Tides can be used to convert kinetic energy into what kind of energy?.

Physics

IRINA_888 [86]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

As most economies witness rapid expansion, demand for power is projected to increase significantly. Though most economies have invested in fossil fuels, renewable and sustainable sources present great possibilities for cheap and reliable electricity. One energy resource that ranks among the top renewable and sustainable sources is tidal energy.

Tidal energy or tidal power is a form of renewable energy obtained due to alternating sea levels. The kinetic energy from the natural rise and fall of tides is harnessed and converted into electricity. Tides are caused by the combined gravitational forces of the moon, sun, and earth. However, tides are influenced most by the moon. The moon’s gravitational force is so strong that it tugs the ocean into a bulge. The high and low tides create tidal currents, which are essential in the generation of this kind of energy, mostly prevalent in coastal areas.

A 30 ohm resistor and a 20 ohm resistor are
Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

What are examples of a solution in solids, liquids, and gases
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Solid: metal alloy

Liquid: beer

Gas: Air

Explanation:

A solution is a type of mixture where the solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed. Homogeneous mixture means that the solute shouldn't be able to be seen with the naked eye, filtered and stable enough.  

Metal alloy will be an example of a solution in solid-state. Beer is a solution made of liquid alcohol and liquid water. Air mostly composed of nitrogen, but it has oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other substances in gaseous form.
