Answer:

“A mountain of uranium” is an indefinable amount of uranium. If it means uranium ore as found in nature, then the concentration of uranium is orders of magnitude too low for any type of reaction.

Your mountain is almost entirely U238 which cannot be used in an atomic bomb. The reason is that it will not sustain a chain reaction, which depends on neutrons released in fission events to induce further fission events in an exponentionally increasing amount.

5) A person holds a 1.7 kg bucket and lets it move down at
Elena L [17]

Answer:

12.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of bucket  = 1.7kg

Height  = 75cm  = 0.75m

Unknown;

Work done on the bucket by the person  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the work done equation;

  Work done  = force x distance  = mgh

 m is the mass  

  g is the acceleration due to gravity

  h is the height

Now, insert parameters and solve ;

     Work done  = 1.7 x 9.8 x 0.75  = 12.5J

The energy that generates wind comes from what source?
Rudiy27

Answer:

we can say that wind energy is due to

D) Severe thunderstorms

Explanation:

As we know that wind energy is converted into kinetic energy of wind mills

This kinetic energy of wind mill is then converted into electrical energy using turbine

now we can consider here  energy conservation theory that energy is only converted from one form to other form

it neither be destroyed nor be created but it can transfer from one form to other form

So here we can say that wind energy is due to

D) Severe thunderstorms

A student obtained a clean dry glass-stoppered flask. she weighed the flask and stopper on an analytical balance and found the t
svetoff [14.1K]
29.213 cm3


First, calculate the mass of the water used. You do this by subtracting the original mass of the flask from the combined mass of the water and flask, giving:60.735 g - 31.601 g = 29.134 g
So we now know we have 29.134 g of water. To calculate the volume of the flask, simply divide by the density of the water, giving:29.134 g / (0.9973 g/cm3) = 29.213 cm3

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 70.1 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
lara [203]

Answer:

given,

mass of the skier = 70.1 Kg

angle with horizontal, θ = 8.6°

magnitude of the force,F = ?

a) Applying newton's second law

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} =0

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0

  F_{rope}= 102.73\ N

b) now, when acceleration, a = 0.135 m/s²

   F_{rope}-m g sin\theta = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0.135 m/s₂

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta+ma

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0+70.1\times 0.135

  F_{rope}= 112.19\ N
