Answer:

Option A nuclear

Explanation:

The rate of electricity production in nuclear power plant is much higher as compared to the rate of electricity generation in gas, wind and solar power plants.

Thus, in case where large amount of electricity is to be produced in a short period then one must rely on nuclear power plants.

Therefore, option A is correct

An asteroid is on a collision course with Earth. An astronaut lands on the rock to bury explosive charges that will blow the ast

forsale [732]

Answer:

The maximum radius the asteroid can have for her to be able to leave it entirely simply by jumping straight up is approximately 1782.45 meters

Explanation:

Whereby the height the astronaut can jump on Earth = 0.500 m, we have the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² - 2·g·h

Where;

v = The final velocity

u = The initial velocity

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

h = The height she jumps

At the maximum height, $h_{max}$ = 0.500 m, she jumps, v = 0, therefore, we have;

0² = u² - 2·g· $h_{max}$

u² = 2 × 9.8 × 0.5 = 9.8

u = √9.8 ≈ 3.13

u = 3.13 m/s

Her initial jumping velocity ≈ 3.13 m/s

Escape velocity, $v_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \cdot G \cdot M}{r} }$

Where;

M = The mass of the asteroid

G = The Universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)

r = The radius of the asteroid

The average density of the Earth = 5515 kg/m³

The mass of the asteroid, M = Density × Volume = 5515 kg/m³× 4/3 × π × r³

The escape velocity, she has, $v_e$ ≈ 3.13 m/s is therefore;

$3.13 = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times 6.67408 \times 10^{-11} \times 5515 \times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times r^3}{r} } = r \times \sqrt{3.084 \times 10^{-6}}$

$r = \dfrac{3.13}{ \sqrt{3.084 \times 10^{-6}}} \approx 1782.45$

Therefore, the maximum radius of the asteroid can have for her jumping velocity to be equal to the escape velocity for her to be able to leave it entirely simply by jumping straight up = r ≈ 1782.45 meters.

Little Tammy lines up to tackle Jackson to (unsuccessfully) prove the law of conservation of momentum. Tammy’s mass is 34.0 kg a

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

So Tammy must move with speed 4.76 m/s in opposite direction of Jackson

Explanation:

As per law of conservation of momentum we know that there is no external force on it

So here we can say that initial momentum of the system must be equal to the final momentum of the system

now we have

$m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = 0$

final they both comes to rest so here we can say that final momentum must be zero

now we have

$34 v + 54 (3 m/s) = 0$

$v = -4.76 m/s$

1. A 4-N force is used to move an object 2 m in 10 s. Which of the following is the power generated while moving the object?

guajiro [1.7K]

Power is the work done per unit time. Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} p=\frac{w}{t} \\ \text{where} \\ w=\text{work done} \\ t=\text{time} \end{gathered}$

Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} \text{work done=fd} \\ f=force=4N \\ d=\text{displacement}=2m \\ t=2\sec s \\ p=\frac{fd}{t}=\frac{4\times2}{10}=\frac{8}{10}=0.8watts \end{gathered}$

A balloon is expanded to the same volume as that of a human head. Do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the volume of this balloo

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Volume of balloon = 1000 cm^3

Explanation:

The head of a normal person can be assumed as a sphere with radius 10 cm.

Volume of sphere $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ , where r is the radius.

We have approximate radius = 10 cm.

Approximate volume of head $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3=\frac{4}{3} *\pi* 10^3=4188cm^3$

In the given options the closest value to the approximate volume is 1000 cm^3.

So, volume of head = Volume of balloon = 1000 cm^3
