Answer:

B. Nuclear to Electrical

Explanation:

Atoms are split at power plants to create electricity. The energy conversion in this process is from nuclear to electrical energy.

When atoms are split, nuclear energy is released.
Some part of the mass of the atom is converted to energy.
The nuclear energy released is expressed as heat energy.
This energy is used to heat water in boilers when produces steam that are used to drive the movement of turbines.
This in turn generates electricity.

A myopic (nearsighted) lawyer has a far point of 60.0 cm. What is the diopter value of suitable corrective contacts?

Vlada [557]

Answer:

P = -1.67 dP

Explanation:

given,

myopic lawyer has a far point of = 60.0 cm = 0.6 m

If a person is suffering from myopia then he cannot see the farthest object clearly.

Image of far object does not form on the retina so, the image appear to be blur.

using lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}$

$-\dfrac{1}{0.6} = \dfrac{1}{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{f} =P$

$P = -\dfrac{1}{0.6}$

P = -1.67 dP

A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between the steel spatula and the Teflon frying p

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$f_n=3.75N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frictional force $F=0.150N$

Coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu=0.04$

Generally the equation for Normal for is mathematically given by

$f_n=\frac{F}{\mu}$

Therefore

$f_n=\frac{0.150}{0.04}$

$f_n=3.75N$

How much force is needed to accelerate a 68 kilogram-skier at a rate of 1.2 m/sec^2?

DiKsa [7]

<span>Answer: Force = 81.6 N

Explanation:
According to Newton's Second law:
F = ma --- (1)

Where F = Force = ?
m = Mass = 68 kg
a = Acceleration = 1.2 m/s^2

Plug in the values in (1):
(1) => F = 68 * 1.2
F = 81.6 N (The force needed to accelerate the skier at a rate of 1.2 m/s^2)</span>
