Answer:
Water falls from a reservoir through a channel to a turbine. The water turns the turbines, which allows the generator to make electricity.
It is falling instead of flowing, because elavation is an important part of the hydroeletric power plant, since gravity is a thing, and there was elevation, than it would be falling and not flowing.
It’s not Cereal and Milk, carbonated drinks, and smoky air
Answer:
3141N or 3.1 ×10³N to 2 significant figures. The can experiences this inward force on its outer surface.
Explanation:
The atmospheric pressure acts on the outer surface of the can. In order to calculate this inward force we need to know the total surface area of the can available to the air outside the can. Since the can is a cylinder with a total surface area given by 2πrh + 2πr² =
A = 2πr(r + h)
Where h = height of the can = 12cm
r = radius of the can = 6.5cm/2 = 3.25cm
r = diameter /2
A = 2π×3.25 ×(3.25 + 12) = 311.4cm² = 311.4 ×10-⁴ = 0.031m²
Atmospheric pressure, P = 101325Pa = 101325 N/m²
F = P × A
F = 101325 ×0.031.
F = 3141N. Or 3.1 ×10³ N.
Halflife is the time taken by a radioactive substance by half its original mass. In this case the half life of the substance is 3 hours.
Therefore; New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives. In this case, the half life is 3 hours and therefore; the number of half lives in 6 hours will be two.
= if the original mass is 100%
new mass = 100 × (1/2)^2
= 100 × 1/4 = 25%
The remaining mass will be 1/4 of the original mass, meaning a fraction of 3/4 of the initial mass will have decayed.
Thus; the answer is 3/4
