In Iran, Uranium is being enriched using centrifuges. In the 1940’s and 1950’s USA Uranium was enriched using mass spectrometry.

Why did the Iranians choose not to use mass spectrometry?

<span>This is due to the low cost, in energy, of enrichment per unit <span> of uranium. It's cheaper to use centrifugal isotope separation than the use of mass spectrometry. However, mass spectrometry produces highly enriched uranium compared to centrifugal. Additionally, mass spectrometry requires a less mass of natural uranium (NU) to produce the desired enriched uranium. </span></span>

What is the difference between mutual flux, leakage flux and magnetizing flux<br> ​
Lemur [1.5K]

In simple words, flux can be stated as the rate of flow of a fluid, radiant energy, or particles across a given area.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Mutual Flux:</u>

  • The magnetic lines present in among two magnets or solenoid is mutual flux.
  • These are the lines in which the attraction and repulsion happens.
  • The SI unit of mutual flux is the Henry

<u>Leakage Flux:</u>

  • In simple words, it can be stated as  the magnetic flux which does not follow the specially designed way in a magnetic circuit.
  • Leakage flux in the induction motor takes spot due to current runs through the essence of the induction motor.
  • The SI unit of Leakage flux is the Weber

<u>Magnetizing flux</u>

  • Magnetic flux is an analysis of the entire magnetic field which moves in a given field
  • In simple words can be defined as the Magnetic flux is what generates the field around a magnetic material.
  • The SI unit of magnetic flux is the Weber

Find the radius Rrigel of the star Rigel, the bright blue star in the constellation Orion that radiates energy at a rate of 2.7×
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

r = 1.61 x 10^{11} m

Explanation:

energy radiated (H) = 2.7 x 10^31 W

surface temperature (T)  = 11,000 k

assuming ε = 1 and taking σ = 5.67 x 10^{-8} W/m^{2}.K^{4}

we can find the radius of the star from the equation below

H = A x  ε x σ x T^{4}              

where area (A) = 4 x π x r^{2} (assuming it is a sphere)

therefore  the equation becomes

H = 4 x π x r^{2} x  ε x σ x T^{4}  

2.7 x 10^31  = 4 x π x r^{2} x  1 x 5.67 x 10^{-8}  x (11,000)^{4}

r = \sqrt{\frac{2.7 x 10^31}{4 x π x 1 x 5.67 x 10^{-8}  x (11,000)^{4}} }

r = 1.61 x 10^{11} m

The concept of energy can be calculated in multiple ways. Which units are used for energy? Check all that apply. joules kilogram
MrMuchimi

Answer:

W = F * S    = Newtons * Distance = Joules (definition)

Joules and KiloJoules are obviously methods of describing energy

F = M a = kg * m / s^2       definition of force

F * S = kg * m^2 / s^2     also describes work

A cloud is drifting across the sky at a constant velocity of 724metersperminute to the east. It is at an altitude of 9,200 meter
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The cloud moves 9050 meters to the east in 12.5 minutes.

Explanation:

Let suppose that mass of the cloud is negligible. meaning that effects of gravity are negligible and that altitude of the cloud remains constant. If the cloud drifts at constant velocity, travelled distance is defined by following formula:

\Delta s = v\cdot \Delta t (1)

Where:

v - Velocity, in meters per second.

\Delta t - Time, in seconds.

If we know that v = 724\,\frac{m}{min} and \Delta t = 12.5\,min, then the travelled distance after 12.5 minutes is:

\Delta s = 9050\,m

The cloud moves 9050 meters to the east in 12.5 minutes.
