Answer:
Advantages : 1. Large demands of power supply are met easily by the nuclear power plants.
2. Unfavorable weather conditions do not effect its operation.
Disadvantages:
1. Disposal of nuclear waste will pose a serious problem locally for the town.
2. Establishment costs for a nuclear power plant are high compared to to thermal or hydro power plants.
Explanation:
Nuclear fuel used in a nuclear power plant is called the fission material . It is a radioactive element like isotopes of Uranium. The heat generated by the nuclear power plant can be removed efficiently if the reactor is built in a place that has water resources. Cooling towers can also be used to cool it. Operation costs are less compared to other types of power plants. If the nuclear waste can be handled without causing any hazards to human life, the town can definitely support the project.
Which law describes the magnetic field in a nonlinear wire?
A.
Faraday's law
B.
Gauss's law
C.
Ohm's law
D.
Ampère's law
Ampère's law is the proper law to describe the magnetic field in a nonlinear wire, relating the circulation of the magnetic field to the electric current passing through the circuit. Hence option D is correct.
The law that describes the magnetic field in a nonlinear wire is Ampère's law. Ampère's law states that the magnetic field around an electric current is proportional to the current, with each segment of current contributing to the magnetic field. Specifically, it describes how the circulation of the magnetic field, or the line integral around a closed curve (denoted as C), is related to the electric current passing through the surface (denoted as S) that is bounded by the curve C. Importantly, the surface can be of any shape, allowing for the application of Ampère's law to wires of arbitrary configurations, including nonlinear wires.
jose buys a new moped. He travels 3km south and then 4 km east. How far does he need to go to get back to where he started?
Answer: 5km by straight line, 7km by route.
Explanation:
The distance by route is 3km south and then 4km east, notice that the distances are perpendicular to each other, so the total distance traveled (by a straight line) is:
D = √((3km)^2 + (4km)^2) = √(9km^2 + 16km^2) = (√25)km = 5km
So the distance by a straight line that he needs to go back to where he started is 5km, and if he wants to get back by route, he must do 4km to the west and then 3km to the north, so a total of 7km

A 1.0 kg book is at rest on a table top diagram the forces acting on the book
Answer:
In the diagram attached, we will be able to see that the total force [tex]F[/tex] acting on the book is zero, according to the First Newton law, which states that an object is in equilibrium is the total force exerted on it is zero:
[tex]F=F_{T}-W=0[/tex] (1)
Which is the same as:
[tex]F_{T}=W[/tex] (2)
Where [tex]W[/tex] is the weight of the book, which is the product of the mass [tex]m[/tex] of the book and the gravity acceleration [tex]g[/tex]:
[tex]W=mg[/tex] (3)
Being [tex]m=1.0kg[/tex] and [tex]9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the weight of the book is:
[tex]W=(1.0kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})[/tex]
[tex]W=9.8N[/tex] (4)
Then, equation (2) means that the force [tex]W[/tex] due to the weight acting on the book is the same in magnitude but in opposite direction to the force [tex]F_{T}[/tex] the table exerts on the book, which is in accordance with the third Newton law of action and reaction.
A spring with a spring constant value of 2500 is compressed 32 cm. A 1.5-kg rock is placed on top of it, then the spring is released. Approximately how high will the rock rise? 9 m 17 m 27 m 85 m
Answer:
9 m
Explanation:
The elastic potential energy initially stored in the spring is given by:
[tex]U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2[/tex]
where
k = 2500 N/m is the spring constant
x = 32 cm = 0.32 m is the compression of the spring
Substituting:
[tex]U=\frac{1}{2}(2500 N/m)(0.32 m)^2=128 J[/tex]
Due to the law of conservation of energy, when the spring is released all this energy is converted into kinetic energy of the rock, which starts moving upward. As the rock reaches its maximum height, all the energy has been converted into gravitational potential energy:
[tex]U=mgh[/tex]
where
m = 1.5 kg is the rock's mass
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration
h = ? is the maximum height reached by the rock
Using U=128 J, we find h:
[tex]h=\frac{U}{mg}=\frac{128 J}{(1.5 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=8.7 m \sim 9 m[/tex]
Answer:
9m
Explanation:

A spring with k = 500 N/m stores 704 J. How far is it extended from the equilibrium position
Given that:
k = 500 n/m,
work (W) = 704 J
spring extension (x) = ?
we know that,
Work = (1/2) k x²
704 = (1/2) × 500 × x²
x = 1.67 m
A spring stretched for 1.67 m distance.
A Level Physics. Momentum questions.
kinematic equation used, g=10m/s/s approx
(a) 39.6 m/s and 30.7 m/s
Explanation:
Use the formula for speed as a function of distance made in a uniformly decelerated motion:
[tex]v_s^2 = v_0^2 -2sa[/tex]
with v_s the instantaneous speed at distance s and v_0 the initial speed (right after the explosion). "a" is the acceleration due to friction force, with negative sign in front of that term reflecting the fact the friction force acts against the direction of the motion. The scene after the explosion implies the fragments have come to a halt with the respective distances shown in the figure, i.e., for each fragment:
[tex]0 = v_0^2 -2sa[/tex]
and the initial speed v_0 remains to be determined:
[tex]v_0=\sqrt{2sa}[/tex]
The deceleration "a" due to friction can be found using the information we are given: the mass of a fragment and the coefficient of dynamic friction of 0.4:
[tex]F_{friction} = \mu\cdot m\cdot g \implies a = \mu\cdot g = 0.4\cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=3.92\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]
So the initial velocities just after the explosion, as implied by the distances of 200m (v01) and 120m (v02) are, respectively:
[tex]v_{01}=\sqrt{2\cdot200m\cdot 3.92\frac{m}{s^2}}=39.6\frac{m}{s}\\v_{02}=\sqrt{2\cdot120m\cdot 3.92\frac{m}{s^2}}=30.7\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
(b) The speed of the third fragment is 31.7 m/s
Explanation:
Use the law of conservation of the momentum. At the time of the explosion there were three fragments. For two of them we have determined the initial speed in (a). Now we know that the total momentum of the system (container) right before the fragments were set into motion was 0. The total of the moment vectors (magnitudes with their directions) should still be 0 right after the explosion. Given the angle between the paths of fragment 0.5kg and 1kg, the total vector of their momentum can be calculated
[tex]\overline{p}_{12} = m_1 \overline{v}_1 +m_2\overline{v}_2\\[/tex]
and from the conservation law we know that the momentum of the third piece must be
[tex]\overline{p}_3=-\overline{p}_{12}[/tex]
in particular, its magnitude will be same as the magnitude of the resultant vector, counteracting (at an angle 180 degrees from the resultant). This will eventually allow us to determine the speed of the third fragment. The magnitudes are:
[tex] |\overline{p}_{1}| = 0.5kg\cdot 39.6 \frac{m}{s} = 19.8 kg\frac{m}{s}\\|\overline{p}_{2}|=1.0kg\cdot 30.7\frac{m}{s}=30.7kg\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
and the resulting moment:
[tex] |\overline{p}_{12}| = \sqrt{|\overline{p}_1|^2+|\overline{p}_2|^2+2|\overline{p}_1||\overline{p}_2|\cos 40^\circ}=47.6 kg\frac{m}{s}=|\overline{p}_3|[/tex]
and so the speed of the third fragment is
[tex]v_{03} = \frac{|\overline{p}_3|}{1.5kg}=\frac{47.6kg\frac{m}{s}}{1.5kg}=31.7\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
(c) The total kinetic energy is 1617 Joules
Explanation:
[tex]E_k = \frac{1}{2}\sum_{i=1}^3 m_i v_{0i}^2 = 0.5\cdot(0.5\cdot 39.6^2+1\cdot 30.7^2+1.5\cdot 31.7^2)kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}=1617.0J[/tex]
(d) The area will be proportional to the fourth power of the initial velocities.
Explanation:
Consider the area of a circle with radius equal to the distance a fragment traveled. We can choose a fragment with largest such distance or choose the average of the areas for each fragment, or another geometric measure, however, this choice won't affect the qualitative answer.
The distance of a fragment "i" traveled as a function of the initial speed is
[tex]s_i = \frac{v_{0i}^2}{2a}[/tex]
The circular area is then
[tex]A_i = \pi(\frac{v_{0i}^2}{2a})^2\implies A_i \propto v_{0i}^4[/tex]
The area due to a fragment with initial velocity is proportional to the fourth power of that velocity. This can be generalized to all fragments by assuming a common factor amplifying the velocities. Such factor will also show up in the fourth power in the area formula above, justifying the answer: the effect of an amplification of the initial speed has a fourth-power effect on the area of spread.
True or false: Balanced forces can change an object's direction?
The statement is false. Balanced forces can NOT change the speed OR direction of an object's motion. (See Newton's #1 law of motion.)
Answer:
False
Explanation:
As per Newton's first law of motion, an object will not change its state of motion until an external unbalanced force is applied on it.
If a balanced force is applied on an object there will be no change in state of motion. Take for example a box. One person moves it to left with force F and another person moves it to the right with same force F. The box will not move. But if the two forces are not equal then a net force will be acting on the box and it will move and its direction will be changed.
What must happen to the temperature of a material for thermal expansion to occur.
Thermal expansion occurs when the temperature of a material increases, leading to greater kinetic energy and separation between atoms, causing the material to expand in all dimensions.
For thermal expansion to occur in a material, the temperature of that material must increase. This increase in temperature results in an increase in the kinetic energy of the material's atoms or molecules. As discussed in the Kinetic Theory, in a solid, this kinetic energy manifests as small, rapid vibrations which cause atoms to push neighboring atoms or molecules slightly farther apart from each other.
An increase in the average separation between particles translates into an expansion of the material in all dimensions. This behavior is observed in everyday phenomena, such as the buckling of railroad tracks due to thermal expansion. The degree to which a material expands in response to temperature change can be quantified by its coefficient of thermal expansion, which generally varies with temperature.
determine which of the following must change when pitch gets higher a.amplitude b.frequency c.wavelength d.intensity e.speed of sound waves
Higher pitch means higher frequency.
But higher frequency also means shorter wavelength, because the product of (frequency) x (wavelength) is the wave-speed, so it doesn't change.
So (b) and (c) must both change.
Answer:
Th Correct Answer is C
Explanation:
Changing Pitch
The four characteristics of the series that influence its frequency are density, diameter, tension, and length. These characteristics are illustrated below: While the length of a sequence is modified, it will reverberate with a distinct wavelength. Lower strings have a greater frequency and therefore more powerful pitch.Put these different types of radiation in order from MOST to LEAST penetrating.

A person weighing 490N stands on a scale in an elevator. What does the scale read (normal force) when the elevator rises at a constant velocity of 5 m/s?
Answer:
490 N
Explanation:
The elevator is rising at constant velocity: this means the acceleration of the system is zero, so according to Newton's second law, the net force on the system is also zero:
[tex]F_{net} = ma =0[/tex]
There are two forces acting on the person standing on the scale:
- its weight, downward, whose magnitude is W=490 N
- The normal force of the scale on the person, N, which is upward
Since the net force must be zero, we have:
[tex]W-N=0[/tex]
From which we find the normal force:
[tex]N=W=490 N[/tex]
Edson exercises in sets that are each t minutes long. He does 6 sets of push-ups, 3 sets of pull-ups, and 4 sets of sit-ups. Use an expression to represent the time it takes Edson to exercise as the sum of three different terms. Simplify the expression. Enter your answer in the box. The time it takes Edison to exercise is equal to t.
edson takes 130 minutes of exersise
step by step answer:
10 x 13 = 130
Answer:
The expression would be 13t.Explanation:
We know that:
Each set takes t minutes to be done.Edson does three types of exercises with different sets: 6, 3 and 4.Basically, we have to multiply each set by t minutes.
We have:
6 sets of push-ups: t + t + t + t + t + t = 6t3 sets of pull-ups: t + t + t = 3t4 sets of sit-ups: t + t + t + t = 4tThe total amount of time considering all sets is 6t + 3t + 4t = 13t. In other words, Edson did 13 sets, if one set takes t minutes, then the 13 sets takes 13t minutes.

cosα=vₓ/v=v₀/v=>v=v₀/cosα=24/cos39°=24/0,77=31.16 m/s
Ec=mv²/2=2*31.16²/2=971.47 J=>Ec≈0.97 kJ
5. Where would a roller coaster have the greatest potential energy? A. at the top of a hill B. halfway up the hill C. halfway down the hill D. at the bottom of the hill
A. at the top of a hill
Final answer:
The roller coaster would have the greatest potential energy at the top of a hill, as potential energy is greatest at the highest point. Option A
Explanation:
The roller coaster would have the greatest potential energy at the top of a hill (option A). At the top of the hill, the roller coaster has the most potential energy because it is at the highest point and has the greatest ability to do work.
As the roller coaster goes down the hill, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.
In terms of energy, potential energy is at its maximum at the top of the hill and decreases as the roller coaster moves down, while kinetic energy is at its minimum at the top of the hill and increases as the roller coaster gains speed. Option A
A boy throws a water balloon at his friend. If the work done on the balloon is 20j and it has a mass of 1kg what is the speed of the balloon
Answer:
The speed of of the balloon is about 6.32 m/s
Explanation:
Assuming all of the work done is transformed into the balloon's kinetic energy, we can use the formula for the kinetic energy to answer the question:
[tex]E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\20J = \frac{1}{2}1kg\cdot v^2\implies v=\pm\sqrt{40\frac{m^2}{s^2}}\approx\pm6.32\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
Speed is the absolute value of velocity, so the speed of the balloon is about 6.32 m/s

A 1500.0 kg car hits a brick wall with a force of 60.0 N in 1.75 seconds. What is the change in the momentum of the car?
Answer:
Change in the momentum of the car = 105 kgm/s
Explanation:
We have the Newton's second law, that is rate of change of momentum is force.
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt}=F\\\\\frac{mv-mu}{dt}=F\\\\mv-mu=Fdt[/tex]
That is rate of change of momentum is impulse.
Here we need to find rate of change of momentum = Fdt
dP = Fdt
dP = 60 x 1.75 = 105 kgm/s
Change in the momentum of the car = 105 kgm/s

The history of Sir Isaac Newton’s study of gravity does which of the following?
A. Illustrates how a theory becomes a law
B. Provides an example of a theory that has been discredited
C. Demonstrates the importance of gravity in marine science
D. Shows that theories have long been an important part of science
A. Illustrates how a theory becomes a law
Answer:
A. Illustrates how a theory becomes a law
Explanation:
Newtons studied about the gravity for a very long time and proposed theory about it.
Later on, based on his theories comes the gravitational law. His theory were based on various assumptions and examples that he related to explain the structure of universe.
His work shows how theories can become laws which are universally obeyed.
Differentiate between the factor(s) that affect inertia and momentum.
Answer:
Inertia relates directly to an object's mass. It is its inherent property and expresses how much force is needed to bring the object to a certain level of acceleration. It is the sole factor.
Momentum relates proportionally to two factors: mass and velocity. As such, momentum is not an inherent property of an object but a measure dependent on it current velocity, in addition to its mass.
Answer:
Inertia relates directly to an object's mass. It is its inherent property and expresses how much force is needed to bring the object to a certain level of acceleration. It is the sole factor.
What is an example of potential energy to kinetic energy?
Potential energy is the store she energy from an object this could include rubber bands. Kinetic energy is the energy that deals with motion a good example is a person running
Hello There!
Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object. Kinetic energy involves motion so an object that has potential energy turns into kinetic energy.
An example could be a roller coaster going up a hill and it's building potential energy so when it goes down the hill, the potential energy will turn into kinetic energy.
write an word problem about perimeter
The word problem is about finding the dimensions of a garden using a given amount of fencing material, applying the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, and considering that the length is twice the width.
Imagine you have a small garden in the shape of a rectangle. The length of the garden is twice its width. You want to put a fence around the entire garden to keep the rabbits out. If you have 30 meters of fencing material available, what are the dimensions of your garden?
To solve this problem, we need to set up an equation using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, which is P = 2l + 2w, where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width. Since the length is twice the width, we can express the length as l = 2w. Substituting this into the perimeter formula gives us P = 2(2w) + 2w, which simplifies to P = 6w. Knowing the total perimeter is 30 meters, we can find the width using 30 = 6w, which yields w = 5 meters. The length, being twice the width, is then l = 10 meters.
