Answer:

True

Explanation:

Modern safer and cheaper nuclear reactors can not only meet the range of our long term energy demands, they can also fight global warming.

Modern techniques provide ways to reduce radioactive waste amount. "A closed fuel cycle may be switched on for new kinds of nuclear plants. Alternatively, the waste is chemically dissuaded to transform the reusable element into fuel. This implies that nuclear waste would not be buried.

Precautions to be taken for the displacement method
finlep [7]

Volume by Displacement. The displacement method (submersion, or dunking method) can be used to accurately measure the volume of the human body and other oddly shaped objects by measuring the volume of fluid displaced when the object is submerged.

The following precautions should be taken very observantly:-

The line of sight must be perpendicular to measuring scale to avoid parallax error. Formation of bubbles inside the cylinder should be completely avoided. Any bubbles within leads to wrong measurements.

A mechanic uses a jack to lift up a car. He exerts a force of 11,000 N at a distance of 3m from the axis of rotation. How much t
pshichka [43]

Answer:

<h2>The amount of torque put on the car is 33,000Nm</h2>

Explanation:

Formula for calculating torque is expressed as T = rFsin\theta\\ where;

r is the radius of the  of the arm of the jack = 3m

F is the force exerted = 11000

\theta\\ is the angle of rotation = 90°

On substituting;

T = 3*11000sin90^{o} \\T = 3*11000 (sin90^{o} =1)\\T = 33000Nm

A tennis ball is released from a height of 4.0 m above the floor. After its third bounce off the floor, it reaches a height of 1
diamong [38]

Answer:

The percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %

Explanation:

Given data,

The tennis ball is released from the height, h = 4 m

After the third bounce it reaches height, h' = 183 cm

                                                                       = 1.83 m

The total mechanical energy of the ball is equal to its maximum P.E

                                      E = mgh

                                          = 4 mg

At height h', the P.E becomes

                                      E' = mgh'

                                           = 1.83 mg

The percentage of change in energy the ball retains to its original energy,

                                 \Delta E\%=\frac{1.83mg}{4mg}\times100\%

                                  ΔE % = 45 %

The ball retains only the 45% of its original energy after 3 bounces.

Therefore, the energy retains in each bounce is

                                   ∛ (0.45) = 0.77

The ball retains only the 77% of its original energy.

The energy lost to the floor is,

                                E = 100 - 77

                                   = 23 %

Hence, the percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %
