The correct answer to the question is D). Kinetic to electrical.
EXPLANATION:
Hydro electric power plants are the electricity generation plants which capture the energy of falling water to produce current.
The water present at the top of a dam has potential energy. When the water is allowed to fall from certain height, the potential energy of the water is converted into kinetic energy.
The falling water moving with high speed is allowed to fall on a turbine. The kinetic energy of the water will rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which will produce electricity due to the electromagnetic induction.
Hence, we see that the kinetic energy of the water is converted into electric energy.
264 km
72 x 3 hr = 216 km
72/60 (min in an hr) = 1.2(km per min) x 40 = 48 km
216 + 48 = 264
Answer:
<u>20 Minutes</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Well we know Mph (Miles per hour) is distance over time : 
R (rate) = 60
d (distance) = 20
t (time) = Unknown
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
R = 
↓
60 = 
↓
t = 
↓
t = 
or 0.3333
<em>So basically it would take one third of an hour. Lets change these units to minutes.</em>
60 * 0.333333 = 20
<em>So it would take you </em><u><em>20 minutes</em></u><em> to drive 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 mph</em>

Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be 
times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is 
the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where 
is the brightness, 
is the star luminosity and 
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b) 
and 
where 
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem. 
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:
c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is 
. Then
Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
Answer:
the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15
Explanation:
Given that;
speed of car V = 120 km/h = 33.3333 m/s
Reaction time of an alert driver = 0.8 sec
Reaction time of an alert driver = 3 sec
extra time taken by sleepy driver over an alert driver = 3 - 0.8 = 2.2 sec
now, extra distance that car will travel in case of sleepy driver will be'
S_d = V × 2.2 sec
S_d = 33.3333 m/s × 2.2 sec
S_d = 73.3333 m
hence, number of car of additional car length n will be;
n = S_n / car length
n = 73.3333 m / 5m
n = 14.666 ≈ 15
Therefore, the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15
