Answer:

The power in this flow is 9.56\times10^{8}\ W

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 221 m

Power output = 680 MW

Height =150 m

Average flow rate = 650 m³/s

Suppose we need to calculate the power in this flow in watt

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

Pressure=\rho g h

Where, \rho= density

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

Pressure=1000\times9.8\times150

Pressure=1470000\ Nm^2

We need to calculate the power

Using formula of power

P=Pressure\times flow\ rate

Put the value into the formula

P=1470000\times650

P=9.56\times10^{8}\ W

Hence, The power in this flow is 9.56\times10^{8}\ W

A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched string. The amplitude of this wave is 0.08190.0819 m, its frequency
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Amplitude = 0.08190 m

Frequency = 2.29 Hz

Wavelength = 1.87 m

(a). We need to calculate the shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave

Using formula of distance

d=2A

Where, d = distance

A = amplitude

Put the value into the formula

d=2\times0.08190

d=0.1638\ m

Hence, The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.

Please help. I don’t understand this
skad [1K]

The short answer is that the displacement is equal tothe area under the curve in the velocity-time graph. The region under the curve in the first 4.0 s is a triangle with height 10.0 m/s and length 4.0 s, so its area - and hence the displacement - is

1/2 • (10.0 m/s) • (4.0 s) = 20.00 m

Another way to derive this: since velocity is linear over the first 4.0 s, that means acceleration is constant. Recall that average velocity is defined as

<em>v</em> (ave) = ∆<em>x</em> / ∆<em>t</em>

and under constant acceleration,

<em>v</em> (ave) = (<em>v</em> (final) + <em>v</em> (initial)) / 2

According to the plot, with ∆<em>t</em> = 4.0 s, we have <em>v</em> (initial) = 0 and <em>v</em> (final) = 10.0 m/s, so

∆<em>x</em> / (4.0 s) = (10.0 m/s) / 2

∆<em>x</em> = ((4.0 s) • (10.0 m/s)) / 2

∆<em>x</em> = 20.00 m
