Answer:
Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.
Explanation:
Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.
Answer:
t = 5.05 s
Explanation:
This is a kinetic problem.
a) to solve it we must fix a reference system, let's use a fixed system on the floor where the height is 0 m
b) in this system the equations of motion are
y = v₀ t + ½ g t²
where v₀ is the initial velocity that is v₀ = 0 and g is the acceleration of gravity that always points towards the center of the Earth
e) y = 0 + ½ g t²
t = √ (2y / g)
t = √(2 125 / 9.8)
t = 5.05 s
Answer:
μ = 0.692
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and include the respective forces acting on the body. Similarly, deduce the respective equations according to the conditions of the problem and the directions of the forces.
Attached is an image with the respective forces:
A summation of forces on the Y-axis is performed equal to zero, in order to determine the normal force N. this summation is equal to zero since there is no movement on the Y-axis.
Since the body moves at a constant speed, there is no acceleration so the sum of forces on the X-axis must be equal to zero.
The frictional force is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction by the normal force. In this way, we can calculate the coefficient of friction.
The process of solving this problem can be seen in the attached image.
