The commercial power generation is done using the nuclear fission reaction.

Answer: option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

The nuclear fission reaction is the reaction in the nucleus where the nucleus is divided into smaller parts. It is apparent from the name itself as it’s a destructive reaction where the nucleus splits.

This splitting of the nucleus occurs as a result of the heavy bombardment done over the atom through which the nucleus splits. The splitting is done into many parts of a smaller size.

Which statement describes how the photoelectric effect causes an electric

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

A. Light acts as particles, causing electrons on the surface it strikes to be destroyed.

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon that occurs when light shined onto a metal surface causes the ejection of electrons from that metal. It was observed that only certain frequencies of light are able to cause the ejection of electrons.

You work at a garden store for the summer, and you lift a 14 kg bag of fertilizer with a force of 227 N.

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of the bag will be a=16.214m/sec^2

(B) Weight of the bag will be 137.2 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the bag m = 14 kg

Force with which bag is lifted = 227 N

(A) According to newtons law we force is equal to F = ma , here m is mass and a is acceleration

So $227=14\times a$

$a=16.214m/sec^2$

(b) Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We know that weight is given by W = mg , here m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

So weight $W=mg=14\times 9.8=137.2N$

So weight of the bag will be 137.2 N

What is the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic?

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Prokaryotes are organisms that consist of a single prokaryotic cell. Eukaryotic cells are found in plants, animals, fungi, and protists. They range from 10–100 μm in diameter, and their DNA is contained within a membrane-bound nucleus. Eukaryotes are organisms containing eukaryotic cells.
