What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?
MrRa [10]

Question:

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?

Answer:

Disadvantages of Nuclear Power

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.

A student at a window on the second floor of a dorm sees her physics professor walking on the sidewalk beside the building. she
klasskru [66]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

In order for the balloon to strike the professor's head, th balloon should drop by 18 - 1.7 = 16.3 m in the time at the professor takes to walk 1 m.
The time for the professor to walk 1 m is
t = (1 m)/(0.45 m/s) = 2.2222 s

The initial vertical velocity of the balloon is zero.
The vertical drop of the balloon in 2.2222 s is
h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.2222 s)² = 24.197 m

Because 24.97 > 16.3, the balloon lands in front of the professor, and does not hit the professor.

The time for the balloon to hit the ground is
(1/2)*(9.8)*t² = 18
t = 1.9166 s

The time difference is 2.2222 - 1.9166 = 0.3056 s
Within this time interval, the professor travels 0.45*0.3056 = 0.175 m
Therefore the balloon falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.

Answer: 
The balloon misses the professor, and falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters

5. How are humans affecting global climate change?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Due to the generation of carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Climate change occurs due to global warming generated by greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide is the gas that does not leave or allow solar radiation from the sun to rise from the Earth's surface, increasing the average temperature of the planet.

Burning fossil fuels for energy generation such as coal is another source of carbon dioxide generation. The generation of energy should be directed towards the production of renewable energies, using sources such as solar and wind energy.
