Answer:

Therefore, The chain reaction used in nuclear power plants involves a free

neutron colliding with a uranium , forming more free neutrons and energy  .

Explanation:

A chain reaction refers to a process in which neutrons released in fission produce an additional fission in at least one further nucleus. This nucleus in turn produces neutrons, and the process repeats.

For example, 21/2 neutrons on the average are released by the fission of each uranium-235 nucleus that absorbs a low-energy neutron provide more neutrons and energy.

A 2.40 μC charge is subject to a 3.00 mN force due to an Electric Field. What is the magnitude of the Electric Field at the loca
Bezzdna [24]
<h2>Electric field at the location of the charge is 1250 N/C</h2>

Explanation:

Electric field is the ratio of force and charge.

Force, F = 3.00 mN = 3 x 10⁻³ N

Charge, q = 2.40 μC = 2.40 x 10⁻⁶ C

We have

                 E=\frac{F}{q}\\\\E=\frac{3\times 10^{-3}}{2.40\times 10^{-6}}\\\\E=1250N/C

Electric field at the location of the charge is 1250 N/C

apple newest ipad pro has a storage option of up to 128gb (gigabytes). how many bytes of storage will it have? use a conversion
vovikov84 [41]

Explanation:

Storage offered by iPad pro = 128 gb

1 gigabyte = 1000,000,000 bytes

1 gb = 1\times 10^{9} bytes

128 gb=128\times 10^9 bytes=128\times 10^9 bytes

Standard form = 128,000,000,000 bytes of storage

Scientific notation = 1.28\times 10^{11} \text{bytes of storage}

You considered the situation of moving a couch at a constant speed. You concluded that to move the couch at a constant speed, yo
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The couch will remain stationary

Explanation:

Friction is the force that resist/opposes the  motion. It is the force that has to e overcome before an object can move.

Since the frictional force of 50 N  is required before the couch can move, applying 25 N can not overcome the frictional force of 50 N, so the couch will remain stationary.A force greater than 50 will be require to set the couch in motion
