The waste is dangerous because exposure to the waste could lead to a higher risk of cancer and genetic mutations to the baby of a person exposed to nuclear waste.

A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor that has a very small capacitance. what can we say about

Misha Larkins [42]

<span>A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor
that has a very small capacitance.

The capacitance of the series combination is slightly smaller than the
capacitance of the small capacitor. (choice-C)

The capacitance of a series combination is

1 / (1/A + 1/B + 1/C + 1/D + .....) .

If you wisk, fold, knead, and mash that expression for a while,
you find that for only two capacitors in series, (or 2 resistors or
two inductors in parallel), the combination is

(product of the 2 individuals) / (sum of the individuals) .

In this problem, we have a humongous one and a tiny one.
Let's call them 1000 and 1 .
Then the series combination is

(1000 x 1) / (1000 + 1)

= (1000) / (1001)

= 0.999 000 999 . . .

which is smaller than the smaller individual.

It'll always be that way. </span>

Describe the principle of conversation of energy:

exis [7]

Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.

Practical examples include:

- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy

- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy

- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc

4) A football player starts at the 40-yard line, and runs to the 25-yard line in 2 seconds.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

(a). Their speed during that run is 10 m/s.

(b). Their velocity is 6.86 m/s

(c). The final position is at 8.91 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

A football player starts at the 40-yard line, and runs to the 25-yard line in 2 seconds.

Suppose, the distance between 40 yard line and 25 yard line is 20 yard.

(a). We need to calculate their speed during that run

Using formula of speed

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

Where. d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{18.288}{2}$

$v=10\ m/s$ during that run

(b). We need to calculate their velocity

Using formula of speed

$v=\dfrac{\Delta d}{\Delta t}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{22.86-36.58}{2}$

$v=-6.86\ m/s$

Negative sign shows the direction of motion.

(c). If they kept running at that velocity for another 1.3 seconds,

We need to calculate the final position

Using formula of position

$d=vt$

Put the value into the formula

$d=6.86\times1.3$

$d=8.91\ m$

Hence, (a). Their speed during that run is 10 m/s.

(b). Their velocity is 6.86 m/s

(c). The final position is at 8.91 m.

Why are bathroom tiles usually rough

Aleks04 [339]

-- Bathroom tiles are usually cool, so water condenses on them
when you take a hot bath or shower in the room.

-- The natural result is that a smooth tile would become slippery,
exactly when you're walking around with wet feet and nothing on them ...
a dangerous situation.

-- In order to circumvent this safety hazard, the tiles in the bathroom
should be rough, especially on the floor.
