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.

juin [17]
-- When the man at the North end throws the ball, the canoe
accelerates to the North.

-- While the ball is in flight, traveling south by the length of the
canoe, the canoe moves northward at a constant speed.

-- If the man at the south end misses the ball and fails to catch it,
then the canoe continues moving south at a constant speed, even
after the ball has passed him.

-- If the man at the south end successfully catches the ball, then the
canoe accelerates south at that moment, and comes to rest in the water.
