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.

What Newton discovered is that  gravity extends throughout the universe.

<h3>What is gravity?</h3>

The term gravity refers to the force that acts on a body in the universe. It is gravity that makes an object to fall when it is thrown up. The force of gravity acts on every object in the universe and it extends through the universe.

Humans have always known about gravity when they fall from a height and when they threw things up. However, human did not know that gravity extends throughout the universe.

Thus, what Newton discovered is that  gravity extends throughout the universe.

At what speed would a 3.00 x 10^4 kg airplane have to fly and with a momentum of 1.60 x 10^9 kg.m/s
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5.3×10⁴ m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Momentum = mass× velocity

M = mV................ Equation 1

Where M = momentum of the airplane, m = mass of the airplane, V = Velocity of the airplane

make V the subject of the equation

V = M/m.................. Equation 2

Given: M = 1.6×10⁹ Kg.m/s, m = 3.0×10⁴ kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = 1.6×10⁹/3.0×10⁴

V = 5.3×10⁴ m/s

video for A door 1 m wide, of mass 15 kg, is hinged at one side so that it can rotate without friction about a vertical axis. It
natka813 [3]

Answer:

\omega_f = 0.4\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

width of door dimension  = 1 m

mass of door = 15 Kg

mass of bullet = 10 g = 0.001 Kg

speed of bullet = 400 m/s

I_{total} =I_{door} + I_{bullet}

I_{total} =\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2

a) from conservation of angular momentum  

L_i = L_f  

mv\dfrac{W}{2} = I_{total}\omega_f  

mv\dfrac{W}{2}= (\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2)\omega_f

\omega_f= \dfrac{mv\dfrac{W}{2}}{\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2}

\omega_f= \dfrac{\dfrac{mv}{2}}{\dfrac{MW }{3}+(\dfrac{mW}{4})}

\omega_f= \dfrac{\dfrac{0.01\times 400}{2}}{\dfrac{15\times 1 }{3}+(\dfrac{0.01\times 1}{4})}

\omega_f = 0.4\ rad/s
