Answer:

294 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object is the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the object.

The direction of this force is always towards the Earth's centre, while the magnitude is given by:

$W=mg$

where

W is the weight

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Here we have:

m = 30 kg is the mass of the object

g = 9.8 N/kg is the acceleration due to gravity

So, the weight of the object is

$W=(30)(9.8)=294 N$

Which of the following parts of a nuclear power plant is turned by steam? Select one: a. control rods b. reactor vessel c. turbi

SOVA2 [1]

A nuclear power plant is defined as a thermal power station where electricity is generated by the help of sustainable nuclear fission.

A nuclear power plant needs nuclear reactor as the thermal energy generator .The reactor has various parts where fissionable radioactive material will undergo nuclear fission .Through this process high amount of thermal energy is released which is allowed to water to generate steam.

The steam produced in the reactor drives the turbine which is connected to the generator.Due to the electromagnetic induction the generator will produce electricity.

The control rods present in the nuclear reactor will control the rate of fission by absorbing the thermal neutrons.

Hence the correct answer of the question is C i.e Turbine.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, the complete question is

"A circular coil of radius r = 5 cm and resistance R = 0.2 ? is placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the coil. The magnitude of the field changes with time according to B = 0.5 e^-t T. What is the magnitude of the current induced in the coil at the time t = 2 s?"

2.6mA

Explanation:

we need to determine the emf induced in the coil and y applying ohm's law we determine the current induced.

using the formula be low,

$E=-\frac{d}{dt}(BACOS\alpha )\\$

where B is the magnitude of the field and A is the area of the circular coil.

First, let determine the area using $\pi r^{2} \\$ where r is the radius of 5cm or 0.05m

$A=\pi *(0.05)^{2}\\ A=0.00785m^{2}\\$

since we no that the angle is at $0^{0}$

we determine the magnitude of the magnetic filed

$B=0.5e^{-t} \\t=2s$

$E=-(0.5e^{-2} * 0.00785)$

$E=-0.000532v\\$

the Magnitude of the voltage is 0.000532V

Next we determine the current using ohm's law

$V=IR\\R=0.2\\I=\frac{0.000532}{0.2} \\I=0.0026A$

$I=2.6mA$

A ball is lodged in a hole in the floor near the outside edge of a merry-go-round that is turning at constant speed. Which kinem

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that the ball is lodged in a hole in the floor of merry-go-round that is running at a constant speed.

Now the ball is moving a vertical circular motion

The position of the ball changes w.r.t to the center as it moves in a circular path i.e. vectorially it changes but its magnitude will remain the same.

The velocity of the ball is the same as merry-go-round so its magnitude remains the same but its direction will change continuously.

As the ball is moving in a circular path so a centripetal acceleration will acts towards the center so its value will be continuously changing.

Two children fight over a 200g stuffed bear. The 25kg boy pulls to the right with a 15N force and the 20kg girl pulls to the lef

Sati [7]

The masses of the children may not be taken into account since these are towards the ground and directly affecting the bear. The net force is the difference of the forces since they are acting on opposite sides. The magnitude of this net force is equal to 2N and the sign is to where the greater force is from. Therefore, the force is directed towards the left.
