    Chapter 19 Nuclear Energy 19.1 Energy in your life Almost everything around us uses electricity and in order to power these devices‚ we must generate it. To create electrical energy‚ we must create thermal energy. Several techniques include using coal‚ natural gas‚ or nuclear thermal to create heat. Once heat is created‚ it is used to vaporize water and use the steam to propel a piston which turns an electric generator. Alternative energy sources include wind‚ solar‚ and micro hydro. 19.2 Nuclear

    sample The second law states that the net force on an object is equal to the rate of change (that is‚ the derivative) of its linear momentum p in an inertial reference frame: [pic] The second law can also be stated in terms of an object’s acceleration. Since the law is valid only for constant-mass systems‚[16][17][18] the mass can be taken outside the differentiation operator by the constant factor rule in differentiation. Thus‚ [pic] where F is the net force applied

    1) A 4-kg mass moving with speed 2 m/s‚ and a 2-kg mass moving with a speed of 4 m/s‚ are gliding over a horizontal frictionless surface. Both objects encounter the same horizontal force‚ which directly opposes their motion‚ and are brought to rest by it. Which statement best describes their respective stopping distances? (A) The 4-kg mass travels twice as far as the 2-kg mass before stopping. (B) The 2-kg mass travels twice as far as the 4-kg mass before stopping. (C) Both masses travel the
