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.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

33.7410805301 s

22336.5953109 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = $4\times 331$

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = $4g=4\times 9.81\ m/s^2$

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{4\times 331-0}{4\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=33.7410805301\ s$

The time taken is 33.7410805301 s

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times 9.81\times 33.7410805301^2\\\Rightarrow s=22336.5953109\ m$

The plane would travel 22336.5953109 m

Rain drops fall on a tile surface at a density of 4638 drops/ft2. There are 17 tiles/ft2. How many drops fall on each tile? Answ

Vinil7 [7]

Answer: 272.82 drop/tile

Explanation:

Given that the Rain drops fall on a tile surface at a density of 4638 drops/ft2. There are 17 tiles/ft2. How many drops fall on each tile?

Tiles/ft^2 × drop/tiles = drop/ft^2

Tiles will cancel out. Leaving the answer to be drop/ ft^2

Substitutes all the magnitude of the above units.

17 × drop/tiles = 4638

Make drop/tiles the subject of formula

Drop/tiles = 4638/17

Drop/tiles = 272.82

Therefore, 272.82 drop/tile drops fall on each tile?

One system consists of two like charges (q1 and q2) separated by a distance r. A second system consists of two charges that are

olganol [36]

fyt as per the question the magnitude of two like charges are given as q1 and q2.the separation distance is given as r unit.hence the potential energy is given as- $P.E=+\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q1*q2}{r^2}$

here the potential energy is positive which means the force between two charges is repulsive.the potential energy is maximum which indirectly denotes that the system is unstable.due to this repulsion the smaller charge may accelerate.

coming to the same charges of opposite nature i.e unlike charges-here the magnitude of charges are same and separation distance is also are,so the potential energy will be given as- $P.E=-\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon}\frac{q1*q2}{r^2}$

here the potential energy is negative .so the system of two charges are attracted by each other.
