<h3>Answer:</h3>

5.395 × 10^8 Watts

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Rate of flow is 1.1 × 10^6 kg/s
  • Distance is 50.0 m
  • Gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s²

We are required to calculate the power that is generated by the falling water

  • Power is the rate of work done
  • It is given by dividing the energy or work done by time
  • Power = Work done ÷ time

But; work done = Force × distance

Therefore;

Power = (F × d) ÷ time

The rate is 1.1 × 10^ 6 Kg/s

But, 1 kg = 9.81 N

Therefore, the rate is equivalent to 1.079 × 10^7 N/s

Thus,

Power = Rate (N/s) × distance

           = 1.079 × 10^7 N/s × 50.0 m

           = 5.395 × 10^8 Watts

The power generated from the falling water is 5.395 × 10^8 Watts

Which of the following states of matter is always a good conductor of electricity? solid, liquid, gas, or plasma **:/ Thank you!
pogonyaev

Plasma...I believe is always a good conductor of electricity. I was tempted to say a solid, but not all solids are the same in composition and that goes for liquid and gas as well.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

Consider two ideal gases, A &amp; B, at the same temperature. The rms speed of the molecules of gas A is twice that of gas B. Ho
uysha [10]

Answer:

option (d)

Explanation:

The relation between the rms velocity and the molecular mass is given by

v   proportional to  \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}} keeping the temperature constant

So for two gases

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}

\frac{2v_{B}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}

{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}} = 4

{\frac{M_{B}}{4}} = M_{A}
