the strength and vitality required for sustained physical or mental activity.

"changes in the levels of vitamins can affect energy and well-being"

synonyms: vitality, vigor, life, liveliness, animation, vivacity, spirit, spiritedness, verve, enthusiasm, zest, vibrancy, spark, sparkle, effervescence, ebullience, exuberance, buoyancy, sprightliness; More

2.

power derived from the utilization of physical or chemical resources, especially to provide light and heat or to work machines.

There are no good descriptions or definitions of energy on the list of choices you provided.  A big part of the reason for this is that you didn't provide any list of choices.

In Physics, the definition of 'Energy' is '<em>The ability to do work</em>'.

A space craft is moving relative to the earth , an observer on the earth finds that, between 1pm and 2pm according to her clock,
madam [21]

The speed of the space craft relative to the earth is given as: 0.024c. This is solved using the the equation for time dilation.

<h3>What is time dilation?</h3>

Time dilation is the "slowing down" of a clock as determined by an observer in relative motion with regard to that clock under the theory of special relativity.

The formula is given as :

Δt = [Δr]/ √ 1 - (v²/c²)

Thus,

v = c√1 - (Δr/Δt)²

= c √(1 - (3600/3601)²

v = 0.024c

a rock with a mass of 10.0 kg is balanced on top of a large boulder. describe the forces acting on the rock, and use the concept
denis-greek [22]

Explanation:

The forces acting on the rock include Normal Force, Gravitational force & Friction force

It's possible for it to stay on the boulder because the normal force balances it's weight. also because static friction acts on the boulder up to it's limiting friction even if it were on an attempt to move as a result of air resistance. gravitational forces act upon it by mainly affecting it it's weight. as altitude increases, it's weight decreases since gravity varies from a height to another.

a block has a volume of 0.9m3 and a density of 4,000kg/m3. whats the force of gravity acting on the block in water?(A)3,528N(B)8
Rina8888 [55]
There is a correct answer to this question, and then there is the one they want you to choose.  Which one should I give you first ?

Let's start with the correct answer:

The force of gravity on any object is

           (mass of the object)
times
           (acceleration of gravity on the planet where the object is) .

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 m/s²,
so the force of gravity on this object is

                      (4000 kg/m³) x (0.9 m³) x (9.8 m/s²)

                 =      (3,600 kg)  x  (9.8 m/s²)

                 =          35,280 kg-m/s²    =    35,280 Newtons.

That's the force of gravity attracting this block and the Earth
toward each other.  It makes no difference whether the block
is in your bedroom closet, in the back yard under a pile of mulch,
inside a steel safe resting on a bed of styrofoam peanuts and
slivered almonds, or underwater in the neighbor's pool. 
That's the force of gravity on this block, and it's the correct answer
to the question.

It's not one of the choices, though.  That's because the question
is poorly written.  The person who wrote the question is unclear on
the concepts, and the more you work with the question, the more
unclear and confused YOU'LL become.

When the block is in water, the force of gravity on it doesn't change.
BUT ... there's ANOTHER force on it ... the buoyant force ... acting
upward on it, and canceling part of the force of gravity.

The buoyant force is the weight of the displaced water. 
The displaced water is the water that has to get out of the way
when you drop the block in, so the volume of displaced water
is the volume of the block.

-- The volume of the block is  (0.9 m³).

-- The density of water is   1000 kg/m³, so the mass of 0.9 m³ of water
is 900 kg.

-- The weight of 900 kg of water is  (mass) x (gravity)

                                                   =  (900 kg)  x  (9.8 m/s²)

                                                   =      8,820 Newtons.

When the block is in water, it feels like it's that much LIGHTER,
because that's the force of the water pushing UP on the block.
It's the same reason why your big brother seems so light in the
pool that you can pick him up and carry him. 

So how heavy does this block FEEL in water ?

The force of gravity pulling down on it:         35,280 newtons
The force of water pushing up on it:                8,820 newtons
How heavy the block feels (the difference)  26,460 newtons

The question is written so poorly that even THIS number
is not one of the choices.

Again, the thing to realize is that  being in the water does NOT
change the force of gravity on anything.  It only creates another
force, that acts against gravity.

Just like . . . When you walk up some stairs, how does it happen
that you suddenly move upward, opposite to gravity.  Does the force
of gravity acting on you change ?  No !  But you use your leg muscles
to create another force in the opposite direction, that works against
gravity, and makes you seem so light that you can actually move up,
opposite to gravity.

Large wind turbines with a power capacity of 8 MW and blade span diameters of over 160 m are available for electric power genera
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The electric power generated by the wind turbine is 1105.84 kWh

The amount of electric energy generated is 26540.17 kWh

The revenue generated per day is $2388.62

Explanation:

Consider a wind turbine with a blade

Span diameter of 100 m installed at a site

subjected to steady winds at 8 m/s

l.e wind speed v = 8 m/s

Span diameter d = 100 m

A, sweap area = πd² / 4

                        = π x 100² / 4

                        = 7853.98 m²

Lets solve for wind speed v = 8 m/s

Density of Area ρ = 1.25 kg/m³

η = 44%

P = 1/2 ρAv³η

  = 1/2 x 1.25 x 785.98 x 8³ x 44/100

  = 1/2 x 1.25 x 7853.98 x 512 x 0.44

  = 1105840.38

  = 1.10584038 mw

  = 1105.84038 kWh

  = 1105.84 kWh

Energy generated by wind turbine per day

⇒ P x H

      = 1105.84038 x 24

      = 26540.16912 kwh

      = 26540.17 kwh      

Revenue generated per day = Energy x 0.09 kwh

                                                = 26540.16912 x 0.09

                                                = $2388.615

                                                = $2388.62
