What is the purpose of using a generator

1 answer:

Vedmedyk [2.9K]3 years ago

The purpose of an electrical generator is to convert kinetic energy into electrical energy.

A generator is exactly the thing to use if you need more electrical energy than you have, but at the same time, you have access to something with more kinetic energy than you need.

During 9.97 seconds a motorcyclist changes his velocity from v1,x = -36.5 m/s and v1,y = 10.9 m/s to v2,x =-21.9 m/s and v2,y =

svetoff [14.1K]

Average acceleration is defined as

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

here

$v_f = final\: speed$

$v_i = initial\: speed$

$t = time$

now for x direction we can say

$a_x = \frac{v_{2x} - v_{1x}}{t}$

$a_x = \frac{-21.9 + 36.5}{9.97}$

$a_x = 1.46 m/s^2$

Similarly for Y direction

$a_y = \frac{v_{2y} - v_{1y}}{t}$

$a_y = \frac{27.5 - 10.9}{9.97}$

$a_y = 1.66 m/s^2$

so above is the acceleration in x and y directions

0.160-kg hockey puck is moving on an icy, frictionless, horizontal surface. At t 0, the puck is moving to the right at 3.00 m/s.

balandron [24]

Answer: $(a)10.812\ m/s\ (b)\ 0.75\ m/s\ \text{left}$

Explanation:

Given

Mass of hockey puck $m=0.160\ kg$

Initial velocity of hockey puck is $u=3\ m/s$

First a horizontal force of $25\ N$ is applied to the right for $0.05\ s$

acceleration associated with it is

$\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{25}{0.160}\\\\\Rightarrow a=156.5\ m/s^2$

Using equation of motion i.e.

$\Rightarrow v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=3+156.25\times 0.05\\\Rightarrow v=3+7.812\\\Rightarrow v=10.812\ m/s$

(b) When a force of $12\ N$ is applied for 0.05s

Using equation of motion i.e.

$\Rightarrow v=3-\dfrac{12}{0.160}\times 0.05\\\\\Rightarrow v=3-75\times 0.05\\\Rightarrow v=3-3.75\\\Rightarrow v=-0.75\ m/s\\\Rightarrow v=0.75\ \text{towards left}$

The thermal conductivity of a cement is 0.168 British thermal units per foot hour degree Fahrenheit [BTU divided by (ft h Super

Sliva [168]

Answer:

thermal conductivity = 0.2906 W/m.K

Explanation:

thermal conductivity = 0.168 BTU/h.ft⁰F

1 BTU/h.ft⁰F = 1.7295772056 W/m.k

0.168 BTU/h.ft⁰F = 0.168 * 1.7295772056 W/m.k

0.168 BTU/h.ft⁰F = 0.2906 W/m.k

A feather of mass 0.001 kg falls from a height of 2 m. Under realistic conditions, it experiences air resistance. Based on what

snow_tiger [21]

As per initial given conditions first we will find the initial potential energy of the feather

$U = mgh$

$m = 0.001 kg$

$g = 9.8 m/s^2$

$h = 2m$

$U = (0.001kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2m)$

$U = 0.0196 J$

now we know that few amount of its initial energy is lost in form of frictional energy loss

so remaining energy will be less than the initial potential energy

So final answer would be

<u><em>A. KE < 0.0196 J</em></u>
