Explain how convection currents transfer heat in the atmosphere\

-----------------------

hot air rises as it is less dense than cold.

=> convection currents eg sea breezez

A student measured the mass of ice in a glass container with a tight lid. He allowed the ice to melt, and then found the mass of

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The liquid formed from a melted solid has the same mass as the solid has.

Explanation:

As long as no water can escape, the mass of the ice before melting must equal the mass of the liquid water after.

A solid circular shaft and a tubular shaft, both with the same outer radius of c=co = 0.550 in , are being considered for a part

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The power for circular shaft is 7.315 hp and tubular shaft is 6.667 hp

Explanation:

Polar moment of Inertia

$(I_p)s = \frac{\pi(0.55)4}2$

= 0.14374 in 4

Maximum sustainable torque on the solid circular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow} \frac{I_p}{r}$

= $(14 \times 10^3) \times (\frac{0.14374}{0.55})$

= 3658.836 lb.in

= $\frac{3658.836}{12}$ lb.ft

= 304.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable torque on the tubular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow}( \frac{Ip}{r})$

= $(14 \times10^3) \times ( \frac{0.13101}{0.55})$

= 3334.8 lb.in

= $(\frac{3334.8}{12} )$ lb.ft

= 277.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable power in the solid circular shaft

$P_{max} = 2 \pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 304.9$

= 4023.061 lb. ft/s

= $(\frac{4023.061}{550})$ hp

= 7.315 hp

Maximum sustainable power in the tubular shaft

$P _{max,t} = 2\pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 277.9$

= 3666.804 lb.ft /s

= $(\frac{3666.804}{550})$ hp

= 6.667 hp

What other places in the world use hydro kinetic energy to generate electrical power?

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Alaska: Hydrokinetic Energy Campbell CR9000X used for in-stream hydrokinetic device evaluation. Marine hydrokinetic energy power generation is an emerging sector in the renewable energy portfolio. Hydrokinetic devices convert the energy of waves, tidal currents, ocean currents or river currents into electrical power.
