Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.
Answer:
20cm
Explanation:
A convex lens has a positive focal length and the object placed in front of it produce both virtual and real image <em>(image distance can be negative or positive depending on the nature of the image</em>).
According to the lens equation
where;
f is the focal length of the lens
u is the object distance
v is the image distance
If the magnification is - 0.6
mag = v/u = -0.5
v = -0.5u
since v = 10cm
10 = -0.5u
u = -10/0.5
u =-20 cm
Substitute u = -20cm ( due to negative magnification)and v = 10cm into the lens formula to get the focal length f

Hence the focal length of the convex lens is 20cm
Recall the definition of the cross product with respect to the unit vectors:
i × i = j × j = k × k = 0
i × j = k
j × k = i
k × i = j
and that the product is anticommutative, so that for any two vectors u and v, we have u × v = - (v × u). (This essentially takes care of part (b).)
Now, given a = 8i + j - 2k and b = 5i - 3j + k, we have
a × b = (8i + j - 2k) × (5i - 3j + k)
a × b = 40 (i × i) + 5 (j × i) - 10 (k × i)
… … … … - 24 (i × j) - 3 (j × j) + 6 (k × j)
… … … … + 8 (i × k) + (j × k) - 2 (k × k)
a × b = - 5 (i × j) - 10 (k × i) - 24 (i × j) - 6 (j × k) - 8 (k × i) + (j × k)
a × b = - 5k - 10j - 24k - 6i - 8j + i
a × b = -5i - 18j - 29k
Answer:
Pascal's principle, also called Pascal's law, in fluid (gas or liquid) mechanics, statement that, in a fluid at rest in a closed container, a pressure change in one part is transmitted without loss to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the container
Answer:
x = 5.79 m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the car = 39000 Kg
spring constant = 5.7 x 10⁵ N/m
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
height of the track = 25 m
length of spring compressed = ?
using conservation of energy
potential energy is converted into spring energy




x = 5.79 m
the spring is compressed to x = 5.79 m to stop the car.
