Answer: A)There is a high ratio of energy to cost

Positives:

A Chunk of Uranium can power a city a lot longer than a chunk of coal. 
It also does not contribute to pollution since what comes out of the tower is steam.

Negatives:

It is very expensive to build and maintain a nuclear power plant at first so investors whom want money up front are more reluctant to loan money for one.

If the plant does melt down it is very bad for the enviroment and its people, for example Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Ukraine will not be able to be lived in for approximently 20,000 years.

The atomic symbol Superscript 206 subscript 82 upper P b. represents lead-206 (Pb-206), an isotope that has 82 protons and 124 n
Serggg [28]

Answer:

\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb \right.

Explanation:

isotopes are various forms of same elements with different atomic number but different mass number.

Radioactivity is the emission of rays or particles from an atom to produce a new nuclei. There are various forms of radioactive emissions which are

  • Alpha particle emission  \left \{ {{y=4} \atop {x=2}}He \right.
  • Beta particle emission    \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=-1}}e \right.
  • gamma radiation             \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right.

in the problem the product formed after radiation was Pb-206. isotopes of lead include Pb-204, Pb-206, Pb-207, Pb-208. they all have atomic number 82. which means the radiation cannot be ∝ or β since both radiations will alter the atomic number of the parent nucleus.

Only gamma radiation with \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right. will produce a Pb-206 of atomic number 82 and mass number 206 , since gamma ray have 0 mass and has 0 atomic number.equation is shown below

\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right ⇒ \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right +  \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ\right.

Thus the atomic symbol is \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right

What are the four most common problems that can arise in your motor design?
Nuetrik [128]

Electric motors are an essential part of our daily life as many systems, applications, and services depend on them. Motors today have a long service life and require a minimum level of maintenance to make sure that they perform efficiently. In large buildings, motors have to be maintained on a regular basis because they need to be in operation all the time; one small problem could cause a great loss to the organization.

Usually in large organizations, a motor maintenance program is carried out in which the causes of motor failures are identified and some necessary steps are taken to avoid them or lower their impact. Motors need to be inspected regularly, and other maintenance activities need to be performed to ensure efficient operation. Whenever a problem occurs, it should be corrected immediately to avoid further loss.
