<span>The correct answer is: (D) Generator

Explanation:
In wind-powered systems, the wind energy turns the blades around the rotor of a wind turbine. That rotor is connected to a generator that generates electricity. In other words, the kinectic energy of the wind is converted into electrical energy by using the generator in the wind-powered systems.</span>

Answer:

C) TURBINE

Explanation:

As we know that wind powered system is used to generate electricity using wind energy.

Here wind powered system has different components

1) Blades: these are long plates connected to the turbine. when these plates encountered high speed wind they start rotating on its axle.

This will produce kinetic energy in the axle which is transferred to the turbine.

2) Turbine: It is used to convert mechanical energy of the wind into useful electrical energy.

This is continuously driven by the kinetic energy of wind

So here correct answer is

C) Turbine

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planetary satellite that has a radius of 1.74 × 10^6 m and a mass of 7.35 × 10^22 k

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2.87 km/s

Explanation:

radius of planet, R = 1.74 x 10^6 m

Mass of planet, M = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

height, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m

G = 6.67 x 106-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Use teh formula for acceleration due to gravity

$g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}$

$g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{1.74^{2}\times 10^{12}}$

g = 1.62 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = ?, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m , final velocity, v = 0

Use third equation of motion

$v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh$

0 = v² - 2 x 1.62 x 2.55 x 10^6

v² = 8262000

v = 2874.37 m/s

v = 2.87 km/s

Thus, the initial speed should be 2.87 km/s.
