Water that flows from behind a large dam can cause machines to produce electricity. What change takes place?

1 answer:

8 0

The mechanical energy in the falling water is used to spin the generator, and gets transformed into electrical energy. That's the first choice on the list.

How to calculate kinetic energy given mass and velocity

sashaice [31]

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

A flutist assembles her flute in a room where the speed of sound is 342m/s . When she plays the note A, it is in perfect tune wi

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a.3Hz

b.0.0034m

Explanation:

First, we know the flute is an open pipe, because open pipe as both end open and a close organ pipe as only one end close.

The formula relating the length and he frequency is giving as

$f=\frac{nv}{2l}\\$ .

a.we first determine the length of the flute at the fundamental frequency i.e when n=1 and when the speed is in the 342m/s

Hence from

$f=\frac{nv}{2l}\\\\l=\frac{342}{2*440}\\ l=0.389m\\$ .

since the value of the length will remain constant, we now use the value to determine the frequency when the air becomes hotter and the speed becomes 345m/s.

$f=\frac{nv}{2l} \\f=\frac{345}{2*0.389}\\f=443.4Hz$

Hence the require beat is

$B=/f_{1}-f_{2}/\\B=/440-443/\\B=3Hz$ .

b. since the length is dependent also on the speed and frequency, we determine the new length when she plays with a fundamental frequency when the speed of sound is 345m/s

using the formula

$L_{new}=\frac{v}{2f}\\\\L_{new}=\frac{345}{2*440}\\\\L_{new}=0.39204$
