Which best describes fusion nuclear reactors? They use rods containing uranium for fuel. They are currently used for electricity

in several highly populated countries. They are used in some naval vessels, such as submarines. They have been successful, but they are very expensive to operate.

<h2>Right answer: They have been successful, but they are very expensive to operate. </h2>

A fusion reactor is a facility in which nuclear fusion reactions take place in a fuel formed by hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium), releasing energy in the form of heat, and then transforming it into electrical energy.

At the moment there is no commercial fusion reactor that allows to obtain electrical energy, although there are experimental research facilities where fusion reactions are studied, as well as the technology that will be used in the future.

In other words:

All commercial nuclear reactors currently in use work with <u>nucler fission</u> (separation of the components of the atom nucleous), not <u>nuclear fusion</u> (joining two light nucleous to form a heavier nucleous). And this is because, although experimental reactors have already shown us that nuclear fusion works, it is such a complex process that has not been yet found a way to get the fusion reaction to behave in a stable way for a long time and it is expensive as well.

A 2kg watermelon is dropped from a 4m tall roof a) use the appropriate kinematic equations to determine the instantaneous veloci
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

8.85m/s

Explanation:

The potential energy the watermelon held before dropping is Ep=mgh=2*9.8*4=78.4J.

When it strikes the ground, all of its Ep will transfer into Ek, so 1/2*m*v^2=78.4.

We already knew that m=2, so insert that in, we will get the V^2=78.4 m/s, V=8.85 m/s

You launch a cannonball at an angle of 35° and an initial velocity of 36 m/s (assume y = y₁=
velikii [3]

Answer:

Approximately 4.2\; {\rm s} (assuming that the projectile was launched at angle of 35^{\circ} above the horizon.)

Explanation:

Initial vertical component of velocity:

\begin{aligned}v_{y} &= v\, \sin(35^{\circ}) \\ &= (36\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})\, (\sin(35^{\circ})) \\ &\approx 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

The question assumed that there is no drag on this projectile. Additionally, the altitude of this projectile just before landing y_{1} is the same as the altitude y_{0} at which this projectile was launched: y_{0} = y_{1}.

Hence, the initial vertical velocity of this projectile would be the exact opposite of the vertical velocity of this projectile right before landing. Since the initial vertical velocity is 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (upwards,) the vertical velocity right before landing would be (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) (downwards.) The change in vertical velocity is:

\begin{aligned}\Delta v_{y} &= (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &= -41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Since there is no drag on this projectile, the vertical acceleration of this projectile would be g. In other words, a = g = -9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}.

Hence, the time it takes to achieve a (vertical) velocity change of \Delta v_{y} would be:

\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{\Delta v_{y}}{a_{y}} \\ &= \frac{-41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{-9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 4.2\; {\rm s} \end{aligned}.

Hence, this projectile would be in the air for approximately 4.2\; {\rm s}.

SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

c. initial (x and y)

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.

Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"

Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.
