Brian is speaking to you and a group of friends. he explains that nuclear power plants are essentially nuclear bombs waiting to explode. this is very worrisome to your friends. which statement is best suited to discredit brian and put your friends at ease? select all that apply. -nuclear power plants and nuclear bombs both use nuclear fission to generate energy, but a nuclear power plant very precisely controls the intensity of the reaction while a nuclear bomb releases the energy in one big explosion. -nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion to generate energy, but a nuclear bomb relies on nuclear fission. since, their reactants differ, their reactions differ. -nuclear power plants have never exploded in their 60 year history. -you agree with brian's statement.

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

It is reasonable to assume that the bulk modulus of blood is about the same as that of water (2.2 gpa). as one goes deeper and deeper in the ocean, the pressure increases by 10000 pa for every meter below the surface. if a diver goes down 80.0 m in the ocean, by how much does each cubic centimeter of her blood change in volume? give the answer in cubic centimeters (actually one cubic centimeter equals one milliliter).
