Answer:

B. Nuclear fusion generates less radioactive waste than nuclear fission.

Explanation:

There are basically two types of nuclear reaction nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fission one molecule breaks into two atoms and generate enormous energy and in nuclear fusion two atoms combined and form a molecule. In nuclear fusion energy released is more than nuclear fission. And waste is generated more in case of nuclear fission.

The correct option is B.
Nuclear fission and fusion are two different types of nuclear reactions, through which energy may be obtained. Nuclear fission involves the splitting of a molecule into two different part in order to generate energy while nuclear fusion reaction involves the joining together of two elements in other to form one product. Nuclear fission generate much radioactive waste than nuclear fusion. The radioactive waste that is obtainable during nuclear fusion is less than 1% of that produce by nuclear fission.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$ .

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects of masses $m_{1}, m_{2}$ kept at a distance r is given by the formula

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here , $m_{1}$ = 2m

$m_{2}$ = $\frac{m}{2}$

Thus , F = $\frac{-G.2m.\frac{m}{2} }{r^{2} }$

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$ .

Please help with science! Describe the magnetic field in the vicinity of a bar magnet.

Katen [24]

The magnetic field is described mathematically as a vector field<span>. This vector field can be plotted directly as a set of many vectors drawn on a grid. Each vector points in the direction that a compass would point and has length dependent on the strength of the magnetic force. </span>

Jack and Jill have made up since the previous HW assignment, and are now playing on a 10 meter seesaw. Jill is sitting on one en

Airida [17]

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.

How do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate?

Wittaler [7]

Sky diving involves free fall under gravity along with the drag due to air molecules pushing against the body slowing the rate of fall of a body. This is actually a significant amount of force. The drag force depends on the contact surface area and weight of the body. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position. This is because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. Since no two persons have identical body shape and weight, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.
