00 g (0.001 kg) of matter, you’d have about 96,000 C of positive c
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The attractive force between them is 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

Explanation:

Given:

Charge q = 96000 C

Distance between two charges r = 8 m

According to the coulomb's law,

    F = \frac{kq^{2} }{r^{2} }

Where k = 9 \times 10^{9} = force constant.

   F = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times (96000)^{2}  }{8^{2} }

   F = 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

Therefore, the attractive force between them is 1.296 \times 10^{18} N

What is uniforlmly acelerated motion and uniform motion​
steposvetlana [31]

Uniformly Accelerated motion : When a body moves along a straight line and its velocity increases by equal amounts in equal interval of time then the motion is called uniformly accelerated motion. E.g.:- Motion of a freely falling body.

Uniform Motion : When a body covers equal distances in a straight line, equal intervals of time are called uniform motion. Example: a car moving at 20km/h in a straight line. When a body covers unequal distance in equal intervals of time in a straight line is called non-uniform Example : spinning wheel.

<h3>Difference About Uniformly Accelerated motion And Uniform Motion</h3>

In Uniform Velocity Motion a body will be moving with a constant /unchanging velocity moving in a particular direction and thus acceleration will be zero whereas in Uniform accelerated motion a body will move at constant acceleration and its velocity will keep changing with time at a constant/ steady rate.

What would be the effect of adding a proton to a nucleus?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The electrostatic force and strong nuclear force are opposite forces. The electrostatic force causes the repulsion beteween the positively charged protons in the nucleus but the strong force keeps the nucleus glued together but overcoming the electrostatic force. They would both increase upon the addition of a proton or radioactivity will result.

An astronaut on a strange new planet finds that she can jump up to a height of 72 m before she would fall back down to the surfa
gregori [183]

Answer:

25m/s²

Explanation:

Using one of the equations of motion.

v² = u²+2as where

v is the final velocity of the astronaut

u is his initial velocity

a = -g (the acceleration will be acceleration due to gravity since he is acting under the influence of gravity. The value is negative because the astronaut jumps up to a particular height)

s = H = total height covered

The equation will then become;

v² = u²-2gH

Given

u = 60m/s

v = 0m/s

g = ?

H = 72m

Substituting the given value into the equation;

0² = 60²-2g(72)

0 = 3600-144g

-3600 = -144g

g = -3600/-144

g = 25m/s²

The magnitude of his acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 25m/s²
