The answer is it will supply 1.1 x 10⁹ J of energy each second.
we can calculate this by using the following equation;
P = W/t 
<span>W = P x t 
</span><span>and by work energy relation;
E = W = P x t
</span>1 watt = 1j/s
1megawatt = 1000000 = 10⁶ j/s
<span>E = 1100 x 106 x 1 </span>
E = 1.1 x 10⁹ J

Suzy drops a rock from the roof of her house. Mary sees the rock pass her 2.9 m tall window in 0.134 sec. From how high above th
timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

length of window h=2.9\ m

time Frame for which rock can be seen is \Delta t=0.134\ s

Suppose h is height above which rock is dropped

Time taken to cover h+2.9 is t_1

so using equation of motion

y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where  y=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

time taken to travel h  is

h=0+0.5\times g\times (t_2)^2---2

Subtract 1 and 2 we get

2.9=0.5g(t_1^2-t_2^2)

5.8=g(t_1+t_2)(t_1-t_2))

and from equation t_1-t_2=0.134\ s

so t_1+t_2=\frac{5.8}{9.8\times 0.134}

t_1+t_2=4.416\ s

and t_1=t_2+\Delta t

so t_2+\Delta t+t_2=4.416

2t_2+0.134=4.416

t_2=0.5\times 4.282

t_2=2.141\ s

substitute the value of t_2 in equation 2

h=0.5\times 9.8\times (2.141)^2

h=22.46\ m

Energy is to be stored in a flywheel in the shape of a uniform solid disk with a radius of R = 1.22 m and a mass of 67.0 kg . To
eduard

Answer: 71.7 KJ

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy of a rotating body can be written as follows:

Krot = ½ I ω2

Now, any point on the rim of the flywheel, is acted by a centripetal force, according to Newton’s 2nd Law, as follows:

Fc = m. ac

It can be showed that the centripetal acceleration, is related with the angular velocity and the radius, as follows:

ac =  ω2 r

We know that this acceleration has a limit value, so , we can take this limit to obtain a maximum value for the angular velocity also.

As the flywheel is a solid disk, the rotational inertia I is just ½ m r2.

Replacing in the expression for the Krot, we have:

Krot= ½ (1/2 mr2.ac/r) = ¼ mr ac = ¼ 67.0 Kg. 1.22 m . 3,510 m/s2 = 71. 7 KJ
