Answer:

option A.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A.

Nuclear power plant are used to generate electricity. In these power plant energy is produced by fission in the nuclear reactor.

The most common fuel used for the production of energy is U-235.

Control rods are inserted in the reactor if energy requirement is less and when energy requirement is large Control rods are remove. Hence, we can say that control rod can be used to regulate the reaction in the nuclear power plant.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

F = M ω^2 R     is the centripetal force on the ball

f = 7 / 10 = .70 / sec      revolutions / sec

ω = 2 pi f = 4.40 / sec

ah = F / m = 4.4^2 * 2 = 38.7 m/s^2

horizontal acceleration = 38.7 m/s^2

vertical acceleration = 9.80 m/s^2

a = (38.7^2 + 9.8^2)^1/2 = 39.9 m/s^2    total acceleration

1. What is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave?
Andreyy89

#1

As we know that energy of electromagnetic wave is given by

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

so here we know that penetrating power will directly depends on its energy and energy inversely depends on wavelength

So here we can say correct answer will be

C) The penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases.

#2

Speed of sound is maximum in solids and minimum in gas

so here as ice melts into water the speed of sound must have to decrease

so correct answer will be

D) The speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids.

#3

mechanical waves required medium to travel while non mechanical waves do not require any medium to travel

so here correct answer will be

A) sound
