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.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Al llegar a su equilibrio térmico ambas barran tendrán una temperatura de 53 grados centígrados.

Explanation:

Dado que una barra de aluminio que está a 78 grados centígrados entra en contacto con una barra de cobre de la misma longitud y área que esta a 28 grados centígrados, y posteriormente se lleva acabo la transferencia de energía entre ambas barras llegando a su equilibrio térmico, para determinar la temperatura a la que ambas barras llegarán se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

(78 + 28) / 2 = X

106 / 2 = X

53 = X

Por lo tanto, al llegar a su equilibrio térmico ambas barran tendrán una temperatura de 53 grados centígrados.

Calculate the energy gained by an ice block in the following experiment.
MAXImum [283]

The heat is exchanged when two different temperature objects come in contact. The energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the object.

A 7g block of ice was added to a coffee cup full of 103.4 grams of water. The water had an initial temperature T₁ = 24.5 C and a final temperature T₂ = 19.2 C after all the ice had melted.

Heat lost by water = Heat gained by ice

Qgain = ms(T₂ -T₁ )

Substituting the value for mass of water m =103.4 g= 0.1034 kg , specific heat of water s = 4.18 kJ/kg and temperature values, we get

Qgain = 0.1034 x 4.18 x (24.5 - 19.2)

Qgain = 2.3 Joules

Thus, the energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.

When a force is acting at axis of rotation,why torque is zero?
Vikki [24]

Explanation:

see, torque=force × perpendicular distance

...that perpendicular distance is between axis of rotation and the point where force acts... so in above's case perpendicular distance is zero... so the torque is zero!
