Answer: D. Density of uranium within nuclear fuel rods is insufficient to become explosive
Explanation: Nuclear power plants use the same fuel as nuclear bombs, i.e. radioactive Uranium-235 isotope. However, in a nuclear power plant, the energy is released more slowly unlike in a nuclear bomb. <em>The energy released is through nuclear fission, and radioactive decay occurs at the same rate as in nuclear bombs. therefore, option A, B</em><em> </em><em>and C are incorrect.</em>
The primary reason why nuclear chain reactions within power plants do NOT produce bomb-like explosions is because the uranium fuel rods used in electricity generation is not sufficiently enriched in Uranium-235 to produce a nuclear detonation. This is the same idea in option D which is the correct option.
Answer:
The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.
Explanation:
" law of conservation of energy"
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form of energy into another.This mean that a system always has a same account of a energy,unless it is added from the outside.This is particularly confusing in the case of non conversation forces,where energy is converted from ,mechanical energy into thermal energy.but the overall energy does remain the same.The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.
The amount of energy in any system than it is determined by the following equation.
Ut=Ui +W+Q
- Ut is the total internal energy of a system.
- Ui is the initial internal energy of a system.
- W is the work done by or on the system.
- Q is the heat added to or removed by the system.
It is also possible to determined the change in internal energy of the system using the equation.
ΔU=W+Q
The mechanical energy of a system increases provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.The energy would transform to kinetic energy when the speed is increasing.Te mechanical energy of a system remain constant provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.
The law of conversation of energy which say that in a closed system total energy is conserved that is it constant.
KE1 + PE1=KE2+PE2
<span>Brass is an <u>alloy</u>. An alloy
is a mixture of elements to form a unique material. Brass is a mixture of copper
and zinc and the percentage of each element depends on the desired material. It
has a higher malleability than bronze or zinc. Meaning that it can be bend
easily into it desired form.</span>
Explanation:
In local galactic group the force of expansion of universe is overcome by the force of attraction due to gravity. Best example is our own galaxy milky way and another giant galaxy in our local group Andromeda. Andromeda having enormous gravity is pulling milky way towards itself, overcoming the force of expansion.
So, there are possibilities of collision despite the expansion of universe at a rapid pace. It is estimated that the milky way and Andromeda will collide each other after about 50 billion years from now.

<span><span>The
best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is </span>B.-2.71 V.</span>
Mg2+(aq) + 2e- -> Mg(s) E=-2.37 V
Cu2+(aq) + 2e- -> Cu(s) E =+ 0.34 V
Since Cu is acting as the anode, the equation needs to be
reversed.
Cu(s) -> Cu2+(aq) + 2e- E =- 0.34 V
Ecell= -2.37 V+ (- 0.34 V) = -2.71 V
