b. depletes natural resources
c. hazardous wastes
d. potential reactor accident
e. water pollution

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: a. air pollution

c. hazardous wastes

d. potential reactor accident

e. water pollution

A nuclear energy is produced in a thermal power plant. A nuclear energy is produced in a nuclear reactor. In nuclear reactor nuclear fission reactions takes place in which an atoms absorbs energy from radiations and undergo fission and produces energy in the form of high intensity radiations along with heat. Although the fission reactions takes place in a nuclear reactor in a controlled way so that the radiation may not leak out from the reactor. The accidentally leak out radiations or explosion or bursting of the reactor due to uncontrolled thermal energy production can result in air pollution as the leak out air will cause bursting effects which will contaminate the air.

The nuclear waste are radioactive and are non-biodegradable these wastes are disposed off deep in geospheres and in water. They have potential to contaminate both land and water. Radioactive wastes can cause mutations in the genome of the organisms exposed to these wastes which generate deadly diseases and disorders.  Therefore, these wastes are hazardous.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer: Hazardous wastes and potential reactor accident.

using kepler's 3rd law and newton's law of universal gravitation, find the period of revolution p of the planet as it moves around the sun. assume that the mass of the planet is much smaller than the mass of the sun.

Answers

As we all know that Kepler's third law states the square of the period is proportional to the cube of the average distance. Some of the part of the equation are just mere constants, and they are very vital.

After deriving the equation, we can get the formula.

T = sqrt { 4 * PI^2 /(GM) * [(R1 + R2)/2]^3 }
