Directions: Place the following events describing the production of electrical energy from a nuclear fission reactor in the correct order. Write the numbers 1 (first) through 7 (last) in the spaces provided. a. Steam produced by boiling water causes the blades of a turbine to rotate. b. A neutron bombards a uranium-235 isotope. c. Thermal energy released by the reaction is added to water. d. Electricity from the generator is carried to the community through wires. e. A uranium-235 atom splits, producing two atoms with smaller nuclei, three neutrons, and thermal energy. f. The mechanical energy of the rotating turbine blades is transferred to an electric generator. g. Superheated water passes through a heat exchanger, where the thermal energy released boils a separate system of water to produce steam.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
