Answer:

option (D)

Explanation:

It is controlled by the amount of neutrons available.

The rate of fission of heavy element is controlled by the number the number of neutrons. in the fission reaction of Uranium - 235, when one neutron is bombarded on one Uranium 235, three neutrons, small elements along with lot of energy is produced. Now three neutrons bombard three Uranium 235 atoms so that the lot of amount of energy is liberated. it is called uncontrolled chain reaction.

When the number of neutrons are absorbed and only one neutron is available for fission, then energy is in controlled manner and it is called controlled fission reaction. In this reaction, controlled amount of energy is released.

A train slows from 60m/s to 20m/s in 50s
Dovator [93]

Answer:

a = -4/5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s

a = -40 m/s / 50 s

a = -4/5 m/s^2

hope this helps! <3

Examine the symbols below:
iris [78.8K]

Answer: Symbol A

Explanation:

The four symbols described here represent:

- Symbol A shows two dots and a line draw from one not connected to the other.  --> this is an open switch. A switch is component of a circuit that is used to open/close the circuit in order to interrupt/allow the flow of current through the circuit. In this case, the switch is open, since the line does not connect the second dot.

- Symbol B shows two dots and a line draw from one connected to the other.  --> this is the symbol used to represent the switch when it is closed, so it is a closed switch.

- Symbol C shows vertical lines in the pattern long, short, long, and short with a plus and minus symbol on it. --> this symbol represents a battery, which consists of two or more cells and provides the electromotive force that pushes the electrons along the circuit.

Therefore, the correct symbol representing the open switch is

Symbol A
