Answer: A). Geothermal power plants use the renewable resource of heat from within the Earth to generate electricity.

Explanation:

Geothermal energy is the energy which is obtain in the form of heat liberated from water released from the earth geosphere. The hot mantle causes the boiling of the groundwater which is liberated from the hot spring. It is a renewable source of energy which means it is obtained from resource which can be replenished and can be used again. This energy is used to generate electricity.

2. A 50 kg diver is standing on the edge of a 15 m high cliff. What is his potential energy?

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

3675 J

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy = $\frac{1}{2}$ × mass × g × height

( g is the gravitation field strength )

Mass = 50 kg

G = 9.8 N/kg ( this is always the same )

Height = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 50 ×9.8 × 15

= 3675 J

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300) ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.

A pen rolls off a 0.55–meter high table with an initial horizontal velocity of 1.2 meters/second. At what horizontal distance fr

NARA [144]

To find the horizontal distance multiple the horizontal velocity by the time. Since there is no given time it must be calculated using kinematic equation.

Y=Yo+Voyt+1/2at^2
0=.55+0+1/2(-9.8)t^2
-.55=-4.9t^2
sqrt(.55/4.9)=t
t=0.335 seconds

Horizontal distance
=0.335s*1.2m/s
=0.402 meters
