A power station burns 75 kilograms of coal per second. Each kg of coal contains 27 million joules of energy.

Physics
1 answer:
Kaylis [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

one kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ J

75 kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

So rate which energy is coming out of coal per second

= 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

= 2025 x 10⁶ J /s

2025 million watts .

b ) energy output = 800 million watts

efficiency = (800 / 2025) x 100

= 39.5 % .

You have a bowling ball with a mass of 4kg. You throw it with an acceleration of 10 m/s/s. With how much force will it hit the p
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 40 N</h3>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>force = mass × acceleration</h3>

From the question

mass = 4 kg

acceleration = 10 m/s²

So we have

force = 4 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>40 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Calculate the momentum of a 1800 kg elephant charging a hunter at a speed of 7.50 m/s.
liq [111]

The amount of movement, linear momentum, momentum or momentum is a physical quantity derived from a vector type that describes the movement of a body in any mechanical theory. In classical mechanics, the amount of movement is defined as the product of body mass and its velocity at a given time.

p= mv

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

Our values are given as,

m = 1800kg

v = 7.5m/s

Replacing we have that,

p = (1800)(7.5)

p = 13500kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the momentum is 13500kg\cdot m/s

A particle of mass m moves under an attractive central force F(r) = -Kr4 with angular momentum L. For what energy will the motio
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Angular velocity is same as frequency of oscillation in this case.

ω = \sqrt{\frac{7K}{m} } x [\frac{L^{2}}{mK}]^{3/14}

Explanation:

- write the equation F(r) = -Kr^{4} with angular momentum <em>L</em>

- Get the necessary centripetal acceleration with radius r₀ and make r₀ the subject.

- Write the energy of the orbit in relative to r = 0, and solve for "E".

- Find the second derivative of effective potential to calculate the frequency of small radial oscillations. This is the effective spring constant.

- Solve for effective potential

- ω = \sqrt{\frac{7K}{m} } x [\frac{L^{2}}{mK}]^{3/14}
