Answer: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)

Explanation:

<u>Photosynthesis</u> is a metabolic process in which light is transformed into stable chemical energy, converting inorganic matter into organic matter.

This process is mainly divided in two parts:

-Light-dependent reactions (also called light reactions)

-Light-independent reactions (also called dark reactions).

In the case of light reactions, the light is used by the plant to produce organic energy molecules, being the coenzyme Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) the final electron acceptor.

It should be noted, this coenzyme is also involved in the dark phase of photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) is fixed into carbohydrates.

Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine-generator at a site 120 m below the free surface of a large

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

P = 2234400 Watt

Explanation:

Power generation is given as rate of work done

Here the turbine generator is located at 120 m below the free surface

So here rate of work done is given as rate of potential energy

$Power = \frac{dw}{dt}$

$Power = \frac{mgh}{t}$

so we have

$Power = (\frac{dm}{dt})gh$

now we have

$Power = 1900(9.8)(120) = 2234400 Watt$

so the power generation potential will be 2234400 Watt

Can a moving object have gravitational energy?

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

It is worth noting that the higher the gravitational energy of an object moving downwards, the lower the kinetic energy, and the lower the kinetic energy of an object moving upwards, the higher its gravitational energy.

Gravitational potential energy is acquired by an object when it has been moved against a gravitational field. For example, an object raised above the surface of the Earth will gain energy, which is released if the object is allowed to fall back to the ground.

Is a baseball and cannon are dropped from the same height at the same time, which ball will hit the ground first?

lara31 [8.8K]

If you include the effects of falling through air, then you have to know the
shape, size, weight, and surface texture of the objects. You also have to
know the height from which they're dropped, and the temperature, pressure,
and humidity of the air. All these things make a difference in how they fall.

If you ignore the effects of falling through air, like build a giant metal tank
and pump all the air out of it, and ONLY talk about the effects of gravity, then
ALL OBJECTS accelerate at the same rate. If you drop two things from the
same height at the same time, then they both hit the ground at the same time,
traveling at the same speed, no matter what they are. They could be a piece of
tissue and a car !

There are several museums where they have a big glass pipe that you can
see through, and they pump the air out of the pipe and drop a feather and a
bowling ball from the top inside at the same time, and they both reach the
bottom together.

If gravity is the only force on an object, then all objects fall at the same rate.
