We know that the electric field is equal to 1 E 6 V/m
The distance between the thundercloud and the ground is 1.6km = 1600m
Electric field = Voltage/distance
This means that the breakdown voltage must be equal to
V = 1 E 6 V/m * 1600m = 1.6 E 9 V = 1.6 GV
Answer:
Add Ff from Fa
Explanation:
Fnet = sum of all force
horizontal net force = Ff + Fa
Answer:
A wind turbine captures the wind, which then produces a renewable energy source. The wind makes the rotor spin; as the rotor spins, the movement of the blades drives a generator that creates energy. The motion of the blades turning is kinetic energy. It is this power that we convert into electricity.
Answer:
6400 m
Explanation:
You need to use the bulk modulus, K:
K = ρ dP/dρ
where ρ is density and P is pressure
Since ρ is changing by very little, we can say:
K ≈ ρ ΔP/Δρ
Therefore, solving for ΔP:
ΔP = K Δρ / ρ
We can calculate K from Young's modulus (E) and Poisson's ratio (ν):
K = E / (3 (1 - 2ν))
Substituting:
ΔP = E / (3 (1 - 2ν)) (Δρ / ρ)
Before compression:
ρ = m / V
After compression:
ρ+Δρ = m / (V - 0.001 V)
ρ+Δρ = m / (0.999 V)
ρ+Δρ = ρ / 0.999
1 + (Δρ/ρ) = 1 / 0.999
Δρ/ρ = (1 / 0.999) - 1
Δρ/ρ = 0.001 / 0.999
Given:
E = 69 GPa = 69×10⁹ Pa
ν = 0.32
ΔP = 69×10⁹ Pa / (3 (1 - 2×0.32)) (0.001/0.999)
ΔP = 64.0×10⁶ Pa
If we assume seawater density is constant at 1027 kg/m³, then:
ρgh = P
(1027 kg/m³) (9.81 m/s²) h = 64.0×10⁶ Pa
h = 6350 m
Rounded to two sig-figs, the ocean depth at which the sphere's volume is reduced by 0.10% is approximately 6400 m.
Answer:
Wavelength λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m
Explanation:
From De Broglie's equation;
λ = h/mv
Where;
λ = wavelength in meters
h = plank's constant = 6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s
m = mass in kg
v = velocity in m/s
Given;
v = 24 mi/h
Converting to m/s
v = 24mi/h × 0.447 m/s ×1/(mi/h)
v = 10.73m/s
m = 84.5kg
Substituting the values into the equation;
λ = (6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s)/(84.5kg × 10.73m/s)
λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m
