Cadmium rods are given in a nuclear reactor. Explain why?
What is Archimedes' principle? A body which is submerged in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equivalent in magnitude to the weight of the fluid which is displaced, and directed upward all along a line via the c
Drake equation (F. Drake; 1961): The method of estimating the number of intelligent, scientific species (that is, able to communicate with other species) in subsistence in our space. N
Describe in brief the concept of nuclear reaction?
Lumen: lm: The derived SI unit of luminous flux, stated as the luminous flux produced by a uniform point source of 1 cd releasing its luminous energy over a solid angle of 1 sr; it therefore has units of cd sr.
Avogadro's hypothesis (Count A. Avogadro; 1811): Equivalent volumes of all gases at similar temperature and pressure contain equivalent numbers of molecules. This is, in fact, true only for the ideal gases. <
Siemens: S (after E.W. von Siemens, 1816-1892): The derived SI unit of an electrical conductance equivalent to the conductance of an element which has a resistance of 1 O [ohm]; this has units of O-1.
Briefly state the definition of Pascal’s principle?
Weber: Wb (after W. Weber, 1804-1891): The derived SI unit of magnetic flux equivalent to the flux that, connecting a circuit of one turn, generates in it an electromotive force of 1 V as it is decreased to zero at a uniform rate in a period of 1 s; i
Mach number (E. Mach): It is the ratio of the speed of an object in a specified medium to the speed of sound in that medium.
