Answer:

Its c

A pressurized water reactor does not boil the water!

Explanation:

  • There are different type of nuclear power plants, that are used to generate electricity other than the water ,wind and solar electricity generation.
  • The nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel that heat the water and the steam generated runs the turbine
  • The most common type of nuclear power reactors are :-

The pressurized water reactor

  • It heats boils the water to ane extreme temprature but it doesnt boil it that water due to the great amount of pressure it is under  

The boiling water reactor

  • the nuclear fission reaction of uranium generates great amount of enegery that is absorbed by the water and it starts to boil , the steam generated runs the turbines

Radiometric dating ______.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:Radiometric dating allows us to indirectly date fossils up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata. The correct option is D.

Explanation:

Radiometric dating was first used by geologist after being published by Bertram Bollywood in 1907. During volcanic eruption, some minerals ( carbon) are trapped within the volcanic strata. These minerals are made up of radioactive isotopes which are unstable as they form decay products with a known constant rate of decay. This enables them to :

- access information about the absolute age of rocks,

- date a wide range of natural and man-made materials

- know even the age of earth. I hope this helps. Thanks

Impression materials that have mechanical properties permitting considerable elastic deformation but that return to their origin
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Elastomeric

Explanation:

An elastomer is a polymer whose main characteristic is elasticity and can even recover its shape after being deformed

The chemical composition of an elastomer is the grouping of thousands of molecules called monomers, which join together forming huge chains. These large chains of polymers are those that give elasticity since they are flexible and are intertwined in a very messy way.

When an elastomer is stretched, its molecules align, allowing many times to take a crystalline appearance. However, upon releasing the tension, it immediately returns to its original state of elastic disorder. The above distinguishes elastomers from plastic polymers.
