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.

An object of mass 100kg is raised 2m above the ground using an Inclined Plane of length 10m calculate the effort parallel to inc
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Slope = 2 m / 10 m = 1/5

For every  5 m of effort the object will be raised 1 m

W = work done on object = M g h      increase in PE of object

E S = W      where E is effort and S the distance thru which the effort acts

E S = M g H

E = 100 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2 m / 10 m = 196 kg m / s^2 = 196 N

Check: total work = 2 * 9.8 * 100 = 1960 J

Force Needed = 1960 J / 2 m = 980 Newtons

Mechanical advantage = 980 / 196 = 5   as one would expect since the object is raised 1 m for every 5 m of force input
