Explanation:
Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.
Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.
Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.
As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.
Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. False
The force you apply on crate is equal and opposite to the force that crate applies on you by Newton's third law of motion.
The force must over come the static frictional force between the crate and the floor.
2. True
The object can move along another direction than the direction of net force. For example, when a car slows down, the net force is opposite to the direction of motion.
3. True
An object moving at constant velocity has zero net force acting on it.
4. False
An object at rest has forces acting on it but the summation of all the forces is zero i.e. the net force is zero.
72km/hr = 72000m/3600seconds(we convert km/hr to m/s
= 20m/s
Velocity= 20m/s
In 4seconds,distance covered=20x4= 80m
Therefore,an accident occurs because in 4seconds, the car would have moved past 20m
GPE= weight•height= 15 N• 0.22meter= 3.3 Joules
