Water flows over Niagara Falss at the average rate of 2,400,000 kg/s, and the average height of the falls is about 50 m. Knowing

that the graviatational potential energy of falling water per second = mass (kg) x height (m) x gravity (9.8 m/s2), what is the power of Niagara Falls? How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

Answer:

1. 176 × 10^12 W ; 78400000000

Explanation:

Given the following :

Fall rate = 2,400,000kg/s

Average height of fall = 50m

Gravitational Potential of falling water = mgh = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height =

How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

Recall : power = workdone / time

Workdone = gravitational potential energy

Mass of water = density * volume

Density of water = 1 * 10^3kg/m^3

Rate of fow = volume / time = 2400000

Hence,

Power = 1000 * 2,400,000 * 9.8 * 50

Power = 1176000000000

Power = 1. 176 × 10^12 W

How many 15 W LED light bulbs could it power?

1176000000000 / 15 = 78400000000

= 78400000000 15 W bulbs

Nadya [2.5K]

The ml is also called as the magnetic quantum number. The value of ml can range from –l to +l including zero. Hence all of the possible values for ml given that l = 2 are:

<span>-2, -1, 0, + 1, + 2</span>

A steel container with a movable piston contains 2.00 g of helium which was held at a constant temperature of 25 °C. Additional
shtirl [24]

Answer: D) 1.00 g

Explanation:

According to the Avogadro's law, the volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at same pressure and temperature. That means,

V\propto n

or,

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}

where,

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 2.00 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 3.00 L

n_1 = initial moles of gas  =\frac{\text {Given mass of helium}}{\text {molar mass of helium}}=\frac{2.00g}{4g/mol}=0.500mol

n_2 = final moles of gas  = ?

Now we put all the given values in this formula, we get

\frac{2.00L}{3.00L}=\frac{0.500mol}{n_2}

n_2=0.75mole

Mass of helium =moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=0.75\times 4=3.00g

Thus mass of helium added = (3.00-2.00) g = 1.00 g
