Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a nuclear power plants ends its operating life, it is necessary to dispose correctly all the radioactive material left from the operations of the power plant.

In fact, apart from the fuel rods (which contain the uranium that is the fuel of the nuclear reactions), other materials of the core (such as the vessel) becomes radioactive due to the prolonged exposure to the products of nuclear reactions in the core.

As a result, all these materials remain radioactive for very long time (hundreds or thousands of years). It is therefore important to dispose them correctly, in proper sealed containers which are able to shield the radiation emitted by these radioactive element (alpha, beta and gamma radiation).

Therefore, "waste from nuclear power plants must be disposed of in radioactively shielded storage containers" is a correct statement.

A coin is placed on a vinyl stereo record that is making 33 1/3 revolutions per minute on a turntable. (a) In what direction is
mamaluj [8]

Answer: a) The acceletarion is directed to the center on the turntable. b) 5 cm; ac= 0.59 m/s^2; 10 cm, ac=1.20 m/s^2; 14 cm, ac=1.66 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider teh expression of the centripetal accelartion for a circular movement, which is given by:

ac=ω^2*r where ω and r are the angular speed and teh radios of the circular movement.

w=2*π*f

We know that the turntable is set to 33  1/3 rev/m so

the frequency 33.33/60=0.55 Hz

then w=2*π*0.55=3.45 rad/s

Finally the centripetal acceleration at differents radii results equal:

r= 0.05 m  ac=3.45^2*0.05=0.50 m/s^2

r=0.1  ac=3.45^2*0.1=1.20 m/s^2

r=0.14 ac=3.45^2*0.14=1.66 m/s^2

Is (2, 2) a solution of y &lt; 4x-6<br> Help
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

B) No.

Explanation:

Okay,so,

this is equation is y=mx +b

mx represents the slope

and b represents the y-intercept

in order to figure this out you need to plot the y-intercept first

that makes its (0,-6) because the 6 is negative in the equation

4x is also equal to 4/1 since we dont know what x is

we have to do rise over run for this

you go up 4 spots on the y intercept from -6 because 4 is positive

then you go to the right 1 time because 1 is positive.

this leaves you at (1,-2)

so, (2,2) is NOT a solution
