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.

A small balloon is released at a point 150 feet away from an observer, who is on level ground. If the balloon goes straight up a

Elza [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s$

Explanation:

Given that

x= 150 ft

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}= 7\ ft/s$

y= 14 ft

From the diagram

$z^2=x^2+y^2$

When ,x= 150 ft and y= 14 ft

$z^2=150^2+14^2$

$z=\sqrt{150^2+15^2}$

z=150.74 ft

$z^2=x^2+y^2$

By differentiating with respect to time t

$2z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= 2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

$z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

Here x is constant that is why

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=0$

$z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

$150.74\times \dfrac{dz}{dt}=14\times 7$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=\dfrac{14\times 7}{150.74}\ ft/s$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s$

Therefore the distance between balloon and observer increasing with 0.65 ft/s.

Prove that s=ut+½at²

katrin2010 [14]

Explanation:

Distance travelled = Area under the line

= ut + ½ (v-u)t

Acceleration (a) = (v-u)/t and so (v-u) = at

Therefore,

Distance travelled (s) = ut + ½ (v-u)t = ut + ½ (at)t = ut + ½ at²

Thus,proved.

Knowing Newton’s 2nd Law, how would you rearrange it to solve for acceleration.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Force / mass

Explanation:

Divide mass on both sides to get acceleration by itself leaving you with mass below force hence divide force by mass

Jessica is running a 10K. She alternates between running and walking each kilometer. She runs at a rate of 1 kilometer every 5 m

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

c.100 minutes

Explanation:

Total distance = 10 km

Runs for 1 km every 5 minutes

walks 1 km every 15 min

She alternates between walking and running so, Jessica will walk 5 km and run 5 Km

Time taken by Jessica for walking : 5 km

Time taken to walk 1 km=5 minutes

Time taken to walk 5 km

=> 5 X 5

=>25 minutes

Time taken by Jessica for Running : 5km

Time taken to run 1 km = 15 minutes

=> 5 X 15

=>75 minutes

Total time taken = Time taken by Jessica for walking + Time taken by Jessica for Running

=>25 minutes +75 minutes

=> 100 minutes
