Answer:

Explanation: The two main types of nuclear power are nuclear fusion and fission. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants to create elements. Nuclear fission works by having a stray neutron collide with a nucleus. When this happens, it breaks the nucleus up, and another nuclei collides with another nucleus. A chain reaction occurs as this process continues. I personally think this type of nuclear power is dangerous because the result is radioactive byproducts. Also, meltdowns can occur in a nuclear power plant as a result of nuclear fission. I think nuclear fusion would be a much safer energy source. It is cheap and practically unlimited. Nuclear fusion occurs when two nuclei fuse together to create a larger nucleus. Nuclear fusion also proves Albert Einstein's equation E=mc2. The element you start out with is greater than the element you end up with after fusion occurs. This is due to some of the matter actually being converted into energy, which agrees with Einstein's equation. I think nuclear fusion is a safer energy source because it does not create radioactive byproducts that can be potentially harmful. Nuclear fusion, however, is not understood that well by scientists. As a result, we continue to use nuclear fission because we know how to use it. Until scientists fully understand nuclear fusion, scientists will continue to use nuclear fission for energy sources.

A runner moves 2.88 m/s north. She accelerates at 0.350 m/s^2 at a -52.0 angle. At the point in the motion where she is running

MrRissso [65]

The runner has initial velocity vector

$\vec v_0=\left(2.88\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\jmath$

and acceleration vector

$\vec a=\left(0.350\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(\cos(-52.0^\circ)\,\vec\imath+\sin(-52.0^\circ)\,\vec\jmath)$

so that her velocity at time $t$ is

$\vec v=\vec v_0+\vec at$

She runs directly east when the vertical component of $\vec v$ is 0:

$2.88\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(0.350\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin(-52.0^\circ)\,t=0\implies t=10.4\,\rm s$

It's not clear what you're supposed to find at this particular time... possibly her position vector? In that case, assuming she starts at the origin, her position at time $t$ would be

$\vec x=\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2$
