Answer:
C. Electric energy
Explanation:
A generator is designed to convert chemical energy to mechanical energy and them electrical energy.
- It is an alternate source of electricity for most homes and industrial establishments.
- The source of energy for the generator is a fuel usually fossil fuels.
- This energy source is ignited and it produces heat energy which drives the motion of the pistons in the set.
- As the piston moves, an magnetic field is cut through by a conducting wire.
- This inducts the production of currents.
6. Drop to one quarter of its original value
Answer:
b. The horizontal component of the normal force acts toward the center of the circle.
Explanation:
When a car on a banked turn move with just the right speed so that the frictional force is zero, a component of the normal force -which is always perpendicular to the surface- acts as the centripetal force on the car. This is because the normal force now has a horizontal component, and this component supplies the centripetal force.
Complete question:
The exit nozzle in a jet engine receives air at 1200 K, 150 kPa with negligible kinetic energy. The exit pressure is 80 kPa, and the process is reversible and adiabatic. Use constant specific heat at 300 K to find the exit velocity.
Answer:
The exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
initial temperature, T₁ = 1200K
initial pressure, P₁ = 150 kPa
final pressure, P₂ = 80 kPa
specific heat at 300 K, Cp = 1004 J/kgK
k = 1.4
Calculate final temperature;
k = 1.4
Work done is given as;
inlet velocity is negligible;
Therefore, the exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
When the cannonball is shot upwards, kinetic energy converts to gravitational potential energy (GPE).
As the ball rises, speed decreases and height increases.
So when the cannonball has reached its maximum height, all of the Kinetic energy has transferred into gravitational potential energy.
(Because at the max height, the cannonball for a brief moment has no velocity, and thus no kinetic energy)
So the GPE is 48279 Joules at it's maximum height.
