I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. An impact of a thermoelectric power plant on the environment would be it <span>uses a lot of water which will significantly decrease the supply and amount of water available for use. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. </span>

Answer: It increases the air temperature.

Explanation:

A thermal power station is a power house in which heat energy is converted into electrical energy. In these power plants generally the water is heated so as to obtain the thermal energy in the form of steam which when spins in a steam turbine can be used to generate electricity in a generator.

As the heat energy is obtain from a boiling water that is in the form of stream. Therefore, it is expected to increase the surrounding air temperature.

Technician A says that torque-to-yield head bolts are special bolts that are reusable. Technician A says that main bearing clear
Blizzard [7]

Answer: D

Neither A nor B

Explanation:

In order to check the clearances for rod and main bearings, you need a set of micrometers and a dial-bore gauge

Measuring the inside diameter of a main or rod bearing will require a dial bore gauge. The best ones to use are accurate down to 0.0001-inch.

So, both technician A and B are incorrect

The peak magnetic field strength in a residential microwave oven is 9. 2 x 10-5 t. what is the intensity of the microwave?
Alexandra [31]

The intensity of the microwave is 10.09 × 10⁵ W/m².

The unit of magnetic induction is the tesla (T). The magnetizing force, which induces the lines of force through a material, is called the field intensity, H (or H-field), and by convention has the units ampere per meter (A m−1) .

The portion of a material's magnetic field that results from an external current and is not intrinsic to the material itself is known as the magnetic field strength, also known as magnetic intensity or magnetic field intensity. It is measured in amperes per meter and represented as the vector H.

Magnetic Field, B = 9.2 × 10⁻⁵ T

I_{avg} = \frac{CB_0^2}{2\mu _0}

       = \frac{(2.998*10^8 m/s) (9.2 * 10^-^5 T)^2}{2 ( 4\pi  * 10^-^7)}

      = 10.09 × 10^5 \frac{W}{m^2}

Therefore, the intensity of the microwave is 10.09 × 10⁵ W/m².

A 14,700 N car is traveling at 25 m/s. The brakes are applied suddenly, and the car slides to a stop. The average braking force
Vlada [557]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

vo = 25 m/sec 
<span>vf = 0 m/sec </span>
<span>Fμ = 7100 N (Force due to friction) </span>
<span>Fg = 14700 N </span>
<span>With the force due to gravity, you can find the mass of the car: </span>
<span>F = ma </span>
<span>14700 N = m (9.8 m/sec²) </span>
<span>m = 1500 kg </span>
<span>Now, we can use the equation again to find the deacceleration due to friction: </span>
<span>F = ma </span>
<span>7100 N = (1500 kg) a </span>
<span>a = 4.73333333333 m/sec² </span>
<span>And now, we can use a velocity formula to find the distance traveled: </span>
<span>vf² = vo² + 2a∆d </span>
<span>0 = (25 m/sec)² + 2 (-4.73333333333 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>0 = 625 m²/sec² + (-9.466666666667 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>-625 m²/sec² = (-9.466666666667 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>∆d = 66.0211267605634 m </span>
<span>∆d = 66.02 m</span>
