<u>Hydroelectric power,</u> also called hydropower is the electricity produced from generators driven by turbines that convert the potential energy of falling or fast-flowing water into mechanical energy.
The correct answer to the question is: A) miles/hour and B) metre/ second.
EXPLANATION:
Before answering this question, first we have to understand speed.
The speed of a body is defined as the rate of distance travelled or the distance travelled by a body per unit time.
Hence, it is a derived quantity which is obtained from distance and time.
The unit of distance can be metre, miles, and the unit of time can be second, minutes or hour.
As speed is the distance covered per unit time, the perfect units will be miles/hour and metre/second.
Hence, the correct options are first and second.
Answer:
The lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J
Explanation:
Given data,
The mass of aluminium block, m = 1.0 kg
The initial temperature of block, T = 50° C
The final temperature of the block, T' = 25° C
The change in temperature, ΔT = 50° C - 25° C
= 25° C
The specific heat capacity of aluminium, c = 900 J/kg°C
The formula for thermal energy,
<em>Q = mcΔT</em>
= 1.0 x 900 x 25
= 22500 J
Hence, the lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J
Answer:
The longest wavelength of light is 666.7 nm
Explanation:
The general form of the grating equation is
mλ = d(sinθi + sinθr)
where;
m is third-order maximum = 3
λ is the wavelength,
d is the slit spacing (m/slit)
θi is the incident angle
θr is the diffracted angle
Note: at longest wavelength, sinθi + sinθr = 1
λ = d/m
d = 1/500 slits/mm
λ = 1 mm/(500 *3) = 1mm/1500 = 666.7 X 10⁻⁶ mm = 666.7 nm
Therefore, the longest wavelength of light is 666.7 nm
