Answer:
The process of producing electric energy or the amount of electric energy produced by transforming other forms of energy into electrical energy; commonly expressed in kilowatt-hours (kWh) or megawatt-hours (MWh). Electric power plant efficiency η is defined as the ratio between the useful electricity output from the generating unit, in a specific time, and the energy value of the energy source supplied to the unit in the same time period. For electricity generation based on steam turbines 65% of all prime energy is wasted as heat. The maximum theoretical energy efficiency is defined in more detail by the Rankine cycle. For modern practical systems this is about 40% but less for older generating plant. The efficiency falls still further if fuels with lower energy content such as biomass are used to supply the plant. The economics of power generation based on reciprocating engines depends to a large extent on the use to which the engine is to be put. The cheapest engines available are small petrol-driven engines based on car engines, which are manufactured in large numbers each year.

Answer:
Explanation:
First of all, we analyze the system of blocks before starting to move.
Hence, the incline angle θ for which both blocks begin to slide is 10.20°.
Now, if we do a free body diagram of block A we have that after the block moves, the spring force must be taken into account.

Where:



Therefore, the required stretch or compression in the connecting spring is 0.10 ft.

Answer:
17.6 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
= 90 m/s (final velocity)
= 2 m/s (initial velocity)
Δt = 5s (change in time)
The formula for acceleration is:
= Δv / Δt
We can find Δv by doing
Δv =
- 
Replace the values
Δv = 90m/s - 2m/s
Δv= 88m/s
Using the equation from earlier, we can find the acceleration by dividing the average velocity by time.
= Δv / Δt
= 
acceleration = 17.6 

Our Atmosphere is full of freely subtended particles, and when light from sun strikes the particles then scattering occurs, in which blue colour is most scattered and hence causing Sky to appear blue .
Hope it helps !!

Answer:
(A) 12.222 ohm (B) 990 W
Explanation:
We have given the voltage of the heating element V = 110 V
The current in the heating element i = 9 A
(a) According to ohm's law V =iR
So 

(b) The power dissipated in the resistor is given by
So the power dissipated = 990 W
