Physics
1 answer:
Andrews [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

3. h^2

Explanation:

Energy of volume contained in a dam is given by

E=\dfrac{1}{2}A\rho gh^2

where,

A = Horizontal surface area of the barrage

\rho = Density of water

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h =  Vertical tidal range,

It can be seen that

E\propto h^2

Hence, the energy is proportional to h^2
