This statement is true. Among all the other sources of energy, nuclear energy from radioactive elements are the ones that create a very massive energy. Radioactive elements are unstable because they have high neutron-proton ratio. That's why they undergo nuclear reactions to reduce this ratio. As a result, they give off sub-atomic particles called alpha, beta, gamma and positron molecules. Because these particles have to be pulled out of the nucleus, it release great energy in the from of heat. This heat then turns the turbine so it could activate the generator to make electricity.

calculate the resistance of 50m length of wire of cross sectional area 0.01 square mm and of resistivity 5*10 to the power minus
Pachacha [2.7K]
Resistance R = resistivity * length / area

R = 5  10^{-8} * 50 m / 0.01 *  10^{-3} * 10^{-3}

R =  250 Ohms

Does a car have antennae?what senses does it have?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The ground of an antenna needs to be attached to the car in such a way that the voltage of the antenna can connect to the earth. This connection allows the earth to receive and store excess voltage rather than the extra voltage bouncing back through your antenna and radio.

A student's calculation for the work done on an object is shown.
MissTica

The statement that describes the error in the work is that the distance must be converted to meters (m).

<h3>FORMULA FOR WORK:</h3>

Work can be calculated by using the following formula:

W = F × d

Where;

  • W = work done
  • F = force (N)
  • d = distance (m)

According to this question, the force is given as 140N and the distance is given as 30cm. The force is calculated as follows:

F = 140N × 30cm = 4200J

This calculation is erroneous because the unit of distance should be converted from cm to meters.
