This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e

Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

$P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p$

where $\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$ is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and $C_p = 0.45$ is the efficiency

$10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45$

$10000 = 190A$

$A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2$

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

$\pi r^2 = A = 52.7$

$r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79$

$r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m$

A person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force. The force with which the earth is attract

suter [353]

Answer:

800 N

Explanation:

By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.

Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.

The bending of light as it passes into a transparent material of different optical intensity is known as A. conversion. B. aberr

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

D. refraction

Explanation:

Refraction: Refraction is change in direction of light rays. Refraction occurs whenever light rays travels from a transparent medium to another transparent medium of different density. The abrupt change in direction at the surface of the surface of the two media is referred to as refraction.

Refraction occurs when light travels from air to glass or from air to liquid.

Laws Of Refraction:

(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal, all at the point of incident lies in the same plane.

(ii) The ratio of the sine of the angle of incident to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media.

Thus the right option is D. refraction

A helicopter flies with an air speed of 175 km/h, heading south. The wind is blowing at 85 km/h to the east relative to the grou

spayn [35]

Answer:

154° at 195 km/h

Explanation:

The helicopter is moving south at 175 km/h, relative to the wind.

But the wind is moving east at 85 km/h, relative to the ground.

This means that the helicopter is moving south east relative to the ground.

Every hour, the helicopter will move 175 km to the south and 85 km to the east, relative to the ground.

This means that we can determine the speed and direction of the helicopter using a right triangle and simple trigonometry.

Refer to the triangle b1.

The distance traveled by the helicopter in 1 hour is denoted by d.

d is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can calculate d to be 195 km (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Hence the helicopter is traveling at 195 km/h relative to the ground.

To calculate the direction we use,

tan (x) = opposite/adjacent = 85/175

So the angle x is,

$x = arctan (\frac{85}{175} )$ = 25.9°

Relative to the North, the helicopter is moving at 180° - 25.9° = 154° (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Thomas and John are carrying a 43kg cylinder head on a 510cm X 510mm board. The cylinder head with dimensions of 43cm X 250mm li

tatyana61 [14]

John carry the heaviest load.

<h3>How to find out who is carrying the heavy load?</h3>

Write down given data from questions:

Board=510cm X 510mm.

Cylinder head with dimensions=43cm X 250mm.

Cylinder lies across the board 210cm from john.

Find out: Who is carry the heaviest load?

Calculation:

We assume that mass of cylinder head = x kg

Then weight=x x 9*81

W=9.81x Newton.

Weight per unit length= Weight/Total leanth

Weight per unit length= 9.81x/43

(w/l)=0.23x N/cm

From equation contition: $(F_{J} +F_{T} =9.81x n)$

$F_{T} (510)=9.81x$ (210+21.5)

$F_{T} (510)=9.81 x (231.5)$

$F_{T} =4.452x N.$

$F_{J} =9.81x-4.452x$

$F_{J} =5.358 xN$

Therefore $F_{J} \geq F_{T}$
