2.3 grams of wood has the same energy as 1g of oil.

The majority of wood and wood waste used as fuel in the United States is used by industry. Manufacturers of paper and wood products are the biggest industrial users. They produce steam and electricity from waste from paper and lumber mills, which saves money by lowering the number of other fuels and electricity they need to buy to run their facilities.

There are numerous power plants that primarily burn wood to produce electricity in the electric power sector, and some coal-burning power plants burn wood chips along with coal to cut down on sulfur dioxide emissions. The primary purpose of wood consumption in the business sector is heating.

a golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and an angle of 35 degrees. how far did the ball travel before hitti

poizon [28]

Ans: R = Ball Travelled = 92.15 meters.

Explanation:
First we need to derive that formula for the "range" in order to know how far the ball traveled before hitting the ground.

Along x-axis, equation would be:
$x = x_o + v_o_xt + \frac{at^2}{2}$

Since there is no acceleration along x-direction; therefore,
$x = x_o + v_o_xt$

Since $v_o_x = v_ocos \alpha$ and $x_o$ =0; therefore above equation becomes,

$x = v_ocos \alpha t$ --- (A)

Now we need to find "t", and the time is not given. In order to do so, we shall use the y-direction motion equation. Before hitting the ground y ≈ 0 and a = -g; therefore,

=> $y = y_o + v_o_yt - \frac{gt^2}{2}$
=> $t = \frac{2v_o_y}{g}$

Since $v_o_y = sin \alpha$ ; therefore above equation becomes,
$t = \frac{2v_osin \alpha }{g}$

Put the value of t in equation (A):

(A) => $x = v_ocos \alpha \frac{2v_osin \alpha }{g}$

Where x = Range = R, and $2sin \alpha cos \alpha = sin(2 \alpha )$ ; therefore above equation becomes:

=> $R = (v_o)^2 *\frac{sin(2 \alpha )}{g}$

Now, as:
$v_o = 31 m/s$

and $\alpha = 35$ °
and g = 9.8 m/(s^2)

Hence,
$R = (31)^2 *\frac{sin(2 *35 )}{9.8}$

Ans: R = 92.15 meters.

The “turning effect of a force” (T = F * r) is:

Doss [256]

Answer:

b and e

Explanation:

r x F is the formula for torque.

The "turning effect" or torque happens when concentric forces rotate an object along said center.

a) False because T = Fr = Ia (a = angular acceleration)

b) True

c) False. L = Iw (w = angular velocity), which does not equal Ia

d) False. It is torque, not the product of torque and something else

e) True.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

SO ANSWER AGRE AS FOLLOWS:

Explanation:

A. Wind is the movement of air, caused by the uneven heating of the Earth by the sun and the Earth's own rotation. Winds range from light breezes to natural hazards such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

B.At night, the roles reverse. The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. The land loses heat quickly after the sun goes down and the air above it cools too. ... This causes the low surface pressure to shift to over the ocean during the night and the high surface pressure to move over the land.
