What type of power plant burns material to make electricity?

Physics
1 answer:
Y_Kistochka [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A fossil fuel power station is a thermal power station which burns a fossil fuel, such as coal or natural gas, to produce electricity. Fossil fuel power stations have machinery to convert the heat energy of combustion into mechanical energy, which then operates an electrical generator.

Answer:

Potential energy of spring = 24 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant = 85N/m

Extension, e = 0.75m

Mass = 25kg

To find the potential energy of a spring

Potential energy of a spring is given by the formula;

P.E = ½ke²

Substituting into the equation, we have

P.E = ½*85*0.75²

P.E = 42.5 * 0.5625

P.E = 23.91 ≈ 24 Joules

P.E = 24 Joules

What is the difference between condensation and precipitation
Alexxandr [17]

Explanation:

The water cycle is based on three parts;

1. Evaporation

2. Condensation

3. Participation

Condensation:

It is the process in which water vapor changes into liquid water or in other words, it is the transition from the gaseous state to liquid state.

Precipitation:

It is the process in which any liquid or frozen water such as snow that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth

Condensation depends on temperature and pressure whereas precipitation depends on the temperature and the concentration of the solution.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 1.9 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.042 m, using a string of length 0
padilas [110]

Answer: T= 715 N

Explanation:

The only external force (neglecting gravity) acting on the swinging mass, is the centripetal force, which. in this case, is represented by the tension in the string, so we can say:

T = mv² / r

At the moment that the mass be released, it wil continue moving in a straight line at the same tangential speed that it had just an instant before, which is the same speed included in the centripetal force expression.

So the kinetic energy will be the following:

K = 1/2 m v² = 15. 0 J

Solving for v², and replacing in the expression for T:

T = 1.9 Kg (3.97)² m²/s² / 0.042 m = 715 N

A sled with no initial velocity accelerates at a rate of 3.2 m/s2 down a hill. How long does it take the sled to go 15 m to the
grin007 [14]
S = ut + 1/2 at^2
a = 3.2 m/s^2
s = 15m
Find t
15 = 1/2(3.2)t^2
15 = 3.2t^2/2
30 = 3.2t^2
30/ 3.2 = 9.38
Square root of 9.38 = 3.06
It takes 3.06 seconds
