When water falls through a dam and turns a turbine connected

Physics
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The energy transformations that occur is Mechanical → electrical → light.

Explanation:

  • When the water falls through the dam the gravitational potential energy of water is transformed into kinetic energy.
  • This energy rotates the turbine (mechanical energy) connected to a generator.
  • Now this mechanical energy is converted into electrical form through the process of electromagnetic induction (when a conductor cuts the magnetic field, electricity is produced).
  • The electricity thus produced is driven to different offices and houses through wires.
  • By drawing this current we light our homes and offices.

A bus contains a 1440 kg flywheel (a disk that has a 0.63 m radius) and has a total mass of 10200 kg. Calculate the angular velo
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:\omega =93.51 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of Flywheel m_1=1440 kg

mass of bus m_b=10200 kg

radius of Flywheel r=0.63 m

final speed of bus v=21 m/s

Conserving Energy i.e.

0.9(Rotational Energy of Flywheel)= change in Kinetic Energy of bus

Let \omegabe the angular velocity of Flywheel

0.9\cdot \frac{I\omega ^2}{2}=\frac{m_bv^2}{2}

I=moment\ of\ Inertia =mr^2=1440\cdot 0.63^2=571.536 kg-m^2

0.9\cdot \frac{571.536\cdot \omega ^2}{2}=\frac{10200\cdot 21^2}{2}

\omega ^2=21^2\times \frac{10200}{0.9\times 571.536}

\omega =21\times 4.45=93.51 rad/s

I REALLY NEED HELP WITH PHYSICS ASAP!!!<br>Vf^2 = v0^2 + 2a (xf - x0)<br><br><br>Solve for a
ELEN [110]

Answer:

a. solve for a

vf ^{2} = vo ^{2}  + 2a(xf - xo) \\ 2a(xf - xo) = vf^{2}    -  vo ^{2}   \\ a =  \frac{vf^{2} - vo^{2}  }{2(xf - xo)}    \\ a =  \frac{vf ^{2} - vo ^{2}  }{2xf - 2xo}

I hope I helped you ^_^
