Answer:

It passes through a step-down transformer.

Explanation:

Electric current in power lines must be stepped down before they enter our homes because they carry a very high voltage.

The voltage can destroy appliances that have very low voltage.

In this regard, a step down transformer is used to achieve this effect.
The transformer brings the voltage to a level fit to consumers to use.
When voltage is stepped down, appliances can work perfectly.

Multiple-Concept Example 6 reveiws the principles that play a role in this problem. A nuclear power reactor generates 2.3 x 109

Answer:

change in mass = 2.41*10^{8}kg

Explanation:

The change in the mass can be computed by using the relation

$E=\Delta mc^2\\\Delta m=\frac{E}{c^2}$ (1)

That is, the energy liberated comes from the mass of the nuclear fuel. The energy generated in one year is

$E=Pt=2.3*10^{9}\frac{J}{s}*1 year*\frac{365.25 day}{1 year}*\frac{24h}{1 day}*\frac{3600s}{1h}=7.25*10^{16}J$

Hence, by replacing in the equation (1) you have (c=3*10^{8}m/s)

$\Delta m=\frac{7.25*10^{16}J}{3*10^{8}\frac{m}{s}}=2.41*10^{8}kg$

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas. They all have rings with plenty of moons.

Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = $\frac{Qa + Qb}{2}$

charge on each sphere = $\frac{-6 + 2}{2}$ = $\frac{-4}{2}$ = <em>-2 units of charge</em>
