horrorfan [7]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The freezing of water into ice causes the cracks to widen because it occupy more space.

Explanation:

When the water change its state of liquid to solid state due to decrease in temperature, it contracts means occupy less space but when the temperature reaches to 4 degree Celsius, it starts to expand. When the temperature goes below 0 degree Celsius, it will cause more expansion and occupy more space that causes the cracks to widen.

The energy of a nuclear reactor gets converted to electricity by using steam. As steam converts mechanical energy to electricity.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Nuclear reaction works on the principle of nuclear fission. The main functioning of nuclear reactor is the generation of neutrons by fission of Uranium oxide.

The rate of generation of neutrons need to be controlled in the reaction to have a controlled chain reaction which is suitable for generating electricity.

So, the controlling of rate of nuclear generation is done by moderators. The moderators are generally water or graphite in any nuclear reactor. So during these process, steam is produced in the reactor core which then flows through a turbine engine.

The steam rotates the turbines in the generator and thus the mechanical energy of the turbine during rotation is converted as the electrical energy in the generator.
