There's not enough information to find an answer.
I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude. This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.
Answer:
a) 2.85 kW
b) $ 432
c) $ 76.95
Explanation:
Average price of electricity = 1 $/40 MJ
Q = 20 kW
Heat energy production = 20.0 KJ/s
Coefficient of performance, K = 7
also
K=(QH)/Win
Now,
Coefficient of Performance, K = (QH)/Win = (QH)/P(in) = 20/P(in) = 7
where
P(in) is the input power
Thus,
P(in) = 20/7 = 2.85 kW
b) Cost = Energy consumed × charges
Cost = ($1/40000kWh) × (16kW × 300 × 3600s)
cost = $ 432
c) cost = (1$/40000kWh) × (2.85 kW × 200 × 3600s) = $76.95
Mass of the object m = 2.9 kg
Force F1 = 28.449 N
F1 = m1 x a => a = F / m => 28.449 / 2.9 => a = 9.81, which is gravitational acceleration.
In the same lab, a = g = 9.81, second object F2 = 48.7N = m2 x a
m2 = F2 / a => 48.7 / 9.81 => m2 = 4.96 kg
Mass of the second object m2 = 4.96 kg
Answer:
Low-cost energy. Although building nuclear power plants has a high initial cost, it’s relatively cheap to produce energy from them and they have low operating costs.
Reliable. One of the biggest benefits of nuclear energy is that it is a reliable power generation source.
Zero carbon emissions. Nuclear power reactors do not produce any carbon emissions.
Promising future energy supply.
