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 child has an ear canal that is 1.3 cm long. At what sound frequencies in the audible range will the child have increased heari
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The answer to this is

6600 Hz to 19,800 Hz

Explanation:

The shape of the human ear is analogous to a closed ended pipe hence

we have λ = 4L or wavelength = 4 * length of the child ear

The frequency  c/λ  where c = speed of sound = 343 m/s

hence the child's audible range is multiples of 343/(4*0.13) =6600Hz

or 13200 Hz or 19,800 Hz

The generally quoted range of human hearing is 20 Hz to 20 kHz

A uniform magnetic field B=5.210 T is perpendicular to the plane of the paper (into the page). The current-carrying wire of valu
ehidna [41]

Answer:5.21 N

Explanation:

Given

B=5.210 T

I=2 A

L=0.5 m

Given Wire is perpendicular to Magnetic field

\theta =90^{\circ}

F=IL\times B

F=BIL sin\theta

F=5.210\cdot 2\cdot 0.5 sin(90)

F=5.210 N

as  1 Tesla =1 N/A/m

The speed of sound in sea water is about 1530 m/s. If a sound wave has a frequency of 2.50 x 10^2 Hz, what is its wavelength in
Setler [38]

Answer: 6.12metres

Explanation:

The wavelength is the distance covered by the wave in one complete cycle. It is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ

Recall that Wavespeed (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

V = F λ

In this case,

Wavespeed of sound = 1530 m/s

Frequency of sound = 2.50 x 10^2 Hz

Wavelength = ? (let the unknown value be Z)

Apply V = F λ

1530 m/s = 2.50 x 10^2 Hz x Z

Z = (1530 m/s / 2.50 x 10^2 Hz)

Z = (1530 m/s / 250Hz)

Z = 6.12m

Thus, the wavelength of sound in sea water is 6.12m
