Answer:
First law: kinetic energy is used to turn an electric generator
Second law: some thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics is known as the law of conservation of energy. It states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, the kinetic energy of the steam is used to turn the electric generator (thereby producing electrical energy).
The second law of thermodynamics states that energy transfer or transformation leads to an increase in entropy resulting in the loss of energy. This law also states that as energy is transferred or transformed, some is lost in a form that is unusable. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, some of the thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system.
Answer:
The maximum electric power output is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The capacity of the hydroelectric plant is 
The level at which water is been released is 
The efficiency is 
0.90
The electric power output is mathematically represented as
Where 
is the potential energy at level h which is mathematically evaluated as
and 
is the potential energy at ground level which is mathematically evaluated as
So
here 
where V is volume and 
is density of water whose value is 
So
substituting values
The maximum possible electric power output is
substituting values
Answer:
It depends if they have the same lightbulb in them.
Explanation:
347÷134=2.589552239 meters per second
2.589552239×60= 155.3731343 meters per hour
155.3731343 meters per hour= 0.096544389701642 miles per hour
hopefully this was right.
