The purpose of a generator is to convert mechanical energy into which of the
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

C. Electric energy

Explanation:

A generator is designed to convert chemical energy to mechanical energy  and them electrical energy.

  • It is an alternate source of electricity for most homes and industrial establishments.
  • The source of energy for the generator is a fuel usually fossil fuels.
  • This energy source is ignited and it produces heat energy which drives the motion of the pistons in the set.
  • As the piston moves, an magnetic field is cut through by a conducting wire.
  • This inducts the production of currents.

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid
mariarad [96]

Explanation:

It is given that, An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid Y, along the straight line joining the centers of the asteroids. We need to find the ratio of their masses.

As they are in equilibrium, the force of gravity due to each other is same. So,

\dfrac{Gm_xM}{r^2}=\dfrac{Gm_yM}{r^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{r_x^2}{r_y^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{140^2}{481^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=0.0847

So, the ratio of masses X/Y is 0.0847

Express each of the following in ms -1 <br>a) 18kmh-1<br>​
vovangra [49]
1km=1000m; 1hr=3600secs
1km/hr=1000/3600= 5/18m/sec
To convert km/hr into m/sec, multiply the number by 5 and then divide it by 18.

18kmh-1= 18•5=90
90/18=5
5ms-1
