Answer:

doughnut-shaped chamber called the tokamak. This is where the fusion reactions take place, within hot plasma containing deuterium and tritium atoms.

The shape of JET experimental fusion reactor is the 'D-shaped' vacuum chamber.

<u>Explanation: </u>

JET, “Joint European Torus” is World's biggest magnetically compact plasma physics experiment, in Oxfordshire, UK. The tokamak design paved way to the future nuclear fusion grid energy.

JET was the first tokamaks designed to use this D-shaped chamber. The initial construction of this chamber was purely based on safety factor, but later it was noted that the system was built mechanically to reduce the net force across the chamber which forces the torus towards middle of major axis.

To support the forces, magnets around the chamber should be curved at top and bottom and less on inside to support the acting forces leads to oval shaped chamber. The D shape of the reactor has the dimension of about 2.5 meters in width and 4.2 meters in height with the total of 100 cubic meters of volume for the plasma.

For an object starting from rest and accelerating with constant acceleration, distance traveled is proportional to the square of
natali 33 [55]

The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in the form of:

d = k t^2

where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs / s^2

 

<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t = 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>

2 = k (2)^2

k = 2 / 4

k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2

The equation becomes:

d = 0.5 t^2

 

Now solving for d when t = 4:

d = 0.5 (4)^2

d = 0.5 * 16

<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m

The rotational speeds of four generators are listed in RPM (revolutions per minute). Arrange the generators in order based on th
artcher [175]

with the same generator, so the only factor for producing the slectric field is only the speed. The faster the rotational speed of the generator the greater it produce electric field. So the sequence is 3000 rpm < 3200 rpm < 3400 rpm < 3600 rpm

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

Since the two waves have equal amplitudes, if the crest of one wave
meets the trough of the other one, they'll add to produce a level of zero
at that location.
