Atoms are split at power plant to create electricity*
Rudiy27

Answer:

B. Nuclear to Electrical

Explanation:

Atoms are split at power plants to create electricity. The energy conversion in this process is from nuclear to electrical energy.

  • When atoms are split, nuclear energy is released.
  • Some part of the mass of the atom is converted to energy.
  • The nuclear energy released is expressed as heat energy.
  • This energy is used to heat water in boilers when produces steam that are used to drive the movement of turbines.
  • This in turn generates electricity.

If a rock climber accidentally drops a 77.5-g piton from a height of 215 meters, what would its speed be just before striking th
Viktor [21]

Let us list out what we know from the question.

Initial Velocity V_{i}  = 0 since the piton is 'dropped'.

Vertical Displacement of the piton D = 215 m

Acceleration due to gravity a = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Final Velocity V_{f} = ?

Using the equation, V^{2} _{f} = V^{2} _{i}  + 2aD and plugging in the known values, we get

V^{2} _{f}  = 0^{2}  + 2(9.8)(215)

Simplifying by taking square-root on both sides gives us V_{f} =  64.915 m/s

Thus, the speed of the piton just before striking the ground is 65 m/s.
