Question:

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?

Answer:

Disadvantages of Nuclear Power

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.

Explain Why a flying aeroplane has more Kinetic Energy than a flying insect?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Why do insects fly so high?

Because the angle of attack is so high, a lot of momentum is transferred downward into the flow. These two features create a large amount of lift force as well as some additional drag. The important feature, however, is the lift.

Why an Aeroplane flying has kinetic  

A flying aeroplane has potential energy has it flies above the ground level. And since the aeroplane is flying motion is associated with it and thus possesses kinetic energy. Hence a flying aeroplane has both potential and kinetic energ

A gas is compressed at constant temperature from a volume of 5.68 L to a volume of 2.35 L by an external pressure of 732 torr. C
Vlada [557]

Answer: The work done in J is 324

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of work done for an isothermal process is given by the equation:

W=-P\Delta V=-P(V_2-V_1)

W = amount of work done = ?

P = pressure = 732 torr = 0.96 atm    (760torr =1atm)

V_1 = initial volume = 5.68 L

V_2 = final volume = 2.35  L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

W=-0.96atm\times (2.35-5.68)L=3.20L.atm

To convert this into joules, we use the conversion factor:

1L.atm=101.33J

So, 3.20L.atm=3.20\times 101.3=324J

The positive sign indicates the work is done on the system

Hence, the work done for the given process is 324 J
