Answer: C. Coal power can be generated both day and night.

Explanation:

Coal is an important form of source of energy. It is a non-renewable source of energy. It is obtain by mining of the surface below the earth crust.  Coal plays an important role in generation of electricity worldwide.  

It acts as a raw material for the generation of electricity in both day and night. When the coal is turned into a gas. The gas turbine is hot enough to boil the water that can be used to make the steam. The steam spin another type of turbine so as to generate the electricity.

The threshold of hearing is defined as the minimum discernible intensity of the sound. It is approximately 10−12w/m2. Find the
Monica [59]

Answer:

The distance d from the car at which the sound from the stereo can still be discerned = 97720.5 m

Explanation:

Sound intensity heard at distance is related to the distance with the relation = (power of sound at the source)/(surface area of the wall of an imaginary sphere at the distance in question)

I = P/4πd²

Assuming the car has 2 speakers,

P = 0.06 W × 2 = 0.12 W

d = ?

For the intensity of the least discernible sound,

I = 10⁻¹² W/m²

10⁻¹² = 0.12/4πd²

d = 97720.5 m

An object is projected upward from the surface of the earth with an initial speed of 3.7 km/s. find the maximum height it reache
Mariulka [41]
The kinetic energy of the object just after it starts its motion from the Earth surface is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the object mass and v=3.7 km/s=3700 m/s its initial speed.
When it reaches its maximum height, the object speed is zero and all its kinetic energy converted into gravitational potential energy, which is
U=mgh
where g=9.81 m/s^2 and h is the maximum height reached by the object.

Since the energy of the object must be conserved, K=U, therefore we can write
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =mgh
and we can solve to find h, the maximum height:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(3700 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=  6.98 \cdot 10^5 m=698 km

Which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

c. A Generator

Explanation:

The whole point of a generator is to produce electrical energy. The generator will use a mechanical motor usually running off of gas to produce electricity.

Find change of velocity for:<br> 0-1.7 s<br> 1.7-6s
tekilochka [14]
The integral of acceleration is velocity. The area under the curve is an integral. You can see the relation here. So just take the area under those time intervals. I’m assuming 1.7 is where it crosses the x-axis

For the first interval:
Base = 1.7
Height = -2
[1.7*(-2)]/2 = -1.7 cm/s

For the second interval:
There are two triangles and a rectangle here.
Base #1 = 0.3
Height #1 = 1

Base #2 = 1
Height #2 = 1

Length = 3
Width = 1

Apply the area formulas to get an answer of 3.65 cm/s
