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.

Answer:

Disadvantages of nuclear energy include the high cost of building a power plant and safety concerns about the operation of the plant and disposal of spent fuel rods.

Explanation:

Hope this helps.

does increasing the frequency of a wave also increase its wavelength if not how are these quantities related​
Aleks [24]

Answer: Increasing the frequency does not increase the wavelength. They are inversely related.

Explanation:

As wavelength increases, frequency decreases. If you look at a transverse wave and it has a long wavelength, there only a few waves produce. Which means there is less frequency produced. So as wavelength increases, frequency decreases. The other way around can work to. As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. They are inversely related.

These spectra are from the same element. Which is an emission spectrum, which an absorption spectrum?
RSB [31]

Answer:

D. Top is emission; bottom absorption.

Explanation:

Emission and spectrum of elements are due to the element absorbing or emitting wavelength of e-m energy. Elementary particles of elements can absorb energy from a ground state to enter an excited state, creating an absorption spectrum, or they can lose energy and fall back to a lower energy state, creating an emission spectrum. A simple rule to differentiate between an emission and an absorption spectrum is that: "all absorbed wavelength is emitted, but not all emitted wavelength is absorbed."

From the image, the lines indicates wavelengths. We can see that all of the wavelengths of the bottom absorption spectrum coincides with some of the wavelength of the upper emission wavelengths.
