1000 kg of water initially at 6 m/s runs through a hydro-generator. If the water leaves the generator at velocity of 4 m/s, and

the efficiency of the generator is 100%, how much electricity in kJ (2 significant figures) will we get?

Answer:

8.00 kJ

Explanation:

The first thing is to determine what quantities are there.

the mass of water = 1 000 kg

initial velocity, u = 6 m/s

final velocity, v = 4 m/s

the generator is operating at 100 % efficiency, so there is no energy loss.

The kinetic energy, Ek is converted to electrical energy, therefore Ek = electrical energy.

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

Ek = 1/2 mv²

    = 1/2×(1 000)× (4)²

    = 8 000 J/s

    = 8.00 kJ  Ans

Answer:

86.4 m  horizontal from landing spot

Explanation:

Find out how long before the ball hits the ground

 vertical speed  of ball = -2  m/s     gravity = - 9.81 m/s^2

find time to hit ground from 100 m  

          ( height will be<u> zero</u> when it hits the ground)

<u>0 </u>=  100  - 2 t  - 1/2 ( 9.81) t^2

        use Quadratic Formula to find t = 4.32 seconds

              horizontal speed of ball = 20 m/s  

in 4.32 seconds it will travel horizontally   20  m/s * 4.32 s = 86.4 m

A period of the periodic table ends when the highest energy level of an elements atoms has __ electrons
never [62]
This is dependent on how many shells/layers/energy levels the element has. The first shell can only hold 2 electrons however every shell beyond that can hold 8 electrons

22. State any three features of the electroscope.​
MatroZZZ [7]
-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.
