<h2>Answer: On December 20th, 1951 in Idaho, United States. </h2>

The world's first experimental nuclear power plant was the Experimental Breeder Reactor Number One (EBR-I), which was built in a desert in Idaho, United States.

This reactor made history when, on December 20th, 1951, four 200-watt light bulbs were illuminated by means of atomic energy, specifically by nuclear fission reaction.

item 1= 100 kg rock
Item 2= 5kg book
item 3= 60kg person
item 4=2000kg car.

The answer is the last item which is a 2000kg car.

What kind of energy involves the flow of negative charges?
german

Answer: static electricity

Explanation: The movement of charged particles through a wire or other medium is called current or electricity. There is also static electricity, which results from an imbalance or separation of the positive and negative charges on an object. Static electricity is a form of electrical potential energy

A uniform solid ball rolls smoothly along a floor, then up a ramp inclined at 33.0°. It momentarily stops when it has rolled 1.7
galben [10]

Answer:

v = 3.6 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Inclination of the ramp, θ = 33⁰

Distance of the rope, d = 1.70 m

initial speed = ?

using conservation of energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I_{com}\omega^2 = m g h

h = d sinθ  

h = 1.7 x sin 33° = 0.926 m

moment of inertia of the solid ball

I_{com}= \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2  

we know, v = r ω

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{2}{5}mR^2\times \dfrac{v^2}{R^2}= m g h

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh

gh= \dfrac{7}{10}v^2

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{7}gh}

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{7}\times 9.8\times 0.926}

v = 3.6 m/s

Hence, initial speed of the solid ball = 3.6 m/s

What happens when the electron moves from the first energy level to the second energy level?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Energy is absorbed by the atom.

Emission lines occur only in the case of transitions from higher to lower energy levels in which energy is emitted.
