Hot water, as in very hot water, goes to steam with an enormous change in volume and pressure. This is capable of driving turbine blades, which in turn rotate enormous copper (eg) wired coils in enormous magnetic fields. This in turn produces electricity via electromagnetic induction and Fleming's right hand (I think it is) DYNAMO rule. That goes down miles and mile of v heavy conducting wire/cable as electricity.

An airplane during departure has a constant acceleration of 3 m / s².

Rama09 [41]

Constant acceleration of plane = 3m/s²

a) Speed of the plane after 4s

Acceleration = speed/time

3m/s² = speed/4s

S = 12m/s

The speed of the plane after 4s is 12m/s.

b) Flight point will be termed as the point the plane got initial speed, u, 20m/s

Find speed after 8s, v

a = 3m/s²

from,

a = v - u

3 = v - 20

24 = v - 20

v = 44m/s

After 8s the plane would've 44m/s speed.

A ball is dropped from a window and takes two seconds to reach the ground .it starts from rest and reaches a final speed of 20m/

Akimi4 [234]

The ball can't reach the speed of 20 m/s in two seconds, unless you THROW it down from the window with a little bit of initial speed. If you just drop it, then the highest speed it can have after two seconds is 19.6 m/s .

If an object starts from rest and its speed after 2 seconds is 20 m/s, then its acceleration is 20/2 = 10 m/s^2 .

(Gravity on Earth is only 9.8 m/s^2.)
