The main (and only) purpose of the turbine in the turbo jet engine is to drive the air compressor. The turbojet engine works by compressing the air using an inlet and a compressor, then mixing the fuel with the compressed air, then passing the mixture to the combustor, then passing the high pressure air through a turbine and a nozzle.

Answer:

(a) 46.94 J.

(b) 55.95 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

Potential Energy: This is the energy of a body, due to its position. The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).

The formula of potential energy in a stretched spring is

Ep = 1/2ke² .......................... Equation 1

Where Ep = potential energy of the spring, k = Force constant of the spring, e = extension or compression.

Given: k = 425 N/m, e = 0.47 m.

Substitute into equation 1

Ep = 1/2(425×0.47²)

Ep = 46.94 J.

(b)

at the instant When the arrow leaves the bow, the potential energy of the arrow is converted kinetic energy of the bow.

I.e,

Ep = 1/2mv² ............. Equation 2

Where m = mass of the arrow, v = velocity of the arrow.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2Ep/m)............. Equation 3

Given: Ep = 46.94 J, m = 0.03 Kg.

Substitute into equation 3

v = √(2×46.96/0.03)

v = √(93.92/0.03)

v = √(3130.67)

v = 55.95 m/s

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec

igomit [66]

Answer:

The maximum electric power output is $P_{max} =1.339*10^{9} \ W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The capacity of the hydroelectric plant is $\frac{V}{t} = 690 \ m^3 /s$

The level at which water is been released is $h = 220 \ m$

The efficiency is $\eta =$ 0.90

The electric power output is mathematically represented as

$P = \frac{PE_l - PE _o}{t}$

Where $PE_l$ is the potential energy at level h which is mathematically evaluated as

$PE_l = mgh$

and $PE_o$ is the potential energy at ground level which is mathematically evaluated as

$PE_o = mg(0)$

$PE_o = 0$

$P = \frac{mgh}{t}$

here $m = V * \rho$

where V is volume and $\rho$ is density of water whose value is $\rho = 1000 kg/m^3$

$P = \frac{(\rho * V) * gh}{t}$

$P = \frac{V}{t} * gh \rho$

substituting values

$P =690 * 9.8 * 220 * 1000$

$P =1.488*10^{9} \ W$

The maximum possible electric power output is

$P_{max} = P * \eta$

substituting values

$P_{max} =1.488*10^{9} * 0.90$

$P_{max} =1.339*10^{9} \ W$

1 Weather-Weather is the state of the atmosphere, describing for example the degree to which it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy

2 How much money do you make?

a Without the atmosphere, average temperature on Earth would be freezing! Below zero to be exact!

b The atmosphere protects us and animals from dangerous radiation from the Sun. Ultraviolet radiation is basically invisible rays of energy created by the sun.

cAlso, the atmosphere provides oxygen for humans and animals to breathe and C02 (Carbon dioxide) for plants.

4 warmth

5 yes it is The water on our Earth today is the same water that’s been here for nearly 5 billion years. Only a tiny bit of it has escaped out into space. As far as we know, new water hasn’t formed either.

That means there’s a very high chance the water in your glass is what thirsty dinosaurs were gulping about 65 million years ago.

Describe a change caused by kinetic energy as well as a change that involves potential energy

kykrilka [37]

Kinetic energy is formed when the object is in motion.
Potential energy is the energy that is formed relative to others.

One of the example is Corn flour factory.

Corn turned into flour by a windmill that moved by the waterfall. Movement of the mill is relative to the power given by waterfall (potential energy) and the spinning crushes the corn into flour (kinetic energy)
