Answer:

1) The energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity is called nuclear energy.

2) It is not renewable because it is an element that has no way whatsoever to regenerate or replicate itself, nor gets created by any natural terrestrial means, neither makes itself available by arriving from outer space (like sunlight). There is a limited amount of it available on the Earth, and every bit you use is a bit you’ll never have available again (as Uranium atoms get destroyed by the fission process).

Hope this helps You

A 10-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slides down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/sec, how fast is the b

netineya [11]

Answer: The bottom of the ladder is moving at 3.464ft/sec

Explanation:

The question defines a right angle triangle. Therefore using pythagorean

h^2 + l^2 = 10^2 = 100 ...eq1

dh/dt = -2ft/sec

dl/ dt = ?

Taking derivatives of time in eq 1 on both sides

2hdh/dt + 2ldl/dt = 0 ....eq2

Putting l = 5ft in eq2

h^ + 5^2 = 100

h^2 = 25 = 100

h Sqrt(75)

h = 8.66 ft

Put h = 8.66ft in eq2

2 × 8.66 × (-2) + 2 ×5 dl/dt

dl/dt = 17.32 / 5

dl/dt = 3.464ft/sec

He vector parts that add up to the resultant are called ____.

cupoosta [38]

1. Answer: components

A two dimensional vector can be divided into two parts called horizontal component and vertical component.

A three dimensional vector can be divided into three components: one along x-axis, one along y-axis and one along z-axis.

Hence, the vector parts that add up to the resultant are called components.

2. Answer: 5 miles.

The resultant distance along the straight line from the starting point to the end point would be the displacement.

The displacement would be equal to the magnitude of the hypotenuse formed in the right triangle.

Displacement, $d=\sqrt{4^2+3^2}=\sqrt{16+9}=\sqrt{25}=5 miles$

3. Answer: Scalar

A scalar quantity has only magnitude. For example, speed and distance are scalar quantities and can be normally added to find the total.

A vector quantity has both magnitude as well as direction. The components are summed according to vector addition rules. For example, velocity, acceleration, force etc.

Two charges, q1 and q2, are separated by a certain distance r. if the magnitudes of the charges are halved and their separation

vazorg [7]

The electrical force between these two charges remains the same. In coulomb’s law, it states that the magnitude of two charges (product of two charges) is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Since both the magnitude and the distance are halved, therefore, the change in both quantities will have no effect in the value of electrical force.

In the great shopping cart race, two students push on shopping carts. A having twice the mass of B, with the same force applied

fiasKO [112]

B. cart B

Explanation:

The acceleration of each cart is given by Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

where F is the force applied, a is the acceleration and m is the cart's mass.

The force F applied is the same for the two carts, however the mass of cart A (mA) is twice than the mass of cart B (mB), so we can rewrite the two accelerations:

$a_A = \frac{F}{m_A}=\frac{F}{2 m_B}$

$a_B = \frac{F}{m_B}$

we see that the acceleration of cart B is twice the acceleration of cart A, therefore cart B will move faster and will win the race.

How much work is required to turn an electric dipole 180° in a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 46.0 N/C if the dipole mo

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

$W=1.22*10^{-23}J$

Explanation:

Torque and energy of an electric dipole in an electric field we find:

$W=U(\alpha_{o}+\pi )-U(\alpha_{o} )=-pE(cos(\alpha_{o}+\pi )-cos(\alpha_{o} ))\\W=2pECos\alpha_{o}\\ W=2(3.02*10^{-25}C.m )(46.oN/C)Cos64\\W=1.22*10^{-23}J$
