Explanation :

A hydroelectric dam is used to produce electricity. The transformation of energy that is associated with a hydroelectric dam is :

Since the water is falling from a height so at that point the potential energy of water converts into kinetic energy. The turbine attached is used to convert the energy in the water to mechanical energy.

Finally, the mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy with the help of a generator.    

Hence, the correct option is (B) " gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy into mechanical energy into electrical energy ".

adoni [48]

Answer:

The change in the charge on the positve plate when the Teflon is inserted is +2.5 nC.

Explanation:

  • It can be showed that the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, can be expresssed as follows:

       C = \frac{\epsilon*A}{d}

  • Where ε, is the dielectric constant of the material that fills the space between plates.
  • When this space is filled with air, ε= ε₀ = 8,85*10⁻¹² F/m.
  • At the same time, the capacitance of a capacitor, by definition, is as follows:

       C =\frac{Q}{V}

  • If we insert a Teflon slab, in such a way that fills completely the gap between the plates, all other parameters being equal, if ε = 2*ε₀, this means that C₂ = 2* C₁. = 50 pF
  • As V₂=V₁ (due to the capacitor remains connected to the same battery) the charge must be the double, so Q₂ = 2* Q₁ = 5 nC.
  • So, the change in the charge of the positive plate is +2.5 nC.

The complete question is shown on the

Answer:

The ascending order would be 2nd < 1st < 3rd

Explanation:

Generally the the Normal force is mathematically represented as

                      Normal \ Force  = Fsin \theta

=>                    Normal \ Force \  \alpha  \  sin \theta

For the first drawing  the value   \theta is between that of the the second and the third drawing so the Normal force would also be between the normal forces of the second and the third drawing

For the second drawing whose value of \theta is less than that of the first and the third the normal force would also be less than that of the first and third

For the the third drawing whose value is (90°) which is higher than the first and the second the normal force would also be higher than the first and the second

What are the factors that affect ocean density?<br><br> Please help!!
Paul [167]

The density of seawater plays a vital role in causing ocean currents and circulating heat because of the fact that dense water sinks below less dense. long story short, seawater is the problem because its denser than pure water.
