Answer
d. renewable energy

Explanation
Energy can be said to be one of the most basic commodity in the 21st century. Every household uses energy in almost all its doing eg. cooking lighting, cleaning, entertainment such televisions and radios, communication etc.
For this reason, the scientist have to find the most sustainable source of energy. Some are not sustainable as they can be used up and other pollute the environment.
By the year 2030, the most expected source of energy to have the highest rate of consumption is renewable energy.

Ten high-technology batteries are tested for 200 hours each. One failed at 20 hours; another failed at 140 hours; all others com

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Failure rate = 20%

MTBF = 880 hours

Explanation:

given data

batteries = 10

tested = 200 hours

one failed = 20 hours

another fail at = 140 hours

solution

we know that Mean Time between Failures is express as = (Total up time) ÷ (number of breakdowns) ....................1

so here Total up time will be

Total up time = 200 × 10

Total up time = 2000

and here

Number of breakdown = 1 at 20 hour and another at 140 hour = 2

so it will be = (Total up time) ÷ (number of breakdowns) .......2

= $\frac{2000}{2}$ = 1000

so here gap between occurrences is

gap between occurrences= 140 - 20

gap between occurrences = 120 hour

and

MTBF will be

MTBF = 1000 - 120

MTBF = 880 hours

and

Failure rate (FR) will be

Failure rate (FR) = 1 ÷ MTBF ................3

Failure rate (FR) = R÷T ......................4

as here R is the number of failures and T is total time

so Failure rate (FR) = 20%

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.66 m, the pendulum bob has a mass of 310 grams, and it is released at an angle of 12 degree

lina2011 [118]

A) the periodic time is given by the equation;
T= 2π√(L/g)
For the frequency will be obtained by 1/T (Hz)
T = 2 × 3.14 √ (0.66/9.81)
= 6.28 × √0.0673
= 1.6289 Seconds
Frequency = 1/T = f = 1/1.6289
thus; frequency = 0.614 Hz

b) The vertical distance, the height is given by
h= 0.66 cos 12
h = 0.65 m
Vertical fall at the lowest point = 0.66 - 0.65 = 0.01 m
Applying conservation of energy
energy lost (MgΔh) = KE gained (1/2mv²)
mgh = 1/2mv²
v² = 2gΔh = 2×9.81 × 0.01
= 0.1962
v = 0.443 m/s

c) total energy = KE + GPE = KE when GPE is equal to zero (at the lowest point possible)
Thus total energy is equal to;
E = 1/2mv²
= 1/2 × 0.310 × 0.443²
= 0.0304 J

Acid rain contributes to soil erosion. Acid rain can be caused by

elixir [45]

It can be caused by chemical reactions like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These can rise very high in the atmosphere. They can mix in with oxygen and rain and thats where you get your acid rain from

I hope this is helpful

Suppose 3 mol of neon (an ideal monatomic gas) at STP are compressed slowly and isothermally to 0.19 the original volume. The ga

Radda [10]

Answer:

a. 273 K b. 90.1 K c. 5.26 atm d. 0.33 atm

Explanation:

For isothermal expansion PV = constant

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ where P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm (standard pressure), V₁ = initial volume of gas, P₂ = final pressure of gas and V₂ = final volume of gas,

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

Since V₂/V₁ = 0.19,

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

P₂ = 1 atm (1/0.19)

P₂ = 5.26 atm

For an adiabatic expansion, PVⁿ = constant where n = ratio of molar heat capacities = 5/3 for monoatomic gas

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ where P₂ = initial pressure of gas = 5.26 atm, V₂ = initial volume of gas, P₃ = final pressure of gas and V₃ = final volume of gas,

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂V₂ⁿ/V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

Since V₃ = V₁ ,V₂/V₃ = V₂/V₁ = 0.19

1/0.19,

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

P₃ = 5.26 atm (0.19)⁽⁵/³⁾

P₃ = 5.26 atm × 0.0628

P₃ = 0.33 atm

Using the ideal gas equation

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄ where P₃ = pressure after adiabatic expansion = 0.33 atm , V₃ = volume after adiabatic expansion, T₃ = temperature after adiabatic expansion P₄ = initial pressure of gas = P₁ = 1 atm , V₄ = initial volume of gas = V₁ and T₄ = initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 273 K (standard temperature)

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄

T₃ = P₃V₃T₄/P₄V₄

T₃ = (P₃/P₄)(V₃/V₄)T₂

Since V₃ = V₄ = V₁ and P₄ = P₁

V₃/V₄ = 1 and P₃/P₄ = P₃/P₁

T₃ = (P₃/P₁)(V₃/V₄)T₂

T₃ = (0.33 atm/1 atm)(1)273 K

T₃ = 90.1 K

So,

a. The highest temperature attained by the gas is T₁ = 273 K

b. The lowest temperature attained by the gas = T₃ = 90.1 K

c. The highest pressure attained by the gas is P₂ = 5.26 atm

d. The lowest pressure attained by the gas is P₃ = 0.33 atm

You are given two objects of identical size, one made of aluminum and the other of lead. You hang each object separately from a

ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of lead object = volume of aluminium object = V

mass of lead object > mass of aluminium object

When both the objects immersed in water, the buoyant force acting on both the objects.

Buoyant force = Volume immersed x density of water x gravity

As the volume of both the objects is same, so the buoyant force acting on both the objects is same.

So, weight in air of lead object is more than the weight in air of aluminium object.
