How does hydroelectric energy works?

Physics

Actually, hydroelectric and coal-fired power plants produce electricity in a similar way. In both cases a power source is used to turn a propeller-like piece called a turbine, which then turns a metal shaft in an electric generator,which is the motor that produces electricity. A coal-fired power plant uses steam to turn the turbine blades; whereas a hydroelectric plant uses falling water to turn the turbine. The results are the same. :) <span>

A paper clip that has a mass of 1.5 grams is thrown into the air and initially has a kinetic energy of 0.013 J.
Aleksandr [31]

answer

v = 4.2\frac{m}{s}

set up an equation

we can use the formula for kinetic energy since we know mass and kinetic energy

K = \frac{mv^{2}}{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }

values

K = 0.013 J

m = 1.5g = 0.0015 kg

plug in values

v = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.013}{0.0015} }

v = 4.2\frac{m}{s}

Tommy was walking at a rate of 4 miles hour at noon and at 12:30 pm he was walking at a brisk rate of 6 miles hour . Two hours l
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

B) Tommy had a positive acceleration between noon and 12:30 pm.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

In the problem,

- At noon, Tommy is walking at a velocity of 4 mi/h

- At 12.30 pm, Tommy is walking at a velocity of 6 mi/h

- A time of half an hour (0.5 h) passed between the two moments

So Tommy's acceleration is

a=\frac{6 mi/h-4 mi/h}{0.5 h}=4 mi/h^2

and the acceleration is positive, since the velocity has increased.
