Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When kinetic energy of falling water is converted to electricity then the generated power is called hydroelectric power.

In a hydroelectric plant, a reservoir is used to store water in a dam. This dam is located on a river. When water is released from this reservoir then it flows through the turbine. As a result, this turbine spins and activates a generator which produces electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that hydroelectric power is generated by converting the kinetic energy of falling water to electricity.

lana66690 [7]

The heat will flow from copper to aluminum because Cu is at higher temperature. The heat liberated is -7.60kJ

When two metals at different temperatures are kept in contact, heat flows from hotter metal to colder metal until thermal equilibrium is reached.

Here Copper is at a temperature of 60 degree Celsius and aluminum is at 40 degree Celsius. Thus, heat will flow from Cu to Al.

In order to calculate the amount of heat liberated following calculations are required.

m1=262 g

T1=87 oC

Cp=0.385 J/g oC

T2=11.8 oC

The heat liberated can be expressed as follows:

Q=mCp(T2-T1)

Q=262 g*0.385 J/goC(11.8-87)oC

Q=-7585 J

=-7.60kJ
