7. If 8 million kg of water flows over Niagara Falls each second, calculate the power available at the bottom of the falls.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The power will be "3.92×10⁹ Watts". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values as per the question,

Rate,

= 8 million kg

Distance,

= 50 m

Gravity,

= 9.8 m/s²

As we know,

The power will be:

⇒ Power = Rate\times Distance\times  Gravity

On putting the values, we get

⇒             =  8\times 10^6\times 50\times 9.8

⇒             =3.92\times 10^9 \  Watts

If the window is 11 m above the ground, find the time the stone is in flight.
rjkz [21]
d=vi*t+(1/2)gt²

d=11 m
g=9.8 m/s²
vi=0 m/s

11 m=0 m/s*t+(1/2)9.8 m/s²t²
11 m=4.9 m/s²t²
t²=11 m / 4.9 m/s²
t=√(11 m / 4.9 m/s²)=1.489... s≈1.5 s

Answer: the time the sone is in flight is 1.5 s
