The proof that the displacement of a body in nth second which is given by the S=u+a/2(2n-1) is explained below.

<h3>Calculations and Parameters</h3>

Given:

  • u= initial velocity
  • a= acceleration

Displacement during nth second= displacement in n seconds- displacement in (n-1) seconds

= [un + \frac{1}{2} gn^2] - [ u(n-1) + \frac{1}{2} g(n-1)^2]

= (u * 1) + g(n *1) - \frac{g}{2}(1 *1)

Hence, in (n-1) seconds, n has a unit of time and 1 has a unit of time (not a constant)

Therefore, u(m/s) is multiplied by 1  (unit of time)

g(m/s^2) is multiplied by ( n*1 ), having units of time, i.e s^2

g/2 is also multiplied by ( 1 * 1, also having units of time,  i.e s^2

Therefore, the equation is dimensionally correct and we should note that 1 is not a constant in the equation as the time of 1 second in (n-1) second.

Which is a correct statement of what occurs at a turbine during electricity production?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The turbine is rotated and rotates the generator to produce electricity.

Explanation:

Within a turbine enters the superheated steam which is at high pressure and high temperature, this steam is previously formed in the boiler when the steam enters the turbine hits each one of the blades of the turbine making it rotate at a given speed, the turbine shaft is coupled to the shaft of an electric generator and thus generates electricity.

It is also important to say that when the steam comes out of the turbine comes out at low pressure, this way the internal operating process is carried out within the turbine.

A 12-kg dog jumps up in the air to catch a ball. The dog's center of mass is normally 0.20 m above the ground, and he is 0.50 m
ad-work [718]

Explanation:

Given Data:

mass of dog = 12 Kg

dog's center of mass = 0.20m

length of dog = 0.50m

height of dog's jump = ?

Solution:

Work done of gravitational force = Gain in Potential energy

2.1 × mgΔh = mg (h - 0.1)

2.1 × (0.3 - 0.1) = (h - 0.1)

h = 0.52 m
