Answer:

See the complete table below.

Explanation:

Hydroelectricity = Potential energy to electrical energy.

Photovoltaic solar energy = Radiant energy to electrical energy.

Solar thermal energy = Thermal energy to electrical energy.

Note: The difference between thermal solar energy and photovoltaic solar energy is that, for photovoltaic energy special panels should be used that convert the solar incidence into electrical energy, while solar energy panels are used to heat water or other similar fluid, either for hot water supply or steam generation, to supply this to a turbine.

A spacecraft is fueled using hydrazine (N2H4; molecular weight of 32 grams per mole [g/mol]) and carries 1640 kilograms [kg] of

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The value is $t = 689.029 \ hours$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The molar mass of hydrazine is $Z = 32 g/mol = \frac{32}{1000} = 0.032 \ kg/mol$

The initial temperature is $T_i = -186 ^o F = (-186-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 152\ K$

The final temperature is $T_f = 78 ^o F = (78-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 298.7 \ K$

The specific heat capacity is $c_h = 0.099 [kJ/(mol K)] = 0.099 *10^3 J/(mol/K)$

The power available is $P = 300 \ W$

The mass of the fuel is $m = 1640 \ kg$

Generally the number of moles of hydrazine present is

$n = \frac{m}{Z}$

=> $n = \frac{1640}{= 0.032}$

=> $n = 51250 \ mol$

Generally the quantity of heat energy needed is mathematically represented as

$Q = n * c_h * (T_f -T_i)$

=> $Q = 51250 * 0.099 *10^3 * (298.7 - 152)$

=> $Q = 7.441516913 * 10^{8} \ J$

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{Q}{P}$

=> $t = \frac{7.441516913 * 10^{8} }{300}$

=> t = 2480505.6377 s

Converting to hours

$t = \frac{2480505.6377}{3600}$

=> $t = 689.029 \ hours$

A 0.12 kg body undergoes simple harmonic motion of amplitude 8.5 cm and period 0.20 s. (a) What is themagnitude of the maximum f

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 0.12 kg

Amplitude ,A= 8.5 cm

time period ,T = 0.2 s

We know that

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}$

${\omega}=\dfrac{2\pi }{0.2}\ rad/s$

${\omega}=31.41\ rad/s$

We know that

${\omega}^2=m\ K$

K=Spring constant

$K=\dfrac{\omega^2}{m}$

$K=\dfrac{31.41^2}{0.12}\ N/m$

K=8221.56 N/m

The maximum force F

F= K A

F= 8221.56 x 0.085 N

F=698.83 N

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

Calculate the amount of heat (kcal) released when 50.0g of steam at 100*c hits the skin, condenses, and cools to a body temperat

luda_lava [24]

As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:

Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ
