Which of the following is considered a drawback to using wind energy as a source of power?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Wind energy is directly derived from the wind. In the places where wind blowing is quite frequent, there wind mills are being set up, and the turbines in it rotates due to the prevailing wind. Due to this continuous motion of turbines, it collects the wind energy and it is being transferred into electrical energy.

It is cost-effective and does not produce any kind of pollution and is completely a renewable energy, that it can generated again and again.

It does have certain drawbacks also, because <u>the area may sometime do not experience constant wind, due to which it cannot store energy. So frequent wind blowing areas are the best place to set up windmills</u>.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3)

Particle 1 has a velocity v1 = 2 m/s and a mass m1 = 2 kg . this particle collides with particle 2 of mass m2 = 6 kg , which is
creativ13 [48]
This follows the law of conservation of momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of object. 
Momentum = mass(m) x velocity(v) 
law of conservation of momentum means that the total momentum of system before the collision of 2 objects is equal to the total momentum after the collision 
Before the collision total momentum 
= m1v1 + m2v2
m1 = 2 kg
v1 = 2 m/s
m2 = 6 kg
v2 = 0 m/s
substituting the values in the equation 
total momentum before = (2 kg x 2 m/s) + (6 kg x 0 m/s)
total momentum = 4 kgm/s
after the collision the 2 objects stick together and have a common velocity 
total momentum after the collision  = (6 kg + 2 kg)x V  = 8V
V = speed of the conglomerate particle

since total momentum before is equal to total momentum after
8V = 4
V = 2 m/s
speed of conglomerate particle is 2 m/s

maw [93]
The sun's energy would be circulated through convection. This is because whenever you see the word "circulate", there is a pretty good chance it has something to do with convection.
