The correct answer to the question is : B) Generator.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.

All the power plants like thermal power plant, nuclear power plant and hydroelectric power plant use the same concept to produce electric energy.

Let us consider hydro power plant.

In hydro power plant, the water falling with high speed is allowed to fall on a turbine. The kinetic energy of the water rotates the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator.

The coil of wire attached to it is rotated through a magnetic field and electricity is produced due to electromagnetic induction.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is generator which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

How are hot spots used to track plate motion
wel
Hot spots are fixed locations in the earth's mantle where heat from the earth's interior rises to the surface and produces volcanism. the earth's plates, which are slowly but constantly moving, are pierced by the uprising magma. as they move away form the hotspot, the volcanoes become dormant and are replaces by new volcanoes. The direction of the line formed from the previous volcanoes indicates the direction  :)))

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?
marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.

What is the force that the gas exerts on each of the six sides of the box when the gas temperature is 20.0∘C?
Taya2010 [7]

Incomplete question as number of moles and length is missing.So I have assumed 3 moles and length of 0.300 m.So the complete question is here:

Three moles of an ideal gas are in a rigid cubical box with sides of length 0.300 m.What is the force that the gas exerts on each of the six sides of the box when the gas temperature is 20.0∘C?

Answer:

The Force act on each side is 2.43×10⁴N

Explanation:

Given data

n=3 mol

L=0.3 m

Temperature=20.0°C=293 K

To find

Force F

Solution

To get force act on each side it would employ by

F=P.A

Where P is pressure

A is Area

First we need to find pressure by applying ideal gas law

So

P.V=nRT\\P=\frac{nRT}{V}\\ P=\frac{(3mol)(8.315J/mol)(293K)}{(0.3m*0.3m*0.3m)}\\P=27.069*10^{4}Pa

So The Force is given as:

F=P.A\\F=(27.069*10^{4} )(0.3m*0.3m)\\F=2.43*10^{4}N

The Force act on each side is 2.43×10⁴N
