Answer:

volume of water is 1066.50 acre feet

Explanation:

given data

dia = 2 in = 0.166 feet

area = 26 km² = 26 × 247.105 acre = 6424.73 acre

to find out

volume of water

solution

we know volume of water is express as

volume = area × dia     ....................1

put here value in equation 1

volume = 6424.73 acre × 0.166 feet

volume = 1066.50

so volume of water is 1066.50 acre feet

True or false energy is always lost in a circuit
Llana [10]

Explanation:

Electrons will gain energy as they are "pushed" from different points in the circuit. This energy is then lost when the electrons flow through circuit components such as a light bulb.

You would like a pendulum that swings back and forth once every 2 seconds, but the one you have swings once every 1.9 seconds. W
patriot [66]

Your pendulum does a complete swing in 1.9 seconds.  You want to SLOW IT DOWN so it takes 2.0 seconds.

Longer pendulums swing slower.

You need to <em>make your pendulum slightly longer</em>.

If your pendulum is hanging by a thread or a thin string, then its speed doesn't depend at all on the weight at the bottom.  You can add weight or cut some off, and it won't change the speed a bit.

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave from a radio station passes perpendicularly through an open window that has area 0.320 m2. at
AlexFokin [52]
Remember, half of the energy in an EM wave is in the E field, the rest is in the B field. Thus, multiply E field energy by 2.
To calculate the energy of the wave you must then use the following equation: W = A*t*c*2*(1/2*E^2*Eo). Where, A = Area, t = time, c = speed of light (which is a constant), E = Electric field, E0 = vacuum permittivity (8.85*10^-12 Nm^2/C^2). Substituting W =(0.320)*(26)*(3*10^8)*(2)*((1/2)*(1.95*10^-2)^2*(8.854*10^-12)) = 8.40*10^-6 J
