Answer:

A turbine spins the water to generate electricity.

Explanation:

This is impoundment facility is called a hydro electric power dam, it is basically a big hydropower system which uses the dam to store river water in a reservoir. The water released from the reservoir flows directly through a turbine, the turbine spins it, which afterwards activates a generator to generate electricity.

Which applied force will allow a 7.65 kg block of ice to begin sliding on a sheet of ice? The block of ice has a kinetic coeffic
Anni [7]

Answer:

force for start moving is 7.49 N

force for moving constant velocity 2.25 N

Explanation:

given data

mass = 7.65 kg

kinetic coefficient of friction = 0.030

static coefficient of friction = 0.10

solution

we get here first weight of block of ice that is

weight of block of ice = mass  ×  g

weight of block of ice = 7.65 × 9.8 = 74.97 N

so here Ff = Fa

so for force for start moving is

Fa = weight × static coefficient of friction  

Fa = 74.97 × 0.10

Fa =  7.49 N

and

force for moving constant velocity is

Fa =  weight × kinetic coefficient of friction

Fa = 74.97 × 0.030

Fa = 2.25 N

THE NUMERICAL RATIO OF DISPLACEMENT TO DISTANCE IS:​
Tamiku [17]

There's no general rule.  

Displacement is the length of a straight line from start to finish, and distance is how far you actually traveled from start to finish.

The only thing we really know is that distance can never be shorter than displacement.  So I guess the answer is:

<em>The numerical ratio of displacement to distance is always 1 or less</em>.

(But it has to be written ALL IN CAPITALS.)
