The power output of a typical large power plant is 1000 megawatts (MW). Express this result in W, kW, and GW

1 answer:

6 0

1 kilowatt = 1 thousand watts
1 megawatt = 1 million watts = 1,000 kilowatts
1 gigawatt = 1 billion watts = 1,000 megawatts = 1 million kilowatts

1,000 megawatts = 1 gigawatt = 1 million kilowatts = 1 billion watts

What contributes did Galileo make to the model of the Solar System?

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Galileo first discovered that the Moon had mountains just like Earth. He also discovered 4 of Jupiter's moons. Using his telescope, Galileo made many observations of our Solar System. He came to believe that the idea that the Sun and other planets orbited around the Earth was not correct.

A current of 200 mA through a conductor converts 40 joules of electrical energy into heat in 30 second

Komok [63]

Answer:

V = 6.65 [volt]

Explanation:

First, we must calculate the power by means of the following equation, where the voltage is related to the energy produced or consumed in a given time.

$P=E/t\\P = 40/30\\P = 1.33[s]$

Using the power we can calculate the voltage, by means of the following equation that relates the voltage to the current.

$P=V*I$

where:

V = voltage [Volts]

I = current = 200 [mA] = 0.2 [A]

$V = 1.33/0.2\\V = 6.65 [volt]$

A 0.80 kg basketball traveling upward at 5.0 m/s impacts an 8.0 10 kg tennis ball traveling downward at 5.0 m/s. The basketball’

vlabodo [156]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. This can be defined as the product between the mass and the velocity of each object, and by conservation it will be understood that the amount of the initial momentum is equal to the amount of the final momentum. By the law of conservation of momentum,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Here,

$m_1$ = Mass of Basketball

$m_2$ = Mass of Tennis ball

$u_1$ = Initial velocity of Basketball

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of Tennis ball

$v_1$ = Final velocity of Basketball

$v_2$ = Final velocity of the tennis ball

Replacing,

$(0.8)(0.5)+(0.1)(-5.0)=(0.8)(0.3)+(0.1)v_2$

Solving for the final velocity of the tennis ball

$v_2 = 11m/s^2$

Therefore the velocity of the tennis ball after collision is 11 m/s

What is umax,c, the value of the maximum energy stored in the capacitor during one cycle?

TiliK225 [7]

1) 0.266 H

2) 0.040 J

3) $0.308\Omega$

Explanation:

The diagram of the circuit is missing: find it in attachment.

1) What is L, the value of the inductance of the circuit?

For an RLC circuit, the resonant angular frequency is given by:

$\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}$

where

L is the inductance of the circuit

C is the capacitance of the circuit

In this problem, we have:

$\omega=164 rad/s$ is the angular frequency of the generator, at which the circuit is in resonance

$C=140 \mu F = 140\cdot 10^{-6}F$ is the capacitance

Therefore, solving for L, we find the inductance of the circuit:

$L=\frac{1}{\omega^2 C}=\frac{1}{(164)^2(140\cdot 10^{-6})}=0.266 H$

2) What is umax,c, the value of the maximum energy stored in the capacitor during one cycle

The maximum energy stored in a capacitor is given by the equation

$U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2$

where

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

V is the maximum potential difference across the capacitor

Here we have:

$C=140 \mu F = 140\cdot 10^{-6}F$ is the capacitance

$V=24 V$ is the maximum voltage across the capacitor, which is the emf of the generator

Substituting, we find:

$U=\frac{1}{2}(140\cdot 10^{-6})(24)^2=0.040 J$

3) What is R, the value of the resistance of the circuit?

Here we want to find the resistance of the circuit.

The resistance of the circuit can be found by using Ohm's Law:

$V=RI$

where

V is the maximum voltage

R is the resistance

I is the maximum current

Here we have:

V = 24 V is the maximum voltage provided by the generator

I = 0.78 A is the maximum current in the circuit

Solving for R, we find the resistance:

$R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{0.24}{0.78}=0.308\Omega$
