It is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum.
Answer:
Mechanical energy is the ordered movement of the molecules as a single unit. Thermal energy is the random movement of the molecules. Mechanical energy can be 100% converted to thermal energy, but thermal energy cannot be fully converted to mechanical energy.
Answer:
12.245m3
Explanation:
The electric energy is created by The potential energy substended by the specific volume of water in dam.
Electric energy is calculated as
E= Q× V
E is Energy, Q is charge and V is Voltage
Note that this energy has been given and is 60Joules
From conservation of energy it means;
M× g×h = 60
Where M is the mass of water.
g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity which is 9.8m/S2
h is the height of water flow.
From change of subject of formula for M; we have:
M = 60/ g × h
= 60/ 9.8 × 0.5
= 12.245kg
Now how much water required means the volume of water;
Note density = mass/volume
Therefore volume = mass/density
=12.245/1= 12.245m3
Note the density of water is 1kg/m3
Answer:
R = 35.27 Ohms
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Voltage = 230V
Power = 1500W
To find the resistance, R;
Power = V²/R
Where:
V is the voltage measured in volts.
R is the resistance measured in ohms.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
1500 = 230²/R
Cross-multiplying, we have;
1500R = 52900
R = 52900/1500
R = 35.27 Ohms.
Therefore, the resistance which the heating element needs to have is 35.27 Ohms.
