What property of radioactive nuclear waste makes it so difficult to dispose responsibility?

1 answer:

7 0

<span>Radioactive waste, as its name implies, is a source of radiation that can be harmful to living organisms. Therefore it needs to be disposed of very carefully in such a way that the radiation cannot reach human beings and other living organisms. One method to do this is to bury the waste in deep pits. </span>

A sheet of gold weighing 8.8 g and at a temperature of 10.5°C is placed flat on a sheet of iron weighing 19.5 g and at a tempera

Answer:

$T = 36.393\,^{\textdegree}C$

Explanation:

The contact between the sheet of gold and the sheet of iron allows a heat transfer until thermal equilibrium is done, which means that both sheets have the same temperature:

$-Q_{iron} = Q_{gold}$

$-(0.008\,kg)\cdot (452\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-54.4\,^{\textdegree}C) = (0.0195\,kg)\cdot (129\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-10.5\,^{\textdegree}C)$

$-(3.616\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C})\cdot (T-54.4\,^{\textdegree}C) = (2.515\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C})\cdot (T-10.5^{\textdegree}C)$

$-1.438\cdot (T - 54.4^{\textdegree}C) = T-10.5^{\textdegree}C$

$-1.438\cdot T +78.227^{\textdegree}C = T - 10.5^{\textdegree}C$

$2.438\cdot T = 88.727\,^{\textdegree}C$

The final temperature is:

$T = 36.393\,^{\textdegree}C$
