To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the described wavelength through frequency and speed. Mathematically it can be expressed as:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

Where,

$\lambda =$ Wavelength

f = Frequency

v = Velocity

Our values are given as,

$f = 2.8*10^3Hz$

$v = 340m/s \rightarrow$ Speed of sound

Keep in mind that we do not use the travel speed of the ambulance because we are in front of it. In case it approached or moved away we should use the concepts related to the Doppler effect:

Replacing we have,

$\lambda = \frac{340}{2.8*10^3}$

$\lambda = 0.1214m$

Therefore the frequency that you hear if you are standing in from of the ambulance is 0.1214m

A typical nuclear fission power plant produces about 1.00 GW of electrical power. Assume the plant has an overall efficiency of

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

mass consumed by 235U each day = 2 kg

Explanation:

electrical power produced = 1 GW = 1 × 10⁹ × (6.24151 × 10¹⁸ ) eV

= 6.24151× 10²¹ MeV/s

thermal energy = 0.420 * 250 = 105 MeV

$\dfrac{1 GW}{150 MeV}= \dfrac{6.24151\times 10^{21}}{105}$

= 5.94 × 10¹⁹ fission/second

=5.94 × 10¹⁹× 24 × 60 ×60)

= 5.13 × 10²⁴ fission/day

mu = 235.04393 × 1.660× 10 ⁻²⁷ = 390.1729× 10⁻²⁷ Kg

M = mu ×5.13 × 10²⁴

= 390.1729× 10⁻²⁷ ×5.13 × 10²⁴

M = 2 kg(approx.)

mass consumed by 235U each day = 2 kg
