Answer:

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.

Two geological field teams are working in a remote area. A global positioning system (GPS) tracker at their base camp shows the

Masja [62]

Answer:

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 58.2

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 14.90 deg North of east

Explanation:

ASSUME Vector is R and makes angle A with +x-axis,

therefore component of vector R is

$R_x = Rcos A$

$R_y = Rsin A$

From above relation

Assuming base camp as the origin, location of 1st team is

$R_1 = 37 km$ away at 21 deg North of west (North of west is in 2nd quadrant, So x is -ve and y is positive)

$R_{1x} = -R_1*cos A_1 = -37*cos 21 deg = -34.54 km$

$R_{1y} = R_1*sin A_1 = 37*sin 21 deg = 13.25 km$

location of 2nd team is at

$R_2 = 32 km$ , at 38 deg East of North = 32 km, at 58 deg North of east (North of east is in 1st quadrant, So x and y both are +ve)

$R_{2x} = R_2*cos A_2 = 32*cos 58 deg = 16.95 km$

$R_{2y} = R_2*sin A_2 = 32*sin 58 deg = 27.13 km$

Now position of 2nd team with respect to 1st team will be given by:

$R_3 = R_2 - R_1$

$R_3 = (R_{2x} - R_{1x}) i + (R_{2y} - R_{1y}) j$

Using above values:

$R_3 = (16.95 - (-34.54)) i + (27.13 - 13.42) j$

$R_3 = 51.49 i + 13.71 j$

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$\left | R_3 \right | = \sqrt (51.49^2 +13.71^2)$

$\left | R_3 \right | = 53.28 km = 58.2 km$

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$Direction = tan^{-1} \frac{R_{3y}}{R_{3x}} = tan^{-1}[ \frac{13.71}{51.49}]$

Direction = 14.90 deg North of east

Tarzan (who has mass 80.0 kg) is running across the jungle floor with speed 7.00 m/s as

Lesechka [4]

We are given:

Mass of Tarzan before swinging = 80 kg

Mass of Tarzan when swinging = 80 + 15 = 95 kg

Velocity of Tarzan = 7 m/s

The height of the rock Tarzan's monkey is sitting on = 3 m

__________________________________________________________

Momentum of Tarzan before swinging:

We know that:

Momentum = Mass*Velocity

Momentum = 80 * 7

Momentum = 560 kg m/s

__________________________________________________________

Speed of Tarzan after grabbing the bananas:

The momentum of Tarzan will remain the same but his mass will increase

So, Since Momentum = New Mass* velocity

560 = 95 * v [where v is the velocity of Tarzan]

v = 5.9 m/s

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the Initial and Final KE and PE:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

Initial and Final KE:

We know that KE = 1/2*(mv²)

Initial KE:

Initial KE = 1/2*(mv²) [where v is the velocity after picking the bananas]

Initial KE = 1/2*(95*5.9²)

Initial KE = 1653.5 Joules

Final KE:

Final KE = 1/2*(mv²)

[where v is the velocity at the maximum point of the swing]

Since Tarzan will be at rest at the maximum point of the swing, v = 0 m/s

Final KE = 1/2*(95*0²)

Final KE = 0 Joules

Initial and Final PE:

We know that:

PE = mgh

[where g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height]

Initial PE:

Since the height of Tarzan from the ground was 0 m at the beginning of the swing, h = 0

Initial PE = 95*10*0

Initial PE = 0 Joules

Final PE:

Let the maximum height of Tarzan be h m

Final PE = 95*10*h

Final PE = 950(h)

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the maximum height Tarzan will reach:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

From the law of conservation of momentum, we know that:

Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE

Replacing the variables:

1653.5 + 0 = 0 + 950h

1653.5 = 950h

h = 1653.5/950 [dividing both sides by 950]

h = 1.74 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by Tarzan is 1.74 m

but since his monkey is sitting 3 m high, he will NOT be able to reach his monkey

Determine the total impedance of an LRC circuit connected to a 10.0- kHz, 725-V (rms) source if L = 36.00 mL, R = 10.00 kÎ©, and

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

10042.6 ohm

Explanation:

f = 10 kHz = 10000 Hz, L = 36 mH = 0.036 H, R = 10 kilo Ohm = 10000 ohm

C = 5 nF = 5 x 10^-9 F

XL = 2 x π x f x L

XL = 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 0.036 = 2260.8 ohm

Xc = 1 / ( 2 x π x f x C) = 1 / ( 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 5 x 10^-9)

Xc = 3184.7 ohm

Total impedance is Z.

Z^2 = R^2 + (XL - Xc)^2

Z^2 = 10000^2 + ( 2260.8 - 3184.7 )^2

Z = 10042.6 ohm
