the natural radioactivity is done by(controlling the nuclear energy-no ability to control the nuclear energy-both of them)​

Physics

just olya [345]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Nuclear power plants are fueled by uranium, which emits radioactive substances. Most of these substances are trapped in uranium fuel pellets or in sealed metal fuel rods. However, small amounts of these radioactive substances (mostly gases) become mixed with the water that is used to cool the reactor.

Which of the following involve an increase in the entropy of the system under consideration? a. melting of a solid b. evaporatio
Mama L [17]

Explanation:

Since, entropy is the measure of degree of randomness. So, more randomly the molecules of a substance are moving more will be its entropy.

  • For example, when a solid melts then it means heat is absorbed by it due to which its molecules have gained energy. As a result, they collide with each other and hence, entropy will increase.
  • Evaporation of a liquid will also cause the liquid to change its state from liquid to gas. This means molecules will go far away from each other leading to an increase in the entropy.
  • Sublimation is a process of conversion of a solid into gaseous phase without going through liquid phase. So, in this case also entropy will increase due to gain in energy by the molecules of a solid.
  • In freezing, molecules of a substance come closer to each other and acquire less energy. Hence, entropy decreases.
  • Mixing is a process of combining two or more substances physically with each other. This leads to increase in entropy of a substance.
  • In separation molecules are separated from each other leading to a decrease in energy. Hence, entropy will also decrease.
  • Diffusion is a process in which molecules are able to rapidly move from one place to another. Hence, entropy increases when diffusion takes place.

Thus, we can conclude that melting of a solid, evaporation of a liquid, sublimation, mixing and diffusion involve an increase in the entropy of the system under consideration.

When applying a horizontal force of 30N, an object of mass 6 kg accelerates at 4m/s2. The force of friction on the surface must
Rus_ich [418]
Using Newton's Second Law, F = ma, where F is the net force

So the net force is:

F = (6kg)(4m/s^2) = 24N

Since you are applying a horizontal force of 30N, we can find the force of friction by the difference of the net force and the applied force.

30N-24N = 6N

F_{f} = 6N

A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 17.0° and its length is find the speed of the block as it
SashulF [63]

Answer:

2.4\sqrt{L} where L is the length of the ramp

Explanation:

Let L (m) be the length of the ramp, and g = 9.81 m/s2 be the gravitational acceleration acting downward. This g vector can be split into 2 components: parallel and perpendicular to the ramp.

The parallel component would have a magnitude of

gsin\theta = 9.81 sin17^o = 2.87 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to find out the final velocity of the book after sliding L m:

v^2 - v_0^2 = 2a\Delta s

where v m/s is the final velocity, v_0 = 0m/s is the initial velocity when it starts from rest, a = 2.87 m/s2 is the acceleration, and \Delta s = L is the distance traveled:

v^2 - 0 = 2*2.87*L

v = \sqrt{5.74L} = 2.4\sqrt{L}
