A wind turbine works by slowing the air that passes its blades and converting much of the extracted kinetic energy to electric e

ddd [48]

Answer:

2649600 Joules

Explanation:

Efficiency = 40%

m = Mass of air = 92000 kg

v = Velocity of wind = 12 m/s

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 92000\times 12^2\\\Rightarrow K=6624000\ J$

The kinetic energy of the wind is 6624000 Joules

The wind turbine extracts 40% of the kinetic energy of the wind

$E=0.4\times K\\\Rightarrow E=0.4\times 6624000\\\Rightarrow E=2649600\ J$

The energy extracted by the turbine every second is 2649600 Joules

A car is moving in the positive direction along a straight highway and accelerates at a constant rate while going from point A t

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The time where the avergae speed equals the instaneous speed is T/2

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is:

v(t) = v0 + at

Where v0 is the initial speed and a is the constant acceleration.

Let's find the average speed. This is given integrating the velocity from 0 to T and dividing by T:

$v_{ave} = \frac{1}{T}\int\limits^T_0 {v(t)} \, dt$

v_ave = v0+a(T/2)

We can esaily note that when t=T/2

v(T/2)=v_ave

Now we want to know where the car should be, the osition of the car is:

$x(t) = x_A + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

Where x_A is the position of point A. Therefore, the car will be at:

x(T/2) = x_A + v_0 (T/2) + (1/8)aT^2

8. Three grams of Bismuth-218 decay to 0.375 grams in one hour. What is the half-

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: 0.333 h

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the Radioactive Half Life Formula:

$A=A_{o}.2^{\frac{-t}{H}}$ (1)

Where:

$A=0.375 g$ is the final amount of the material

$A_{o}=3 g$ is the initial amount of the material

$t=1 h$ is the time elapsed

$H$ is the half life of the material (the quantity we are asked to find)

Knowing this, let's substitute the values and find $h$ from (1):

$0.375 g=(3 g)2^{\frac{-1h}{H}}$ (2)

$\frac{0.375 g}{3 g}=2^{\frac{-1h}{H}}$ (3)

Applying natural logarithm in both sides:

$ln(\frac{0.375 g}{3 g})=ln(2^{\frac{-1 h}{H}})$ (4)

$-2.079=-\frac{1 h}{H}ln(2)$ (5)

Clearing $H$ :

$H=\frac{-1h}{-2.079}(0.693)$ (6)

Finally:

$h=0.333 h$ This is the half-life of the Bismuth-218 isotope
