A nuclear power plant generates a total of 3 GW of power at an efficiency of 33%. The nuclear reactor has a recoverable energy per fission of 210 MeV. Approximately 65% of the plant's power comes from fissions in 235U, the remainder from fissions in plutonium, 239Pu. calculate: (a) the net electric power output, (b) the rate of fission events (per second) in the reactor core, (c) the mass of 235U used up in one year (hint: every fission event consumes one 235U nucleus and in the reactor core about 1.0 (1020) nuclei of U 235 are consumed every second. (d) If the plant were operated at full power for 1 year, how many

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?

Scientists follow specific processes in order to determine valid explanations and conclusions from observations. david observed strange lights in the sky above his home outside of roswell, new mexico. the only explanation that makes sense to him is that there are ufos in the area. what should david do next to verify his explanation?
