Explain two advantages and disadvantages of using energy created by nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
alisha [4.7K]
A. NUCLEAR FUSION  is the combination of two atomic nuclei in order to create an atom that in turn creates energy.

A.1 DISADVANTAGES

1. Expensive Construction Costs-
To be able to put up such powerhouse, it needs ostentatious financial support to create a facility and gather experts and scientists.

2. Energy Input vs Energy Output- 
To be able to fuse the two nuclei together, there is a great demand for high levels of heat. Thus to be able to produce large amount of energy, it also needs a large amount of thermal energy which is not reasonable enough.

A.2 ADVANTAGES

1. Barely Any Waste- 
the only by product of nuclear fusion is helium and it is non toxic. This does not cause any harm to the environment and to people.

2. Unlimited Fuel- 
All of the components needed to produce energy can be made. Deuterium, which is the main ingredient needed to supply a truly unlimited and sustainable energy supply, can be distilled from the sea water.


B. NUCLEAR FISSION- refers to the process of splitting of the nucleus of an atom into several smaller particles to produce free neutrons and lighter elements.

B.1 DISADVANTAGES

1. It can be dangerous for employees- 
Radiation which is one of the byproducts of nuclear fission can be harmful to the personnel working within its premises.

2. It has high initial expenses- 
Nuclear power plants needs a specialized equipment for it to become functional. 

B.2 ADVANTAGES


1. It helps minimize environmental pollution- 
Nuclear power plants can produce large amounts of energy while consuming relatively minimal amount of fossil fuel. To explain further, consumption and usage of fossil fuel poses adverse effect in the environment because it can emit carbon dioxide and other harmful chemicals.

2. It helps reduce global warming- If the world would opt for nuclear fission, then there would be less greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. This in turn would mitigate global warming.

Which is one characteristic of hurricanes?
siniylev [52]

Given the following choices, determine which best suits as a characteristic of a hurricane.

Answer Choices:

A. Hurricanes occur mostly inland

B. Hurricanes create widespread damage

C. Hurricanes can only last for a short amount of time

D. Hurricanes gain strength after passing overland

Best Answer: B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage.

Reason: A would not be correct since it is more of a variable, due to the fact that hurricanes usually begin near the coastlines, hurricanes are in fact capable of moving inland for atleast 100 miles before it dies down to a tropical storm or depression.

C is not correct since hurricanes can last up to a whole week which is approximately 168 hours.

D is not correct since it is another variable in which hurricanes can decrease in strength if it comes into contact with cool and dry air which is the opposite of warm and moist which it needs in order to occur.

Therefore, the best choice is B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage, hurricanes can unleash a staggering arsenal of mother nature's strength and the most damage a hurricane has caused can go up to 125 billion USD in damages.

Assume a gasoline is isooctane, which has a density of 0.692 g/ml. What is the mass of 3.8 gal of the gasoline (1 gal = 3.78 l)?
sveticcg [70]

Density is the ratio of mass to the volume.

The mathematical expression is given as:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Now, density of isooctane = 0.692 g/mL

Volume  = 3.8 gal

Since, 1 gallon = 3.78 L

So, 3.8 gal = 3.78 L\times 3.8

= 14.364 L

As, 1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore, 14.364 L= 14.364 L\times 1000 mL

Volume in mL = 14364 mL

Put the values,

0.692 g/mL=\frac{mass}{14364 mL}

m = 0.692 g/mL\times 14364 mL

= 9939.888 g

Hence, mass of 3.8 gal of the gasoline is 9939.888 g.
