The correct answer to the question is D). Kinetic to electrical.

EXPLANATION:

Hydro electric power plants are the electricity generation plants which capture the energy of falling water to produce current.

The water present at the top of a dam has potential energy. When the water is allowed to fall from certain height, the potential energy of the water is converted into kinetic energy.

The falling water moving with high speed is allowed to fall on a turbine. The kinetic energy of the water will rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which will produce electricity due to the electromagnetic induction.

Hence, we see that the kinetic energy of the water is converted into electric energy.

If a flea can jump straight up to a height of 0.410 m , what is its initial speed as it leaves the ground?
aivan3 [116]

Initial velocity = \(v_0\)

acceleration in the downward direction = -9.8 \(\frac {m}{s^2}\)

Final velocity at the highest point = 0

Maximum height reached = 0.410 m

Now, Using third equation of motion:

\(v^2 = {v_0}^{2} + 2aH

\(0^2 = {v_0}^{2} - 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410

\({v_0}^{2} = 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410\)

\(v_0 = 2.834 \frac {m}{s}\)

Speed with which the flea jumps = \(2.834 \frac {m}{s}\)

Sherry and Ellen are talking about the factors that affect light scattering in the atmosphere. Sherry says one factor is the len
Delvig [45]

Sherry who says one factor is the length of the path of sunlight is correct.

<h3>Factors affecting light scattering</h3>

There are two main factors which affects light scattering, and they include the following;

  1. the size of the particles
  2. wavelength of the light

length of the path of sunlight is equivalent to wavelength of the light.

Thus, we can conclude that Sherry who says one factor is the length of the path of sunlight is correct.

Answer:

18 m, 7.9 m

Explanation:

In the y direction:

y = y₀ + v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

0 = 0 + (v₀ sin 45°) t + ½ (-g) t²

0 = t (v₀ sin 45° - ½ g t)

t = 0, t = 2v₀ sin 45° / g

In the x direction:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 + (v₀ cos 45°) t + ½ (0) t²

x = v₀ cos 45° t

Substituting for t:

x = v₀ cos 45° (2v₀ sin 45° / g)

x = v₀² / g

When g = 9.80 m/s², x = 3.0 m:

3.0 = v₀² / 9.80

v₀² = 29.4

On the moon, when g = 9.80/6:

x = 29.4 / (9.80 / 6)

x = 18 m

As you can see, x is inversely proportional to g, so 1/6 the gravity means 6 times the distance.  So on Mars:

x = 3 / 0.38

x = 7.9 m

Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b
Ainat [17]

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.
