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 certain type of bird lives in two regions of a state. The distribution of weight for birds of this type in the northern region
Annette [7]

Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.

Explanation: <u>Z-score</u> is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.

The z-score is calculated by the following:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

where

x is the data point

μ is population mean

σ is standard deviation

For the <u>northern</u> <u>region</u> birds:

μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

z=\frac{13-10}{3}

z = 1

The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation <em>above the mean</em>.

For the southern region:

μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

z=\frac{13-16}{2.5}

z = -1.2

The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations <em>below the mean</em>.

10 turns of wire are closely wound around a pencil as shown in the figure. when measured using a scale as shown, the length of t
Mila [183]

Answer:

a. The thickness of the wire is 2.5 mm.

b. The wire is 0.25 cm thick.

Explanation:

Number of turns of the wire = 10

The length of total turns = 25 mm

a. The thickness of the wire can be determined by;

thickness of the wire = \frac{length of total turns}{number of turns}

                           = \frac{25}{10}

                           = 2.5 mm

Therefore, the wire is 2.5 mm thick.

b. To determine the thickness of the wire in centimetre;

10 mm = 1 cm

So that,

2.5 mm = x

x  = \frac{2.5}{10}

   = 0.25 cm

The wire is 0.25 cm thick.

A backpack has a mass of 8 kg. It is lifted and given 54.9 J of gravitational potential energy. How high is it lifted? Accelerat
sweet [91]
Potencial Energy=hma
Where
Potencial Energy =E= 54.9J
h=?
m=8kg
a=9.8m/s^2
You need to know that 1 J=1(kgm^2)/s^2

Isolate h=E/(ma)
h=(54.9)/(8*9.8)
