In normal fission reactors, the fuel used to start the nuclear fission is Uranium-235. 
Generally, fuel rods enriched with uranium-235 are used to start the fission. When a nucleus of uranium-235 absorbs a neutron, it becomes unstable and then it breaks apart, producing two smaller nuclei, several neutrons and energy. The additional neutrons produced in the reaction are then absorbed by other nuclei of uranium-235, triggering other fission reactions, and so on.

A milliammeter has an internal resistance of 5ohms and
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Rs = 0.02008 Ω = 20.08 mΩ

Explanation:

The range of an ammeter can be increased by connecting a small shunt resistance to it in a series combination. This shunt resistance can be calculated by the following formula:

Rs = \frac{I_gR_g}{I - I_g}

where,

R_s = value of shunt resistance = ?

I_g = current range of ammeter = 20 mA = 0.02 A

I = Required range of ammeter = 5 A

R_g = Resistance of ammeter = 5 ohms

Therefore,

R_s = \frac{(0.02\ A)(5\ ohms)}{5\ A-0.02\ A}

<u>Rs = 0.02008 Ω = 20.08 mΩ</u>

Describe a situation in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external
irina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Situations in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external magnetic field

a ) When an electron is stationary in the electric field and magnetic field , he will be affected by electric field but not by magnetic field. Magnetic field can exert force only on mobile charges.

b ) When the electron is moving parallel to electric field and magnetic field . In this case also electric field will  exert force on electron but magnetic field field will not exert force on electrons . Magnetic field can exert force only on the perpendicular component of the velocity of charged particles.

Situations when electron is affected by an external magnetic field but not by an external electric field

There is no such situation in which electric field will not affect an electron . It will always affect an electron .

amid [387]

a.) the belief that stars and planets revolve around the earth

Explanation:

The geocentric model of stars and planets is the belief that stars and planets revolves around the earth.

The model places the earth at the center of the system.

  • Geo - earth ; centric - center
  • This was the original school of thought about the way the earth relates to other bodies in the universe.
  • This model was replaced by the heliocentric universe in which stars are at the center and the planets revolves round them.
  • The idea was put forward by Nicola Copernicus
