A river flowing steadily at a rate of 175 m3/s is considered for hydroelectric power generation. It is determined that a dam can

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts

Explanation:

The formula for power is P= dhrg

Where P = Power in watts

d = density of water (1000 kg/m^3)

h = height in meters

r = flow rate in cubic meters per second,

g = acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s^2,

Plugging in the known values,

we get

P = 1000 kg/m^3 * 80 m * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 80000 kg/m^2 * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 14000000 kg m/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 137200000 kg m^2/s^3

P = 137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts

The above figure assumes 100% efficiency which is impossible. A good efficiency would be 90% so the actual power available would be close to 0.90 * 137200 = 123480 kilowatts

The first ionization energy of a hydrogen atom is 2.18 aj (attojoules). what is the frequency and wavelength, in nanometers, of

jasenka [17]

1) Frequency: $3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz$

the energy of the photon absorbed must be equal to the ionization enegy of the atom, which is

$E=2.18 aJ=2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J$

The energy of a photon is given by

$E=hf$

where $h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js$ is the Planck's constant. By using the energy written above and by re-arranging thsi formula, we can calculate the frequency of the photon:

$f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js}=3.29\cdot 10^{15} Hz$

2) Wavelength: 91.2 nm

The wavelength of the photon can be found from its frequency, by using the following relationship:

$\lambda=\frac{c}{f}$

where $c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light and f is the frequency. Substituting the frequency, we find

$\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz}=9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m=91.2 nm$

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub

aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse ( $F \times t$ ). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,
