Answer:

Nuclear reactors are the heart of a nuclear power plant. They contain and control nuclear chain reactions that produce heat through a physical process called fission. That heat is used to make steam that spins a turbine to create electricity.

Answer:

Hi myself Shrushtee.

Explanation:

The fuse is connected to the live wire so that the appliance will not become charged (have a potential difference of 230 V) after the fuse has melted due to excessive current. Fuses must be fitted onto the live wire so that when it blows, it will disconnect (isolate) the appliance from the high voltage live wire.

A crate slides down a ramp that makes a 20∘ angle with the ground. to keep the crate from sliding too fast, paige pushes back on
shutvik [7]
The solution is:
Paige's force is (somewhat) against the direction of motion: Work = F * d Where F is the force; andd is the distance
Our f is 64 N and our distance is 20 and -3.6Plugging that in our equation will give us:
= 64N * cos20º * -3.6m = -217 J

a u tube contains a liquid of an unknown density an oil of density is poured into the right arm of the tube until the oil column
scoray [572]

Answer:

The answer is "1155\ \frac{kg}{m^3}"

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

p = p_0 + ?gh

pi = pressure only at two liquids' devices

PA = pressure atmosphere.

1 = oil density

2 = uncertain fluid density

h_1 = 11 \ cm\\\\h_2= 3 \ cm

The pressures would be proportional to the quantity 11-3 = 8 cm from below the surface at the interface between both the oil and the liquid.

\to p_A + ?2g(h_1 - h_2) = p_A + ? 1gh_1\\\\\to ?2 = \frac{?1h_1}{(h_1 - h_2)} \\\\

       = \frac{840 \frac{kg}{m^3}}{\frac{11}{8}} \\\\= 1155\ \frac{kg}{m^3}

Explain why the boiling point of a liquid varies with atmospheric pressure
OLEGan [10]
The boiling point of water, or any liquid, varies according to the surrounding atmospheric pressure. A liquid boils, or begins turning to vapor, when its internal vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.
