One speed skater starts across a frozen lake at an average speed of 8 m/s. Ten seconds later, a second speed skater starts from
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

40 s

Explanation:

After 10 seconds, the first skater would have a 8m/s * 10s = 80 m head start

Let t be the number of seconds after the second skater starts will the second skater overtake the first skater

The distance traveled by the first skater after t seconds is

s_1 = v_1t = 8t

Similarly the distance traveled by the 2nd skater after t seconds is

s_2 = v_2t = 10t

Since the 2nd skater catches up to the 1st one after 80 m behind, the distance traveled by the 2nd one must be 80m greater than the distance of the 1st skater

s_2 = s_1 + 80

We can substitute s_1 = 8t, s_2 = 10t

10t = 8t + 80

2t = 80

t = 80 / 2 = 40 s

Nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. Is this process endothermic or exothermic?
Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.

Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.

Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.

As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.

Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.
