Answer:

60m/s

Explanation:

initial energy = final energy

g.p.e = k.e

k.e = 0.5 × mass × velocity²

g.p.e = 990000J as per Question

990000Nm = 0.5 × 550 × V²

V² = 3600

V = 60m/s

In a natural gas power plant, natural gas is burned to heat steam, which turns a turbine. What energy conversion is happening in
Irina18 [472]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is A. Chemical energy to heat energy to kinetic energy to electrical energy.

<h2>Why?</h2>

Let's check the energy conversion given in the statement:

Chemical energy: Chemical energy is usually obtained from a natural resource combustion. For this particular case is the result of natural gas combustion.

Heat energy: Heat energy comes from chemical reactions such as natural gas combustions.

Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy is obtained by turbines transforming the pressurized steam on mechanical movement. Turbines are formed by a turbine that absorbs the heat energy to do mechanical work and transmit it to an output rotating shaft.

Electrical energy: Electrical energy is generated by gas turbines when the rotating output shaft is connected to an electrical generator. Electrical generators use mechanical energy to generate electrical energy by using electromagnetic induction. Electrical generators are basically formed by a rotor and a stator.

Have a nice day!

peach pie in a 9.00 in diameter plate is placed upon a rotating tray. Then, the tray is rotated such that the rim of the pie pla
zavuch27 [327]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the peach pie, d = 9 inches

Radius of the pie, r = 4.5 inches

The tray is rotated such that the rim of the pie plate moves through a distance of 183 inches, d = 183 inches

Let \theta is the angular distance that the pie plate has moved through.

It is given by :

\theta=\dfrac{d}{r}

\theta=\dfrac{183}{4.5}  

\theta=40.66\ radian

Since, 1 radian = 57.29 degrees

\theta=2329.64\ degrees

Since, 1 radian = 0.159155 revolution

\theta=6.47124\ revolution

Hence, this is the required solution.

A thundercloud has an electric charge of 48.8 C near the top of the cloud and –41.7 C near the bottom of the cloud. The magnitud
IceJOKER [234]

Answer: 1.51 km

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law:</u> The electrostatic force between two charge particles Q: and Q2 is directly proportional to product of magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to square of separation distance between them.

Or,   \vec{F}=k \frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where Q1 and Q2 are magnitude of two charges and r is distance between them:

<u>Given:</u>

Q1 = Charge near top of cloud = 48.8 C

Q2 = Charge near the bottom of cloud = -41.7 C

Force between charge at top and bottom of cloud (i.e. between Q: and Q2) (F) = 7.98 x 10^6N

k = 8.99 x 109Nm^2/C^2

<u>So,</u>

\begin{aligned}&7.98 \times 10^{6}=\left(8.99 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} / \mathrm{C}^{2}\right) \frac{48.8 \mathrm{C} \times 41.7 \mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{r}^{2}} \\&r=\sqrt{\frac{1.8294 \times 10^{13}}{7.98 \times 10^{6}}}=1.514  \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}=1.51 \mathrm{~km}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the separation between the two charges (r) = 1.51 km

What is the wavelength of a wave if its frequency is 256 Hz and speed of the wave is 350 m/s?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for this is

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} where f is the frequency, v is the velocity, and lambda is the wavelength. Filling in:

256=\frac{350}{\lambda} and

\lambda=\frac{350}{256} which means that

the wavelength is 1.37 m, rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
