What does it mean that a form of energy might take more energy to harness than it provides? Are renewable resources always renew

able, or can they become non-renewable? Why aren't renewable resources used for everything that we use energy for? Explain.

A form of energy might take more energy to harness than it provides because of dissipated energy. During the transformation process, not all of the energy will be converted to useful energy. Some of the energy are dissipated in the form of heat. Renewable resources are resources that are replenished at a faster rate than they are used. They become non-renewable when these resources are used up at a faster rate than they are replenished. We don't use renewable resources for everything that we use energy for because the energy transformation might be inefficient or requires a lot of capital and maintenance.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Velocity is 134.16 m/s

Explanation:

Slow moving water pressure is the dynamic pressure. Dynamic pressure is actually the kinetic energy per unit volume of a fluid particle. It is equal to the difference between stagnation pressure and static pressure and also can be derived from Bernoulli's equation.

Formula for Dynamic Pressure (P) is

               P = 0.5 d v²

Where d is density of fluid and v is the velocity.

Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

P = 9000000 Pa

V = ?

                      P = 0.5 d v²  

         9000000 = 0.5 × 1000 × v²

                       v = √(9000000 ÷ 500)

                       v = 134.16 m/s

El muelle de un dinamómetro se alarga 6cm cuando aplicamos sobre él una fuerza de 10 N. Calcula el alargamiento del muelle al ap
Crank

Answer:

x = 12cm

Explanation:

First, with the values given for the force and the displacement, you calculate the spring-constant of the dynamometer by using the following equation (primero, con los valores dados de la fuerza y el desplazamiento, calculas la constante del resorte aplicando la siguiente formula):

F=kx

F: force (fuerza) = 10N

k: spring constant (constante del resorte)

x: displacement of the spring (desplazamiento del resorte) = 6cm

by using these values you calculate k (usando estos valores calculas k):

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{10N}{6cm}=1.66\frac{N}{cm}

With this value you calculate the displacement for a force of 20N (con este valor de k calculas el desplazamiento del resorte para una fuerza de 20N):

x=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{20}{1.66N/cm}=12cm

hence, the displacement is 12cm

so i did this thing and idk how it happened but basically i put foil inside the tip of my computer charger while it was charging
just olya [345]

Answer:

It was most likely static electricity

Explanation:

Static electricity comes down to the interactive force between electrical charges.

So because your computer charger has electricity the foil is a conductor so the sparks were most likely static electricity

Steam at 4 MPa and 400C enters a nozzle steadily with a velocity of 60 m/s, and it leaves at 2 MPa and 300C. The inlet area of
frez [133]

Answer:

(A) 4.09 kg/s

(B) 589.9 m/s

(C)   0.0008707 m^{3} =  8.71 cm^{2}

Explanation:

inlet pressure of steam (P1) = 4 MPa

inlet temperature of steam (T1) = 400 degree celcius

inlet velocity (V1) = 60 m/s

outlet pressure (P2) = 2 MPa

outlet temperature (T2) = 300 degree celcius

inlet area (A1) = 50 cm^{2} = 0.005 m^{2}

rate of heat loss (Q) = 75 kJ/s

(A) mass flow rate (m) = \frac{A1 x V1}{α1}

where the initial specific volume (α1) for the given temperature and pressure is gotten from tables A-6 = 0.07343 m^3/kg

m = \frac{0.005 x 60}{0.07343}

m = 4.09 kg/s

(B) we can get the outlet velocity using the energy balance equation

  E in = E out

   m(h1 + \frac{(V1)^{2}}{2}) =  m(h2 + \frac{(V2)^{2}}{2})

V2 = \sqrt{2(h1 - h2) +(V1)^{2} - 2\frac{Q}{m}

where h1 and h2 are the enthalpies and are gotten from table A-6

V2 = \sqrt{2 x 1000 x(3214.5 - 3024.2) +(60)^{2} - 2\frac{75 x 1000}{4.09}

V2 = 589.9 m/s  

(C) the outlet area is gotten from mass flow rate (m) = \frac{A2 x V2}{α}

  A2 = (α2 x m) / V2

where the initial specific volume (α2) for the given temperature and pressure is gotten from tables A-6 = 0.12552 m^3/kg

A2 = (0.12552 x 4.09) / 589.5 = 0.0008707 m^{3} =  8.71 cm^{2}

A 12.0N force with a fixed orientation does work on a
kvasek [131]

Answer:

(a) \theta=62.31^{\circ}

(b) \theta=117.68^{\circ}

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the particle, F = 12 N

Displacement of the particle, d=(2.00i -4.00j+3.00k)\ m

Magnitude of displacement, d=\sqrt{2^2+4^2+3^2}= 5.38\ m

(a) If the change in the kinetic energy of the particle is +30 J. The work done by the particle is given by :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

\theta is the angle between force and the displacement

According to work energy theorem, the charge in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the work done.

So,

cos\theta=\dfrac{W}{Fd}

cos\theta=\dfrac{+30\ J}{12\times 5.38}

\theta=62.31^{\circ}

(b) If the change in the kinetic energy of the particle is (-30) J. The work done by the particle is given by :

cos\theta=\dfrac{W}{Fd}

cos\theta=\dfrac{-30\ J}{12\times 5.38}

\theta=117.68^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.
