Answer: It may be unreliable.    

Explanation:

Harnessing wind a s a source of energy is very efficient and renewable. It does not produce any waste and is environment friendly energy resource because it is naturally occurring.

But it is unreliable. The wind is the motion of air from high pressure region to low pressure region. Thus, we cannot start or stop wind turbines to spin. It depends on the wind and its speed.

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

A circular ring with area 4.45 cm2 is carrying a current of 13.5 A. The ring, initially at rest, is immersed in a region of unif
Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ ) N.m

b) ΔU = -0.000747871 J

c)  w = 47.97 rad / s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The area of the circular ring, A = 4.45 cm^2

- The current carried by circular ring, I = 13.5 Amps

- The magnetic field strength, vec ( B ) = (1.05×10−2T).(12i^+3j^−4k^)

- The magnetic moment initial orientation, vec ( μi ) = μ.(−0.8i^+0.6j^)  

- The magnetic moment final orientation, vec ( μf ) = -μ k^

- The inertia of ring, T = 6.50×10^−7 kg⋅m2

Solution:-

- First we will determine the magnitude of magnetic moment ( μ ) from the following relation:

                    μ = N*I*A

Where,

           N: The number of turns

           I : Current in coil

           A: the cross sectional area of coil

- Use the given values and determine the magnitude ( μ ) for a single coil i.e ( N = 1 ):

                    μ = 1*( 13.5 ) * ( 4.45 / 100^2 )

                    μ = 0.0060075 A-m^2

- From definition the torque on the ring is the determined from cross product of the magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ). The torque on the ring in initial position:

             vec ( τi ) = vec ( μi ) x vec ( B )

              = 0.0060075*( -0.8 i^ + 0.6 j^ ) x 0.0105*( 12 i^ + 3 j^ -4 k^ )

              = ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) x ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

- Perform cross product:

          \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\-0.004806&0.0036045&0\\0.126&0.0315&-0.042\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-0.00015139\\-0.00020185\\-0.00060556\end{array}\right] \\\\

- The initial torque ( τi ) is written as follows:

           vec ( τi ) = ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ )

           

- The magnetic potential energy ( U ) is the dot product of magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ):

- The initial potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Ui ) is:

          Ui = - vec ( μi ) . vec ( B )

          Ui =- ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Ui = -[( -0.004806*0.126 ) + ( 0.0036045*0.0315 ) + ( 0*-0.042 )]

          Ui = - [(-0.000605556 + 0.00011)]

          Ui = 0.000495556 J

- The final potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Uf ) is determined in the similar manner after the ring is rotated by 90 degrees with a new magnetic moment orientation ( μf ) :

          Uf = - vec ( μf ) . vec ( B )

          Uf = - ( -0.0060075 k^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Uf = - [( 0*0.126 ) + ( 0*0.0315 ) + ( -0.0060075*-0.042 ) ]

          Uf = -0.000252315 J

- The decrease in magnetic potential energy of the ring is arithmetically determined:

          ΔU = Uf - Ui

          ΔU = -0.000252315 - 0.000495556  

          ΔU = -0.000747871 J

Answer: There was a decrease of ΔU = -0.000747871 J of potential energy stored in the ring.

- We will consider the system to be isolated from any fictitious forces and gravitational effects are negligible on the current carrying ring.

- The conservation of magnetic potential ( U ) energy in the form of Kinetic energy ( Ek ) is valid for the given application:

                Ui + Eki = Uf + Ekf

Where,

             Eki : The initial kinetic energy ( initially at rest ) = 0

             Ekf : The final kinetic energy at second position

- The loss in potential energy stored is due to the conversion of potential energy into rotational kinetic energy of current carrying ring.    

               -ΔU = Ekf

                0.5*T*w^2 = -ΔU

                w^2 = -ΔU*2 / T

Where,

                w: The angular speed at second position

               w = √(0.000747871*2 / 6.50×10^−7)

              w = 47.97 rad / s

A girl is standing 150m in front of a tall building, fires a shot with starting pistol. A boy standing 350m behind her, hears tw
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

300 m/s

Explanation:

The difference in time between the two bangs is 1 s.

Thus;

t2 - t1 = 1

We know that distance/time = speed.

Thus;

d2/v - d1/v = 1

Multiply through by v to get;

d2 - d1 = v

Where v is speed of sound in air.

d1 = 350 m

d2 = (150 × 2) + 350 = 650 m

Thus;

v = d2 - d1 = 650 - 350 = 300 m/s
