Answer:

B. Nuclear fusion generates less radioactive waste than nuclear fission.

Explanation:

There are basically two types of nuclear reaction nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fission one molecule breaks into two atoms and generate enormous energy and in nuclear fusion two atoms combined and form a molecule. In nuclear fusion energy released is more than nuclear fission. And waste is generated more in case of nuclear fission.

The correct option is B.
Nuclear fission and fusion are two different types of nuclear reactions, through which energy may be obtained. Nuclear fission involves the splitting of a molecule into two different part in order to generate energy while nuclear fusion reaction involves the joining together of two elements in other to form one product. Nuclear fission generate much radioactive waste than nuclear fusion. The radioactive waste that is obtainable during nuclear fusion is less than 1% of that produce by nuclear fission.

When jumping, a flea reaches a takeoff speed of 1.0 m/s over a distance of 0.47 mm .What is the flea's acceleration during the j
garri49 [273]
We can use kinematics here if we assume a constant acceleration (not realistic, but they want a single value answer, so it's implied). We know final velocity, vf, is 1.0 m/s, and we cover a distance, d, of 0.47mm or 0.00047 m (1m = 1000mm for conversion). We also can assume that the flea's initial velocity, vi, is 0 at the beginning of its jump. Using the equation vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad, we can solve for our acceleration, a. Like so: a = (vf^2 - vi^2)/2d = (1.0^2 - 0^2)/(2*0.00047) = 1,064 m/s^2, not bad for a flea!

A sharpening wheel is traveling at 5 rad/s, it slows down to rest in 30 seconds while sharpening an axe. What is its angular acc
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = 0.167 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Initial Angular velocity (w1) = 5 rad/s

Final Angular velocity (w2) = 0 rad/s

Time taken to change velocity from w1 to w2 = 30 seconds

Angular acceleration is equal to the change in angular velocity to the time taken for making thing change

Hence, Angular acceleration

\frac{w_2 -w_1}{t} \\\frac{5-0}{30}\\0.167rad/s^2

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Fc = 7.14N

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert everything to the same unit system:

m = 0.0031kg     R = 13.1cm * 1m / 100cm = 0.131m      

ω = 50000 rev/min * 1rev /( 2π rad ) * 1min / 60s = 132.63 rad/s

Now we can calculate centripetal force as:

Fc = m * \frac{V^2}{R} = m * \frac{(\omega*R)^2}{R}=m*R*\omega ^2

Replacing the values we get the answer:

Fc = 7.14N

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.
laiz [17]
This is very good conceptual question and can clear your doubts regarding work-energy theorem.
Whenever force is perpendicular to the direction of the motion, work done by that force is zero.
According to work-energy theorem,
Work done by all the force = change in kinetic energy.

here, work done = 0.
Therefore, 
0=change in kinetic energy
This means kinetic energy remains constant.
Hope this helps
