Does uranium use steam?

Physics
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Reactors use uranium for nuclear fuel. The uranium is processed into small ceramic pellets and stacked together onto sealed metal tubes called fuel rods. The heat created by fission turns the water into steam.

A 22.0 kg child slides down a slide that makes a 37.0° angle with the horizontal. (a) What is the magnitude of the normal force
patriot [66]

Answer:

(a) 172.185 N

(b) 53^{\circ}

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the child, m = 22.0 kg

Angle, \theta = 37.0^{\circ}

Now,

(a) The magnitude of the normal force exerted by the slide on the child:

F_{N} = mgcos\theta

F_{N} = 22\times 9.8cos37^{\circ} = 172.185\ N

Now,

(b) The angle from the horizontal at which the force is directed is:

90^{\circ} - 37^{\circ} = 53^{\circ}

A baseball bat hits a baseball with a force of 100 newtons. What is the force and its direction exerted by the ball on the bat?
Brut [27]

Answer:

The force exerted by the ball on the bat has a magnitude of 100 N and its direction is exactly opposite to that of the force exerted by the bat on the ball.

Explanation:

Recall that Newton's third law tells us that : "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Therefore if the bat acts on the ball with a force of 100 N, the ball acts on the bat with a similar magnitude of force (100 N) but direction opposite to the original force.

A cat falls from a tree (with zero initial velocity) at time t = 0. How far does the cat fall between t = 1 2 and t = 1 s? Use G
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

There is one mistake in the question.The Correct question is here

A cat falls from a tree (with zero initial velocity) at time t = 0. How far does the cat fall between t = 1/2 and t = 1 s? Use Galileo's formula v(t) = −9.8t m/s.

Answer:

y(1s) - y(1/2s) =  - 3.675 m  

The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.

Explanation:

Given data

time=1/2 sec to 1 sec

v(t)=-9.8t m/s

To find

Distance

Solution

As the acceleration as first derivative of velocity with respect to time  

So

acceleration(-g)=  dv/dt

Solve it

dv  =  a dt

dv =  -g dt

v - v₀  =  -gt

v=  dy/dt

dy  =  v dt

dy =  ( v₀ - gt ) dt

y(1s) - y(1/2s)  =  ( v₀ ) ( 1 - 1/2 ) - ( g/2 )[ ( t1)² -( t1/2s )² ]

y(1s) - y(1/2s)  = ( - 9.8/2 ) [ ( 1 )² - ( 1/2 )² ]

y1s - y1/2s  = ( - 4.9 m/s² ) ( 3/4 s² )

y(1s) - y(1/2s) =  - 3.675 m  

The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.

A spy camera is said to be able to read the numbers on a car's license plate. If the numbers on the plate are 4.30 cm apart, and
Maslowich

Answer:

D = 2.38 m

Explanation:

This exercise is a diffraction problem where we must be able to separate the license plate numbers, so we must use a criterion to know when two light sources are separated, let's use the Rayleigh criterion, according to this criterion two light sources are separated if The maximum diffraction of a point coincides with the first minimum of the second point, so we can use the diffraction equation for a slit

         a sin θ  = m λ

Where the first minimum occurs for m = 1, as in these experiments the angle is very small, we can approximate the sine to the angle

           θ = λ / a

Also when we use a circular aperture instead of slits, we must use polar coordinates, which introduce a numerical constant

           θ = 1.22 λ / D

Where D is the circular tightness

       

Let's apply this equation to our case

         D = 1.22 λ /  θ

To calculate the angles let's use trigonometry

         tan  θ = y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹  y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹ (4.30 10⁻² / 140 10³)

          θ = tan⁻¹ (3.07 10⁻⁷)

          θ = 3.07 10⁻⁷ rad

Let's calculate

        D = 1.22 600 10⁻⁹ / 3.07 10⁻⁷

        D = 2.38 m
