The modern name, Mount St. Helen's, was given to the volcanic peak in 1792 by seafarer and explorer Captain George Vancouver of the British Royal Navy. He named it in honor of fellow countryman Alleyne Fitzherbert, who held the title 'Baron St. Helen's.

How are engineers creating clothing that can charge your cell phone. Explain the science behind their innovation.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

By the use of carbon nanotubes as the clothing material.

Explanation:

Carbon nanotubes is a technology designed by engineers that could make charging of the cell of a phone possible. It has some some required properties like it is strong, conductive and heat-resistant which are suitable for the purpose.

This technology which involves a progressive dipping of a pure cotton material into nafion polymer, then in a chemical solution of carbon nanotubes and finally in polystyrene until it becomes saturated and have a conductive property. The conductive cotton can be used to make such cloths which becomes conductive and produces some electromagnetic waves when there is a contact with sweat or fluid from the body. The waves generated can be used to charge a cell phone through radiation interaction.

Of waterfalls with a height of more than 50 m , Niagara Falls in Canada has the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Power output: W=1426.9MW

Explanation:

The power output of the falls is given mainly by its change in potential energy:

Q=-P_{tot}=-(P_{2}-P_{1})

The potential energy for any point can be calculated as:

P=m*g*h

If we consider the base of the falls to be the reference height, at point 2 h=0, so P2=0, and height at point 1 equals 52m:

Q=P_{1}=m*g*h

If we replace m with the mass rate M we obtain the rate of change in potential energy over time, so the power generated:

W=M*g*h=2.8*10^{3}m^{3}/s*1*10^{3}kg/m^{3}*9.8m/s^{2}*52m =1426.9MW

What will one see during an annular eclipse?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Partial eclipse, Annular eclipse, Total Eclipse and Hybrid Eclipse are the four different types of the eclipses. When the Sun and Moon are exactly in line with the Earth, the annular eclipse occurs. The new moon is invisible from the earth and it is silhouetted against the sun, this can only be seen in annular eclipse. Annular word means ring shaped, we can see a dark ring of fire in annular eclipse. It has five different stages that are first contact, second contact, maximum eclipse, third contact and 4th contact.

What is the car's speed at the bottom of the dip?The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier thantheir true weight a
Rashid [163]

Answer:

v = 14 m/s

Explanation:

given,

radius of dip = 40 m

The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier than their true weight.

Apparent weight

A = W + \dfrac{W}{2}

A =\dfrac{3W}{2}

A =\dfrac{3mg}{2}

When the car is at the bottom,  the weight will be acting downwards and the centripetal force will also be acting downward where as Normal force which is apparent weight will be acting in upward direction.

now,

N = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\dfrac{3mg}{2} = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\dfrac{mg}{2} = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{rg}{2}}

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{40\times 9.8}{2}}

v = 14 m/s
