Define sources of energy

Energy is the capacity of a body to do work.
We Classify the sources of energy on the basis of:
<u>Occurence:</u>
- Natural Sources: Natural energy sources are those which are made available to us by nature. Solar energy, wind energy, energy from water (hydro energy) are some of such natural sources of Energy.
- Synthetic Sources: Synthetic energy are those that use man-made materials as sources of energy. Fir example, chemical energy, stored in the batteries, (used in calculators, watches, etc.) is a synthetic source of energy.
<u>Physical</u><u> </u><u>State:</u>
- Solid: Firewood, Charcoal, coal are examples of solid fuels.
- Liquid: Kerosene, Petrol & diesel are all liquid fuels.
- Gas: Petroleum gas, commonly used as LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas), & natural gas, also used CNG (Compressed Natural Gas), are examples of gaseous fuels
<u>Availability</u><u>:</u>
- Renewable: A renewable source of energy is a natural resource that can replenish itself naturally over a short period of time. Wind, sun, biomass (from plants) & hydropower (from water) are all renewable sources of energy. These arr inexhaustible natural resources.
- Non-renewable: Energy sources which get us & cannot be replaced or replenished in a short period of time are called non-renewable sources of energy. These are also called exhaustible natural resources. Fossil fuels, (like petroleum, natural gas & coal), are non-renewable sources of energy.

Answer:
<em>126.01 rad/s^2</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
since it starts from rest, initial angular speed ω' = 0 rad/s
angular speed N = 477 rev/min
angular speed in rad/s ω =
=
= 49.95 rad/s
angular displacement ∅ = 1.5758 rev
angular displacement in rad/s =
= 2 x 3.142 x 1.5758 = 9.9 rad
angular acceleration
= ?
using the equation of angular motion
ω^2 = ω'^2 + 2
∅
imputing values, we have

2495 = 19.8
= 2495/19.8 = <em>126.01 rad/s^2</em>
Answer:
Approximately
.
Assumption: air resistance on the rocket is negligible. Take
.
Explanation:
By Newton's Second Law of Motion, the acceleration of the rocket is proportional to the net force on it.
.
Note that in this case, the uppercase letter
in the units stands for "mega-", which is the same as
times the unit that follows. For example,
, while
.
Convert the mass of the rocket and the thrust of its engines to SI standard units:
- The standard unit for mass is kilograms:
. - The standard for forces (including thrust) is Newtons:
.
At launch, the velocity of the rocket would be pretty low. Hence, compared to thrust and weight, the air resistance on the rocket would be pretty negligible. The two main forces that contribute to the net force of the rocket would be:
- Thrust (which is supposed to go upwards), and
- Weight (downwards due to gravity.)
The thrust on the rocket is already known to be
. Since the rocket is quite close to the ground, the gravitational acceleration on it should be approximately
. Hence, the weight on the rocket would be approximately
.
The magnitude of the net force on the rocket would be
.
Apply the formula
to find the net force on the rocket. To make sure that the output (acceleration) is in SI units (meters-per-second,) make sure that the inputs (net force and mass) are also in SI units (Newtons for net force and kilograms for mass.)
