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.

the motion of a particle along a straight line is represented by the position versus time graph above. at which of the labeled p

atroni [7]

Point A has the largest magnitude of acceleration as compared to other points on the position verses time graph.

On the graph, A is the point where magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is greatest as compared to other positions on the graph because the height of point A is the largest as compared to other points of the graph.

The graph shows at which point acceleration of an object is higher and lower so we can conclude that point A has the largest magnitude of acceleration as compared to other points on the position verses time graph.

The Coriolis effect is the result of which of these?

Anarel [89]

The coriolis effect was discovered in the 19th century by Gaspard. C. Coriolis. It simply relates to anything that moves freely on the surface of the earth including apparent curvature global winds and ocean currents.
This curvature is mainly due to the rotation of the earth around its axis.

James threw a ball vertically upward with a velocity of 41.67ms-1 and after 2 second David threw a ball vertically upward with a

Reptile [31]

Answer:

When have passed 3.9[s], since James threw the ball.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the ball thrown by James and we will find the final height and velocity by the time two seconds have passed.

We'll use the kinematics equations to find these two unknowns.

$y=y_{0} +v_{0} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\where:\\y= elevation [m]\\y_{0}=initial height [m]\\v_{0}= initial velocity [m/s] =41.67[m/s]\\t = time passed [s]\\g= gravity [m/s^2]=9.81[m/s^2]\\Now replacing:\\y=0+41.67 *(2)-\frac{1}{2} *(9.81)*(2)^{2} \\\\y=63.72[m]\\$

Note: The sign for the gravity is minus because it is acting against the movement.

Now we can find the velocity after 2 seconds.

$v_{f} =v_{o} +g*t\\replacing:\\v_{f} =41.67-(9.81)*(2)\\\\v_{f}=22.05[m/s]$

Note: The sign for the gravity is minus because it is acting against the movement.

Now we can take these values calculated as initial values, taking into account that two seconds have already passed. In this way, we can find the time, through the equations of kinematics.

$y=y_{o} +v_{o} *t-\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\y=63.72 +22.05 *t-\frac{1}{2} *(9.81)*t^{2} \\\\y=63.72 +22.05 *t-4.905*t^{2} \\$

As we can see the equation is based on Time (t).

Now we can establish with the conditions of the ball launched by David a new equation for y (elevation) in function of t, then we match these equations and find time t

$y=y_{o} +v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2} \\where:\\v_{o} =55.56[m/s] = initial velocity\\y_{o} =0[m]\\now replacing\\63.72 +22.05 *t-(4.905)*t^{2} =0 +55.56 *t-(4.905)*t^{2} \\63.72 +22.05 *t =0 +55.56 *t\\63.72 = 33.51*t\\t=1.9[s]$

Then the time when both balls are going to be the same height will be when 2 [s] plus 1.9 [s] have passed after David throws the ball.

Time = 2 + 1.9 = 3.9[s]
