Of waterfalls with a height of more than 50 m , Niagara Falls in Canada has the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world.

The total average flow rate of the falls is 2.80×10³ m³/s and its average height is 52.0 m (Niagara Falls Live, 2017). Given that the density of water is 1.00×10³ kg/m³, calculate the average power output of Niagara Falls.
Average power output: _________.

Answer:

Power output: W=1426.9MW

Explanation:

The power output of the falls is given mainly by its change in potential energy:

Q=-P_{tot}=-(P_{2}-P_{1})

The potential energy for any point can be calculated as:

P=m*g*h

If we consider the base of the falls to be the reference height, at point 2 h=0, so P2=0, and height at point 1 equals 52m:

Q=P_{1}=m*g*h

If we replace m with the mass rate M we obtain the rate of change in potential energy over time, so the power generated:

W=M*g*h=2.8*10^{3}m^{3}/s*1*10^{3}kg/m^{3}*9.8m/s^{2}*52m =1426.9MW

The mcb of rupa's room is tripped and keeps on tripping again and again . if it is a domestic circuit, what could be the reason
Tamiku [17]

The MCB of a rupas room is tripped and keeps on tripping again and again, and if it is a domestic circuit, what could be the reason for this phenomenon?

The reason could be a short circuit which is resulting in higher level of currents to pass through the MCB which is resulting in trip every time.

OR

The MCB is faulty and might need a replacement.

To Diagnose the problem further more.

Turn off all the switches in rupas room and then try turning on the MCB. If it trips again then MCB is faulty (Subjective to the fact there everything was normal before this issue and no signs of short circuit or spark in wiring were observed)

If MCB does not trip in point 1 then Turn ON all the switches one by one. This shall give you the cause of problem.

A brass alloy is known to have a yield strength of 240 MPa (35,000 psi), a tensile strength of 310 MPa (45,000 psi), and an elas
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Here Strain due to testing is greater than the strain due to yielding that is why computation of load is not possible.

Explanation:

Given that

Yield strength ,Sy= 240 MPa

Tensile strength = 310 MPa

Elastic modulus ,E= 110 GPa

L=380 mm

ΔL = 1.9 mm

Lets find strain:

Case 1 :

Strain due to elongation (testing)

ε = ΔL/L

ε = 1.9/380

ε = 0.005

Case 2 :

Strain due to yielding

\varepsilon' =\dfrac{S_y}{E}

\varepsilon' =\dfrac{240}{110\times 1000}

ε '=0.0021

Here Strain due to testing is greater than the strain due to yielding that is why computation of load is not possible.

For computation of load strain due to testing should be less than the strain due to yielding.
