An illustration of a nuclear reactor. There are 3 parallel lines sticking half out of the reactor labeled rods containing uranium. There are parallel rods in the reactor labeled neutron-absorbing material. It is labeled nuclear reactor.
A power plant needs to slow down the fission reactions in its nuclear reactor. In which direction should the uranium-containing rods in the diagram be moved?

Janelle made a hypothesis bout the uneven temperatures inside her house during winter. she believes that 50% of the ducts are blocked and she plans to investigate. if she wants to prove her hypothesis using scientific processes what should she do next?

Consider the particle-in-a-box problem in 1d. a particle with mass m is confined to move freely between two hard walls situated at x = 0 and x = l. the potential energy function is given as (a) describe the boundary conditions that must be satisfied by the wavefunctions ψ(x) (such as energy eigenfunctions). (b) solve the schr¨odinger’s equation and by using the boundary conditions of part (a) find all energy eigenfunctions, ψn(x), and the corresponding energies, en. (c) what are the allowed values of the quantum number n above? how did you decide on that? (d) what is the de broglie wavelength for the ground state? (e) sketch a plot of the lowest 3 levels’ wavefunctions (ψn(x) vs x). don’t forget to mark the positions of the walls on the graphs. (f) in a transition between the energy levels above, which transition produces the longest wavelength λ for the emitted photon? what is the corresponding wavele

Complete the statement about memory improvement. ( )involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity. rehearsal is the verbal repetition of information. these techniques are especially important for the improvement of ( ) memory.
