Andrei [34K]3 years ago

The advantages of generating electricity using a hydroelectric power station rather than wind turbines is that it's not polluting anything since it's regular water. It also can be used over and over again.

The disadvantages of using a hydroelectric power station is that it can be very deadly and cause damage to towns if it overfills or falls apart releasing all the water. Since nothing lasts forever, eventually they will break apart and would require everyone to evacuate before doing so. Another disadvantage is that it disrupts migration of animals that live in the water such as fish.

It's better than wind turbines because wind turbines require a lot of wind to turn and on days without wind, very little energy can be produced.

A 20kg mass approaches a spring at a speed of 30 m/s. The mass compresses the spring 12cm before coming to a stop. Calculate the
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m

What are challenges of securing a crime scene
kotegsom [21]

At any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

<h3>What is the meaning of physical evidence?</h3>

In evidence law, physical evidence (also called real evidence or material evidence) is any material object that plays some role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced as evidence in a judicial proceeding (such as a trial) to prove a fact in issue based on the object's physical characteristics.

The two types of evidence at crime scenes:

Biological evidence (e.g., blood, body fluids, hair and other tissues)

Latent print evidence (e.g., fingerprints, palm prints, footprints)

The biggest impediment to an investigation is the removal or loss of a piece of evidence from the scene of a crime.

Hence, at any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

A 5.00 kg object oscillates back and forth at the end ofa spring whose spring constant is 49.3 N/m. An obersever istraveling at
defon

Answer:

5.571 sec

Explanation:

angular frequency = √ (k/m) = √ (49.3 / 5) = 3.14 rad/s

Period To = 2π / angular frequency

Period To = 2π/3.14 = 2 × 3.14 / 3.142 = 2.00 sec which you got

T measured by the observer = To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))) = 2 / √( 1 - 0.871111) = 2 / 0.35901 = 5.571 sec

t=2.00/(1-√((2.80*10^8)^2/(3.00*10^8)^2))= should have been  ( To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))).  where To = 2.00 sec
