Answer:

49.484 m³ / s

Explanation:

Volume flow rate = Power in W / (efficiency × density × height × acceleration due to gravity)

Volume flow rate = 100 × 10⁶ / ( 1 × 1000 kg/m³ × 206 m × 9.81 m/s²)

V = 49.484 m³ / s

Answer:

m' = 4948.38 kg/s

Explanation:

For a case of 100% efficiency, the power produced must be equal to the rate of potential energy conversion

GIVEN THAT

Power = 100 MW

rate of Potential energy = (m')*g*h

100*10^6 = (m')*9.81*206

m' = 4948.38 kg/s

what is the relationship between magnetism and electromagnetism and how does this effect voltage in a circuit?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

A magnetic field of changing intensity perpendicular to a wire will induce a voltage along the length of that wire. The amount of voltage induced depends on the rate of change of the magnetic field flux and the number of turns of wire (if coiled) exposed to the change in flux.

Consider the smoothie example given in class: Write down the production function of Tutti Frutti Smoothie example given in class
mart [117]

Answer:

Production Function : TFSq = f { ingredient 1 ...... ing. i }

Increasing/ Constant/  Increasing Returns to Scale :

Output change > / = / < Input change respectively

Explanation:

Production Function is the relationship between production inputs & outputs, given technology. It denotes the maximum output that can be generated with given inputs.

Tutti Frutti Smoothie [TFS] quantity = Function of {Ingredient1.....ingredient i}

Returns to Scale represents change in output when all inputs change in same proportion.

  • Constant Returns to Scale [CRS] : Output Change = All inputs change
  • Increasing Returns to Scale [IRS] : Output Change > All inputs change
  • Negative Returns to Scale [NRS] : Output Change < All inputs change

When all inputs (ingredients) change by same proportion i.e get twice 2X :- If output of Tutti Frutti Smoothie increases by > 2X  i.e 3X - IRS.  If it increases equal ie 2X - CRS. If it increases lesser i.e 1.5X - CRS.
