Answer:

<em>The power generated is =  5.33×10⁸ Watt. </em>

Explanation:

Power: Power can be defined as the time rate of doing work. The S.I unit of power is <em>Watt(W).</em>

<em>Mathematically,</em>

<em>Power (P) = Work done/time or Energy/time</em>

P = mgh/t............................... Equation 1

P = δgh............................. Equation 2

Where δ = fall rate, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.

<em>Given: </em>δ = 1.1×10⁶ kg/s, h = 49.4 m g = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting these values into equation 2

P = 1.1×10⁶×49.4×9.81

P = 533.08×10⁶

<em>P = 5.33×10⁸ Watt.</em>

<em>Thus the power generated is =  5.33×10⁸ Watt. </em>

) The velocity function is v(t)=−t2+3t−2v(t)=−t2+3t−2 for a particle moving along a line. Find the displacement (net distance co
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

89.87m/s

Explanation:

Given the velocity function

v(t)=−t²+3t−2

In order to get the displacement function, we will integrate the velocity function as shown:

\int\limits^5_{-2} {v(t)} \, dt \\d(t)= \int\limits^5_{-2}{(-t^2+3t+2)} \, dt \\\\d(t)=[\frac{-t^3}{3}+\frac{3t^2}{2}+2t  ]^5_{-2}\\

at t = 5

d(5)=[\frac{-5^3}{3}+\frac{3(5)^2}{2}+2(5)  ]\\d(5)=[\frac{-125}{3}+\frac{75}{2}+10  ]\\d(5)=-41.7+37.5+10\\d(5)=89.2m/s

at t = -2

d(-2)=[\frac{-(-2)^3}{3}+\frac{3(-2)^2}{2}+2(-2)  ]\\d(-2)=[\frac{-8}{3}+\frac{12}{2}+(-4)  ]\\d(-2)=-2.67+6-4\\d(-2)=-0.67m/s

Required displacement = d(5) - d(-2)

Required displacement = 89.2 - (-0.67)

Required displacement = 89.2 + 0.67

Required displacement = 89.87m/s

Define the term acceleration due to gravity
kifflom [539]

Answer

Acceleration

Acceleration Means rate of Change of velocity with respect to time.

acceleration due to gravity

when a body falls freely means no other force act on it except gravitational force that time velocity of object does not remains constant but it changes as it approaches towards the ground it means body get accelerated  and this acceleration which is gained by the body due to gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity it is denoted by g. Acceleration due to gravity is different on different planet. SI unit of  is m/s^2 . On earth its standard value is 9.80665m/s^2.
