Answer:

B. A barrage stores water during high and low tides,when the water is released ,it turns the plant's turbine.

Explanation:

Tidal power refers to the power inherent in the solar and lunar gravitational effects on the ocean. These effects result in tides and create a current that is strong enough to drive turbines in order to generate electricity.

The tidal power consist of 3 main components:

  • The barrage
  • The sluice gate
  • The turbine generator

The barrage holds water during high and low tides with the sluice gate specifically closing during low tide to create a water level difference that is utilized by the turbine generator to generate power.

The correct option is B.

How do you test oxygen​
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The glowing splint test is a test for an oxidizing gas, such as oxygen. In this test, a splint is lit, allowed to burn for a few seconds, then blown out by mouth or by shaking. Whilst the ember at the tip is still glowing hot, the splint is introduced to the gas sample that has been trapped in a vessel. Oxygen supports combustion so a good method of testing for oxygen is to take a glowing splint and place it in a sample of gas, if it re-ignites the gas is oxygen. This is a simple but effective test for oxygen.

A person's weight changes as he travels from the earth to space, but his mass remains the same.
alina1380 [7]
When a man travels from earth to space, the mass of the person, defined as the amount energy a matter has remains constant. However, when he moves to space, gravity decreases until such time that there is no gravity that acts on the person. Weight thus changes or decreases until the point of state called weightlessness.

¿Por qué los gases nobles tienen tendencia a no formar compuesto si como todo elemento de la tabla periódica estos tienen electr
White raven [17]
Noble gases are the least reactive of all elements. That's because they have eight valence electrons, which fill their outer energy level. This is the most stable arrangement of electrons, so noble gases rarely react with other elements and form compounds.
