Two advantages: long term renewable energy and decreased carbon emissions compared to other sources.

Two disadvantages: very expensive to build and negative impacts to marine life.  

Before it could be recommended or not: Does the stream have the pressure required? What is the return on investment and over what duration factoring maintenance and potential negative impacts such as flooding should there be a problem.

2 disadvantages would be damage to Marine life and hydroelectric plants are very expensive.If they plant is not stable and breaks it can cause flash floods and property damage.2 advantages would be that they do not emit any carbon emmissions.Some cities cannot build hydroelectric power plants because  the stream does not have that kind of pressure .so really it matters greatly on where the dam would be placed. but sunny places like arizonasolar plant would be great

In billiards, the 0.165 kg cue ball is hit toward the 0.155 kg eight ball, which is stationary. The cue ball travels at 5.8 m/s
Damm [24]

Answer:

another ball velocity = 3.92 m/s and with 30° clockwise from initial direction

Explanation:

given data

mass m1 = 0.165 kg

mass m2 = 0.155 kg

before collision velocity v1 = 5.8 m/s

before collision velocity v2 = 0

angle =  35.0° from initial direction

after collision 1st ball velocity v3 = 3.2 m/s

to find out

after collision another ball velocity v4

solution

we consider here ball move in x axis and after collision 1st ball move upside of x axis with angle 35 degree and other ball move downside with x axis with angle θ

so from conservation of momentum we say

m1v1 = m1v3cos35 + m2v4cosθ   with x axis    .............1

m1v3sin35 = m2v4sinθ                   with y axis  .............2

so from 1 equation

0.165 × 5.8 = 0.165(3.2)cos35 + 0.155(v4)cosθ

v4 cosθ  = 3.38                                            .................3

form 2 equation

0.165(3.2)sin35 = 0.155(v4)sinθ  

v4 sinθ = 1.95                                              ......................4

so magnitude of another ball velocity is square and adding equation 3 and 4

another ball velocity = √(3.39²+1.96²)

another ball velocity = 3.92 m/s

and direction is tanθ = 1.96/3.39

θ = 30° clockwise from initial direction

in an exothermic chemical reaction the energy gained by the surroundings must be _______ the energy lost by the reaction
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

In an exothermic reaction the energy gained by the surroundings must be <u>equal to</u> the energy lost by the reaction.

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions occur by the loss of energy in the form of heat to the surroundings (apparatus and the system).

The heat gained can be quantitatively analysed and measured  provided no product escapes the system and it is numerically equal to the amount of heat lost by the reaction.

A wave's frequency is 2 Hz and its wavelength is 4 m. What is the wave's speed?
juin [17]

Answer:

Speed is distance over time, so v = λ / T. The frequency, f, is 1/T, so the equation relating wave speed, frequency, and wavelength is v = f λ .

Explanation:
