The water behind Hoover Dam in Nevada is 221 m higher than the Colorado River below it. At what rate must water pass through the

hydraulic turbines of this dam to produce 50 MW of power if the turbines are 100 percent efficient?

Answer:

23.06262m^3/s

Explanation:

The volume flow rate of the water is determined from the needed power output and the elevation difference:

Where, height (h) =221m, power(w)=50MW=50*10^6w

Density of water (ρ)=1000kg/m^3

Efficiency of turbine(η)=100%=1

V=W/ρηgh

=50*10^6m^3/(1)*(1000)*(9.81)*(221)s=23.06262m^3/s

the velocity of a particle is given by v=16t^2i+4t^3j+(5t+2k) m/s, where t is in seconds. if the particle is at the origin when
pshichka [43]

Answer:

80.16 m/s^2

at t=2 s

x=42.3 m

y=16 m

z=14 m

Explanation:

solution

The x,y,z components of the velocity are donated by the i,j,k vectors.

v_{x}=16t^{2}  \\v_{y}=4t^{3}\\v_{z}=5t+2

acceleration is a derivative of velocity with respect to time.

a_{x}=\frac{d}{dt} v_{x}=\frac{d}{dt}[16t^{2}]=32t\\a_{y}=\frac{d}{dt} v_{y}=\frac{d}{dt}[4t^{3}]=12t^{2} \\a_{z}=\frac{d}{dt} v_{z}=\frac{d}{dt}[5t+2]=5

evaluate acceleration at 2 seconds

a_{x} =32*2=64m/s^{2}\\ a_{y} =12*2^{2} =48m/s^{2}\\a_{z} =5m/s^{2}

the magnitude of the acceleration is the square root of the sum of the square of each component of the acceleration.

=\sqrt{a_{x}^2 +a_{y}^2+a_{z} ^2 } \\=\sqrt{64^2 +48^2+5 ^2 }\\=80.16m/s^2

position is the integral of velocity with respect to time position at a time can be found by taking by taking the definite intergral of each component.

x=\int\limits {v_{x} } \, dx=\int\limits^2_0 {{16t^2} \, dt=42.7m\\\\y=\int\limits {v_{y} } \, dx=\int\limits^2_0 {{4t^3} \, dt=16m\\\\\\\\\\z=\int\limits {v_{z} } \, dx=\int\limits^2_0 {{5t+2} \, dt=14m\\\\

The volume of microbial culture is observed to increase according to the formula
saw5 [17]

The expression of V(m³)=e^(t(s)) to make V in in³ and t in minutes is;

V(in³) = (¹/₆₁₀₂₄)ae^{\frac{1}{60}bt(h)

We are given that;

Volume of microbial culture is observed to increase according to the formula;

V = e^(t)

where;

t is in seconds

V is in m³

We want to now express V in in³ and t in minutes.

Now, from conversions;

1 m³ = 61024 in³

Also; 1 second = 1/60 minutes

according to formula for exponential decay, we know that;

V = ae^(bt)

Thus, we have;

61024V = ae^(¹/₆₀b(t(h))

V(in³) = (¹/₆₁₀₂₄)ae^{\frac{1}{60}bt(h)
