A certain dam generates 120 MJ of mechanical (hydroelectric) energy each minute. If the conversion from mechanical to electrical
Karolina [17]

Answer:

electric energy ( power ) = 300000 W

Explanation:

given data

mechanical (hydroelectric) energy = 120 MJ/min = 2000000 J/s

efficiency = 15 % = 0.15

solution

we know that Efficiency of electric engine is expression  as

Efficiency = Mechanical energy ÷ electric energy  ......................1

and here dam electrical power output is

put here value in equation 1

electric energy ( power ) = Efficiency × Mechanical energy ( power )

electric energy ( power ) = 0.15 × 2000000 J/s

electric energy ( power ) = 300000 W

A parallel circuit has three branches. Each branch has a resistance of 37.5 ohms. The total current is 7.5 amps. What is the cur
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Current in each branch will be 2.5 A

Explanation:

We have given that a circuit has three branch each has a resistance of 37.5 ohm

We have also given that a total current of 7.5 A is flows through the circuit

As we know that in parallel circuit total current is the sum of current flowing through each branch

As the resistances of each branch is same so current will also be same

As there is 3 branches in circuit so current in each branch will be \frac{7.5}{3}=2.5A

Lerok [7]

Answer:

E = 1.24MeV

Explanation:

The photon travels at the speed of light, 3.0 × 10^{8} m/s, and given that its frequency = 1 picometer = 1.0 × 10^{-12} m.

Its energy can be determined by;

E = hf

  = (hc) ÷ λ

where E is the energy, h is the Planck's constant, 6.626 × 10^{-34} Js, c is the speed of the light and f is its frequency.

Therefore,

E = (6.626 × 10^{-34}× 3.0 × 10^{8}) ÷ 1.0 × 10^{-12}

  = 1.9878 × 10^{-25} ÷ 1.0 × 10^{-12}

E = 1.9878 × 10^{-13} J

But, 1 eV = 1.6 × 10^{-19} J. So that;

E = \frac{1.9878*10^{-13} }{1.6*10^{-19} }

  = 1242375 eV

∴ E = 1.24MeV

The energy of the photon is 1.24MeV.

Maria does 500 Newton-meters of work moving books from one table to another. The total force is 100 Newtons. How far were the bo
Mazyrski [523]

The displacement of the book is 5 meters

Explanation:

The work done by a force when moving an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where :

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem, we have:

W = 500 J is the work done by Maria

F = 100 N is the force applied by Maria

\theta=0^{\circ}, assuming the direction of the force is parallel to the displacement

So we can rearrange the equation to solve for d, the displacement:

d=\frac{W}{F cos \theta}=\frac{500}{(100)(cos 0)}=5 m

So, the book was moved 5 meters.
