Explanation:
Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.
Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.
Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.
As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.
Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.
Answer:
The driver hits the stationery dog because the applied force is less than required force
Explanation:
Kinetic energy will be given by
where m is the mass of the vehicle and v is the speed/velocity of the vehicle.
Substituting 800 Kg for m and 20 m/s for v we obtain

Frictional force by vehicle pads is given by
where d is the distance moved
Substituting 160000 for KE and 50 m for d we obtain

Therefore, the vehicle hits the dog since the required force is 3200N but the driver applied only 2000 N
Power = work/time = (Force times distance)/time
= (30N *10.0m)/5.00s = 300/5 = 60 Watts
Answer:
Explanation:
The cross product of two vectors is given by

Where, θ be the angle between the two vectors and \widehat{n} be the unit vector along the direction of cross product of two vectors.
Here, K x i = - j
As K is the unit vector along Z axis, i is the unit vector along X axis and j be the unit vector along axis.
The direction of cross product of two vectors is given by the right hand palm rule.
So, k x i = j
j x i = - k
- j x k = - i
i x i = 0
