Answer:

 P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Explanation:

given,

efficiency of the power plant = 32%

Power produced by the nuclear fission = 0.18 MW

the power plant output = ?

using formula of efficiency

\eta = \dfrac{P_0}{P}

where P is the power produced in the power plant

          P₀ is the power output of the power plant

\eta = \dfrac{P_0}{P}

0.32 = \dfrac{P_0}{0.18}

 P₀ = 0.18 x 0.32

 P₀ =  0.0576 MW

 P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Power plant output is equal to  P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Some hydrogen gas is enclosed within a chamber being held at 200^\ { C} with a volume of 0.025 \rm m^3. The chamber is fitted wi
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The final volume is 0.039 m^3

Explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

Initial temperature: T1=200C

Final temperature: T2=200C

Initial pressure: P1=1.50 \times10^6 Pa

Final pressure: P2=0.950 \times10^6 Pa

Initial volume: V1=0.025m^{3}

Final volume: V2=?

Assuming hydrogen gas as a perfect gas it satisfies the perfect gas equation:

\frac{PV}{T}=nR (1)

With P the pressure, V the volume, T the temperature, R the perfect gas constant and n the number of moles. If no gas escapes the number of moles of the gas remain constant so the right side of equation (1) is a constant, that allows to equate:

\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Subscript 2 referring to final state and 1 to initial state.

solving for V2:

V_{2}=\frac{P_{1}V_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}P_{2}}=\frac{(1.50 \times10^6)(0.025)(200)}{(200)(0.950 \times10^6)}

V_{2}=0.039 m^3

What is the substance through which sound travels?
Ann [662]

Answer:

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly.

The match making one is Radiation is i think B and Convection i think is C and Conduction i think is A.  I think 1 is radiation. Because radiation is transferred between objects or an empty space. Number 2 i think is conduction Because conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between to objects touching. Number 3 i also i think is radiation because radiation transfers between objects. Number 4 i also think is conduction because the spoon was touching a hot pot that was on the stove so then the thermal energy was transferred between the two objects touching. number 5 I think is convection because convection is the transfer of energy by the movement of a fluid, such as air or water. Number 6 i think is radiation because the snake is not touching the lamp and radiation goes all across spaces. Number 7 i think is convection because convection is the movement of a fluid, such as air or water. Hope this helps sorry its so long :)
