1. A large turbine has an initial angular momentum of 6700 kgm^2/s. A storm is rolling in and the wind picks up. 8 seconds later

the angular momentum of the turbine is 8800 kgm^2/s. What is the torque acting on the turbine

LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

262.5 Nm

Explanation:

Torque is the rate of change of angular momentum.

Hence, we have

\tau = \dfrac{\Delta L}{t}

Δ<em>L</em> is the change in angular momentum.

Using values in the question,

\tau = \dfrac{8800-6700 \text{ kg m}^2\text{/s}}{8\text{ s}}  = 262.5 \text{ Nm}

A large magnetic flux change through a coil must induce a greater emf in the coil than a small flux change. A) True B) False
bixtya [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Faraday's law gives the relationship between the induced emf and the rate of change of magnetic flux i.e.

\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}

The given statement "A large magnetic flux change through a coil must induce a greater emf in the coil than a small flux change" is false. The reason is that if the rate of change of magnetic flux is greater, then its will induce more emf. It would mean it does not say about emf.

Hence, it is false.

One difference between a solar flare and a CME is that a solar flare is composed of ___________, while a CME is composed of ____
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

magnetic energy (proton) and magnetic plasma.

Explanation:

  • The solar fare consists of bright light that occurs in various wavelengths and is observed at the surface.
  • They are not as strong as compared to the coronal mass ejection or CME. The solar fares consist of 10²² joules, while the plasma is ejected from the solar corona and can be clearly seen from a distance.
  • The Solar flares represent an atmospheric disturbance and plasms are the medium for the growth and development of solar flare and lead to solar activity.

A neutron star and a black hole are 3.34 x 1012 m from each other at a certain point in their orbit. The neutron star has a mass
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

  F=1.65 x 10²⁶ N

Explanation:

Given that

Distance ,R= 3.34 x 10¹² m

Mass m₁= 2.78 x 10³⁰ kg

Mass ,m₂= 9.94 x 10³⁰ kg

we know that gravitational force F given as

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{R^2}

G=Constant

G=6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Now by putting the values

F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{30}\times 9.94\times 10^{30}}{(3.34\times 10^{12})^2}\ N

F=1.65 x 10²⁶ N

Therefore the force between these two mass will be 1.65 x 10²⁶ N.

A woman is running around a playground while keeping an eye on her child who is on a swing set. The child is going back and fort
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

(a) 1500 m

(b) 2827.43m

Explanation:

Given that the time for one cycle of the swing is 1 s

The radius of the swing, R= 3.0m

The angle covered, \theta, by each swing is a quarter of the circle. i.e.

\Theta=\frac {\pi}{2}

Speed of running of women =5 m/s.

Time of running = 5 minutes= 5 x 60 secondes= 300 s.

(a) As distance= (speed) x (time)

So, the required distance= 5 x 300 m= 1500 m.

(b) As there are two swings in one cycle, so, the distance covered in one swing is the length of the circular shown in the figure.

As arc length, l= \theta R, where \theta is the angle, in radian, subtended by the arc at the center, and R is the radius of curvature of the arc.

So, the distance covered by the child in 1 swing = \frac {\pi}{2}\times 3 m=\frac{3\pi}{2}m.

In 1 cycle, there are 2 swings, so distance covered in 1 cycle = 3 \pi m.

Now, in 1 second there is 1 cycle, so in 5 minutes there will be 300 cycles.

So, the total distance covered by the child

= 3\pi\times 300 m= 2827.43 m.

Evaluate the use of hydrogen as a fuel. Explain how hydrogen is produced. Write about the environmental impact of using diesel a
nadya68 [22]

Explanation:

hydrogen is primarily produce by steam reforming of natural gas... Methane reacts with steam under 3 -25 bar pressure in the presence of a catalyst to "Produce Hydrogen " , carbon monoxide, and the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. For steam to proceed, heat must be supplied to the process. Furthermore , new research from Transport & Environment shows that diesel cars not only pollute the air but also emit more climate change emissions (co2) than petroleum gas cars whenever compared to diesel fueled vehicles lifetime. In fact, diesel engines emits 3.65 tonnes of co2 more than a petrol engine equivalent.
