Answer:

hydropower

Explanation:

hydroelectric power is a domestic source of energy. This automatically allows each state to produce their own energy without being reliant on international fuel sources. It also won't pollute the air like power plants that burn fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas. This is because it is powered by water.

I hope this helped. sorry it took so long. I was trying to get the right resources 4 you

An Olympic track runner starts from rest and has an acceleration of 2.4 m/s2 for 3.6 s, then has zero acceleration for the remai

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

Explanation:

Acceleration definition: Acceleration is rate of change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

In this case, after 3.6 seconds the acceleration is zero, it means that the velocity of the runner after 3.6 seconds is not changing and it will remain constant for the remainder of the race. Now, we have to find the velocity of the runner that he had after 3.6 seconds and that would be the runner's speed for the remainder of the race. For this we use first equation of motion.

First equation of motion: Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf stands for final velocity

Vi stands for initial velocity

a stands for acceleration

t stands for time

In the question, it is mentioned that the runner starts from rest so its initial velocity (Vi) will be 0 m/s.

The acceleration (a) is given as 2.4 m/s²

The time (t) is given as 3.6 s

Now put the values of Vi, a and t in first equation of motion

Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf = 0 + 2.4×3.6

Vf = 2.4×3.6

Vf = 8.64 m/s

So,the runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

People in the future may well live inside a rotating space structure that is more than 2 km in diameter. Inside the structure, p

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

diameter of the rotating space = 2 Km

Force exerted at the edge of the space = 1 g

force experienced at the half way = ?

As the object is rotating in the circular part

Force is equal to centripetal acceleration.

at the edge

g = ω² r

ω is the angular velocity of the particle

r is the radius.

now, acceleration at the half way

g' = ω² r'

$g' = \omega^2 (\dfrac{r}{2})$

$g' =\dfrac{1}{2}(\omega^2 r)$

$g'=\dfrac{g}{2}$

People at the halfway experience g/2

hence, the correct answer is option B

The liquid pressure exerted in one direction only

Wewaii [24]

The pressure exerted by a liquid on an object increases as we go more deep into the liquid and this pressure is called as hydro static pressure . if we consider a part of the static fluid then all the horizontal forces will cancel out while the vertical forces will add vectorilly and due to which a pressure difference is created . so as we go more deep the pressure increase .

Now pressure is a scalar so it does not depend on direction but when two objects are on the same level with respect to a reference level then the pressure exerted on them by fluid is always the same . hope this helps

Whiteout friction you could not, write, drive or fly and airplane. Why not?

aleksklad [387]

friction is the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another. Due to gravity pulling everything down things need to friction in order to move

i hope this helps :/
