The answer is A. Energy from <span>various energy sources, such as wind or from burning fossil fuels, is used to spin the blades of the turbine. The turbine then powers a generator, which produces electricity.

Works on simple principle of the turbine blades translation of energy sources causing the mechanical spin of the blades which is connected to a rotor which spins the main shaft of generator thus producing electricity.</span>

A stone is dropped from a certain height, distance covered by it in one second is:
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

d = 4.9 m

Explanation:

It is mentioned that a stone is dropped from a certain height. It is required to find the distance covered by it in one second.

The initial speed of the stone is equal to 0 as it was at rest. Let d is the distance covered by the stone.

Using second equation of motion :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Put u = 0 and a = g

d=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times 1^2\\\\d=4.9\ m

So, the distance covered by it in one second is 4.9 m.
