A.
 
-> the products are stable atoms with a much lower atomic number. For example, Uranium 238 commonly breaks down into strontium and xenon, both of which are stable and non-radioactive.

They are also low in quantity because of the precision involved in breaking down a large atom via neutron capture means that few fission reactions take place.

Hope I helped :)

An ac generator with Em = 223 V and operating at 399 Hz causes oscillations in a series RLC circuit having R = 222 Ω, L = 147 mH
Doss [256]

Answer:

Xc= 17.267 Ω,   Z= 415.5 Ω,   I= 0.537 A

Explanation:

Em = 223 V

f= 300 Hz, R = 222 Ω, L = 147 mH,  C = 23.1 μF

a)

Capacitive reactance = Xc=?

Xc= \frac{1}{2\pi fC}

Xc=1/2pi *399*23.1*10^-6

Xc= 17.267 Ω

b).

Z=\sqrt{ R^2 + (Xl - Xc)^2}

Xl= 2π * f * L  

Xl= 2π * 399 * 147 * 10^{-3}

Xl= 368.5 Ω

Z=\sqrt{ R^2 + (Xl - Xc)^2} = \sqrt{222^2 + (368.5 - 17.267)^2}

Z= 415.5 Ω  

c).

Current:

I= V / Z= Em / Z

I= 223/415.5

I= 0.537 A

A car manufacturer wants to change its car’s design to increase the car’s acceleration. Which changes should the engineers consi
likoan [24]

Answer:

The car manufacturers could increase bore of the cylinders, place the engine in the center or back of the car, add 1 to 2 turbochargers, and lower the center of gravity of the vehicle to increase traction.

Explanation:

Turbochargers would be recommended because they significantly increase both the torque of the engine as well as the amount of horses powering the car while also increasing original efficiency both with and without the additional power. Weight adjustment allows for lightweight vehicles with good traction. This is important to both keep control of the car under acceleration, but it also makes the vehicle more efficient due to the now sheddable unnecessary weight. A more obvious approach would be to increase the base horsepower and torque of the engine by increasing the bore of the cylinders and the weight of the pistons. This acts as an inertial lever, because the extra piston weight will drag the crankshaft faster. This could also be achieved by taking away piston weight, but this could be catastrophic should a piston slip.
