What is one difference between using a solar cell for electricity and using a windmill?

Physics
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Solar cell generates DC

Windmill generates AC

Explanation:

Solar cell generates DC from the panel, to use this DC for electricity it has to be passed to an inverter which convert DC to AC.

Windmill generates AC from the wind blades. This type of energy can be used directly with household appliances using AC, or passed to a rectifier to convert it to DC.

A projectile is fired at an upward angle of 45.0º from the top of a 265-m cliff with a speed of .sm 185 What will be its speed w
nignag [31]

The final velocity of the projectile when it strikes the ground below is 198.51 m/s.

<h3>Time of motion of the projectile</h3>

The time taken for the projectile to fall to the ground is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

where;

  • h is height of the cliff
  • v is velocity
  • t is time of motion

265 = (185 x sin45)t + (0.5)(9.8)t²

265 = 130.8t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 130.8t - 265 = 0

solve the quadratic equation using formula method,

t = 1.89 s

<h3>Final velocity of the projectile</h3>

vyf = vyi + gt

where;

  • vyf is the final vertical velocity
  • vyi is initial vertical velocity

vyf = (185 x sin45) + (9.8 x 1.89)

vyf = 149.322 m/s

vxf = vxi

where;

  • vxf is the final horizontal velocity
  • vxi is the initial horizontal velocity

vxf = 185 x cos(45)

vxf = 130.8 m/s

vf = √(vyf² + vxf²)

where;

  • vf is the speed of the projectile when it strikes the ground below

vf = √(149.322²  +  130.8²)

vf = 198.51 m/s

A block weighing 9.3 N requires a force of 3.7 N to push it along at constant velocity. What is the coefficient of friction for
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

0.398

Explanation:

According to friction, the frictional force is directly proportional to the normal reaction

Ff = nR

Ff is the frictional force

n is the coefficient of friction

R is the reaction

Reaction is equal to the weight

R= W = 9.3N

Fm = Ff = 3.7N

Fm is the moving force

Get the coefficient of friction

n = Ff/R

n = 3.7/9.3

n = 0.398

Hence the coefficient of friction for the surface is 0.398
