Which is the most expensive source of electric power in common use today?
Alkaline batteries.
Nuclear power.
Standard batteries.
Watch batteries.
Hydroelectric power.
It must be watch batteries because other power source are used at large scale specially nuclear power and hydroelectric so they must be cheaper

QUESTION 12 The heat used to power thermal-electric generating stations is obtained from: fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas O nuclear fusion the sun both a and b QUESTION 13 The cheapest and most environmentally-safe type of generating station is: a hydroelectric generating station. O a nuclear power generating station. a coal power generating station. a natural gas power generating station. QUESTION 1 If electric power is to be transmitted any great distance, a step-down transformer is...
The demand for electric cars created demand for the batteries to power them. Cobalt is a key mineral used to produce batteries. The source of 54% of cobalt is the Congo. Cobalt is mined by industrial miners and freelancers. Freelancers include children. These miners rarely wear masks and they often face crippling injuries. These working conditions are a concern for wholesalers who are trying to buy more cobalt from industrial miners who have greater control over the production process. Cobalt...
Which of the following maintenance practices should be carried out most frequently on motive-power batteries? A. Replacing cable insulation B. Checking the specific gravity of the electrolyte C. Checking the electrolyte level D. Replacing the vent caps
We consider a nuclear reactor of power output P=1000 Megawatt (1000 million watts) electric, functioning with Plutonium. It is fueled, initially, with 1000 kg of Plutonium. The nuclear material in question is made of Plutonium nuclei, each consisting in 94 protons and 239-94=145 neutrons, which is denominated by the symbol 94Pu239. For thermodynamical reasons, only 1/3rd of the nuclear energy in the form of heat produced by the reactor, can be converted into electricity. How much mass deficit Δm should...
