Compare and contrast bio-mass and hydroelectricity as sources of energy.

Physics

Bio-mass and hydro-electricity both are renewable sources of energy.

Bio-mass is organic matter used as a fuel, especially in a power station for the generation of electricity. It is obtained from dead plants and animal wastes. Therefore, it is naturally refilled. It is the result of natural processes. Wood, gobar gas, etc. are some of the examples of bio-mass.

Hydro-electricity, on the other hand, is acquired from the potential energy stored in water at a height. Energy from it can be produced again and again. It is harnessed from water and obtained from mechanical processes.

If a net force acting on a moving object causes its speed to increase, what
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

It increases.

Explanation:

If a force acts in the same direction as the object's motion, then the force speeds the object up. Either way, a force will change the velocity of an object. And if the velocity of the object is changed, then the momentum of the object is changed.

A python can detect thermal radiation from objects that differ in temperature from their environment as long as the received int
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

10.52 m

Explanation:

The power radiated by a body is given by

P = σεAT⁴ where ε = emissivity = 0.97, T = temperature = 30 C + 273 = 303 K, A = surface area of human body = 1.8 m², σ = 5.67 × 10⁻⁴ W/m²K⁴

P = σεAT⁴ = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴ ×  0.97 × 1.8 m² × (303)⁴ = 834.45 W

This is the power radiated by the human body.

The intensity I = P/A where A = 4πr² where r = distance from human body.

I = P/4πr²

r = (√P/πI)/2

If the python is able to detect an intensity of 0.60 W/m², with a power of 834.45 W emitted by the human body, the maximum distance r, is thus

r = (√P/πI)/2 = (√834.45/0.60π)/2 = 21.04/2 = 10.52 m

So, the maximum distance at which a python could detect your presence is 10.52 m.

After a check up, a person now has a far point of 100 cm, but with good near point vision. He needs to wear a new pair of correc
lakkis [162]

Answer:

so his far point according to this pair of glass is 200 cm

Explanation:

power of old pair of corrective glasses is given as

P = -0.5 dioptre

now we have

f = \frac{1}{P}

f = -2 m

f = -200 cm

now we know that for normal vision the maximum distance of vision is for infinite distance

so by lens formula we have

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{d_i} + 0 = \frac{1}{200}

d_i = 200 cm

so his far point according to this pair of glass is 200 cm
