In a nuclear power plant, uranium atoms ______

Physics
1 answer:
motikmotik2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

All nuclear power plants use nuclear fission, and most nuclear power plants use uranium atoms. During nuclear fission, a neutron collides with a uranium atom and splits it, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. More neutrons are also released when a uranium atom splits.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

A solenoid is a type of electromagnet, the purpose of which is to generate a controlled magnetic field through a coil wound into a tightly packed helix. The coil can be arranged to produce a uniform magnetic field in a volume of space when an electric current is passed through it.

A child on a tricycle is moving at a speed of 1.40 m/s at the start of a 2.25 m high and 12.4 m long incline. The total mass is
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the child, v_i = 1.4 m/s

final velocity of the child, v_f = 6.5 m/s

initial height of the inclined plane, h = 2.25 m

length of the inclined plane, L = 12.4 m

total mass, m = 48 kg

frictional force, f_k = 41 N

The work done by the child is calculated as;

\Delta E_{mech} = W - f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \Delta E_{mech}  + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = (K.E_f - K.E_i) + (P.E_f - P.E_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} m(v_f^2 - v_i^2) + mg(h_f - h_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} \times 48(6.5^2 - 1.4^2) + 48\times 9.8(0-2.25) + (41\times 12.4)\\\\W = 966.96  \ - \ 1058.4 \ + \ 508.4\\\\W = 416.96 \ J

Therefore, the work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J

A 7 kg object attached to a horizontal string moves with constant speed in a circle on a frictionless horizontal surface. The ki
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of object m=7 kg

kinetic Energy k=36\ J

Tension in string T=326\ N

mass is moving in a horizontal circle so tension is providing the centripetal acceleration

therefore T=\frac{mv^2}{r}----1

where r=radius of circle

kinetic energy of particle k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

\frac{T}{k}=\frac{\frac{mv^2}{r}}{\frac{1}{2}mv^2}

\frac{T}{k}=\frac{2}{r}

r=\frac{2k}{T}=\frac{2\times 36}{326}

r=0.2208\ m

A coil of wire consists of 20 turns, each of which has an area of 0.0015 m2. A magnetic field is perpendicular to the surface wi
stepan [7]

Answer:

magnitude of the induced emf in the coil is 0.0153 V

Explanation:

Given data

no of turns = 20

area = 0.0015 m²

magnitude  B1 = 4.91 T/s

magnitude  B2 = 5.42 T/s

to find out

the magnitude of the induced emf in the coil

solution

we know here

emf = -n A d∅ /dt

so here n = 20 and

A = 0.0015

and d∅ = B2 - B1 = 5.42 - 4.91

d∅ = 0.51 T and dt  at 1 sec

so  put all value

emf = -n A d∅ /dt

emf = -20 (0.0015) 0.51 / 1

emf = - 0.0153

so magnitude of the induced emf in the coil is 0.0153 V
