<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.

While playing baseball with your friends your hands begin to sting after you ctach several fast balls.
muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

To stop a ball with high momentum in a small-time imparts a high amount of impact on hands. This is the reason for the stinging of hands.

The momentum of the ball is due to the mass and velocity. To prevent stinging in the hand one needs to lower his hands to increase the time of contact. In this way, the momentum transfer to the hands will be lesser.

A proposed space station consists of a circular tube that will rotate about its center (like a tubular bicycle tire), Fig. 5–39.
Trava [24]

Answer:

1742.24106 revolutions per day

Explanation:

v = Velocity

d = Diameter = 1.1 km

r = Radius = \dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{1.1}{2}=0.55\ km

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

g = 0.9 g

The centrifugal force will balance the gravitational force

F_c=mg\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{mv^2}{r}=m0.9g\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.9gmr}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{0.9gr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{0.9\times 9.81\times 0.55\times 10^3}\\\Rightarrow v=69.68464\ m/s

\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{v}{2\pi r}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{69.68464}{2\pi 0.55\times 10^3}\times 24\times 60\times 60\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{T}=1742.24106\ rev/day

The rotation speed is 1742.24106 revolutions per day
