The production of electricity from fission nuclear reactions in power plants is regulated by controlling

Physics

marin [14]3 years ago

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.

The sum of all the forces acting on an <br> object is zero.
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Newton's first law states that when the vector sum of all forces acting on an object (the net force) is zero, the object is in equilibrium. If the object is initially at rest, it remains at rest. If it is initially in motion, it continues to move with constant velocity.

Answer: Different types of telescopes usually don't take simultaneous readings. Space is a dynamic system, so an image taken at one time is not necessarily the precise equivalent of an image of the same phenomena taken at a later time. And often, there is barely enough time for one kind of telescope to observe extremely short-lived phenomena like gamma-ray bursts. By the time other telescopes point to the object, it has grown too faint to be detected.

Explanation: Trust me

Find a glass jar with a screw-top metal lid. Close the lid snugly and put the jar into the refrigerator. Leave it there for abou
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The lid becomes tighter

It becomes tighter because metals have a lower heat capacity than glass meaning their temperature drops (or increases) much faster than glass for the same energy change. So in this example, the metal will contract faster than the glass causing it to be more tighter around the glass.
