IB Physics · E.4 Fission
Natural uranium contains about 0.7 percent U-235. Fuel enriched for most reactors contains about:
- 3 to 5 percent U-235
- 50 percent U-235
- 90 percent U-235
- 0.1 percent U-235
Reactor fuel is typically enriched to about 3 to 5 percent U-235.
IB Physics · Tools: Measurement, Uncertainties and Graphs
Which of the following is a fundamental (base) SI unit?
- The newton
- The joule
- The kilogram
- The watt
The SI system has seven base units: metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole and candela. The newton, joule and watt are derived units built from these base units.
IB Physics · C.5 Doppler effect
A stationary source of frequency f emits sound. An observer moves toward it at speed vo. If v is the speed of sound, the observed frequency is:
- f (v - vo) / v
- f (v + vo) / v
- f v / (v + vo)
- f v / (v - vo)
The observer meets wavefronts more often: f observed = f (v + vo) / v.
