Answer:

Power= 6.84×10⁸ W

Explanation:

Given Data

Niagara falls at rate of=1.4×10⁶ kg/s

falls=49.8 m

To find

Power Generated

Solution

Regarding this problem

GPE (gravitational potential energy) declines each second is given from that you will  find much the kinetic energy of the falling water is increasing each second.

So power can be found by follow

Power= dE/dt = d/dt (mgh)

Power= gh dm/dt

Power= 1.4×10⁶ kg/s × 9.81 m/s² × 49.8 m

Power= 6.84×10⁸ W

For the circuit shown in (Figure 1), find the potential difference between points a and b. Each resistor has
Lynna [10]

The potential difference between points a and b is zero.

<h3>Total emf of the series circuit</h3>

The total emf in the circuit is the sum of all the emf in the circuit.

emf(total) = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3.0 V

<h3>Potential difference</h3>

The potential difference between two points, a and b is calculated as follows;

V(ab) = Va - Vb

V(ab) = 1.5 - 1.5

V(ab) = 0

Thus, the potential difference between points a and b is zero.

miskamm [114]

The centripetal force experienced by the towel is 55 N.

The given parameters;

  • angular speed of the washing machine, ω = 200 rpm
  • radius of the machine' drum, r = 0.5 m
  • mass of the towel, m = 0.25 kg

The centripetal force experienced by the towel spinning along the walls of the drum is calculated as follows;

Fc = mrω²

where;

<em>Fc is the centripetal force</em>

<em>ω is angular speed in rad/s</em>

The angular speed in rad/s is calculate as;

\omega = \frac{200 \ rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} \times \frac{1\min}{60 \ s} \\\\\omega = 20.95 \ rad/s

The centripetal force experienced by the towel is calculated as;

F_c = mr\omega ^2\\\\F_c = 0.25 \times 0.5 \times (20.95)^2\\\\F_c = 54.9 \ N \ \approx 55 \ N

Thus, the centripetal force experienced by the towel is 55 N.
