Answer: a. boiler - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.

b. combustion chamber - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.

c. condenser - III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.

d. control rod - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.

e. generator- III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.

f. turbine - III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.

Explanation:

a. Boiler: It is used in the coal power plant to heat the water used for producing electricity. The boiler keeps the temperature of water or steam at a desired level.

b. Combustion chamber: It is used for combustion of coal and using thermal energy for electricity generation.

c. Condenser; It is used in both nuclear and coal power plants. It condense and receive from the turbine.

d. Control rod: It is used in the nuclear power plant for controlling the nuclear fission and fusion reactions of heavy metals.

e. Generator: It converts the thermal energy into electrical energy.

f. Turbine: The turbine blades move with the effect of steam or any form of energy and the energy so produce is used for generating electricity in generator.

An ideal gas, initially at a pressure of 11.2 atm and a temperature of 299 K, is allowed to expand adiabatically until its volum

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The pressure is $P_2 = 4.25 \ a.t.m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial pressure is $P_1 = 11.2\ a.t.m$

The temperature is $T_1 = 299 \ K$

Let the first volume be $V_1$ Then the final volume will be $2 V_1$

Generally for a diatomic gas

$P_1 V_1 ^r = P_2 V_2 ^r$

Here r is the radius of the molecules which is mathematically represented as

$r = \frac{C_p}{C_v}$

Where $C_p \ and\ C_v$ are the molar specific heat of a gas at constant pressure and the molar specific heat of a gas at constant volume with values

$C_p=7 \ and\ C_v=5$

=> $r = \frac{7}{5}$

=> $11.2*( V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } ) = P_2 * (2 V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } )$

=> $P_2 = [\frac{1}{2} ]^{\frac{7}{5} } * 11.2$

=> $P_2 = 4.25 \ a.t.m$

Answer:

y = 33.93 10⁵ m

Explanation:

This is an interference exercise, for the contributory interference is described by the expression

d sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry for the angle

tan θ = y / L

how the angles are small

tan θ = sin θ / cos tea = sin θ

we substitute

sin θ = y / L

d y / L = m λ

y = m λ L / d

the light fulfills the relation of the waves

c = λ f

λ = c / f

λ = 3 10⁸ /375

λ = 8 10⁵ m

first order m = 1

let's calculate

y = 1 8 10⁵ 4030 10-9 / 950 10-9

y = 33.93 10⁵ m

Behavioral Adaptations: Behavior that animals begin life with that helps them meet their needs is called ________.

Arturiano [62]

I believe the blank would simply be behaviour adaptations. Behavioural adaptations are behaviours that organisms demonstrate to help them better survive and reproduce in a habitat. Hope that helps!!
