How much carbon dioxide (co2) does natural gas emit compared with other fossil fuel

1 answer:

5 0

Natural gas is a fossil fuel, though the global warming emissions from its combustion are much lower than those from coal or oil. Natural gas emits 50 to 60 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted in a new, efficient natural gaspower plant compared with emissions from a typical new coal plant.

A 70.0 kg astronaut is training for accelerations that he will experience upon reentry. He is placed in a centrifuge (r = 15.0 m

Levart [38]

Answer:

1.3823 rad/s

20.7345 m/s

28.66129935 m/s²

$a=2.92164g$

2006.29095 N radially outward

Explanation:

r = Radius = 15 m

m = Mass of person = 70 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Angular velocity is given by

$\omega=13.2\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}\\\Rightarrow \omega=1.3823\ rad/s$

Angular velocity is 1.3823 rad/s

Linear velocity is given by

$v=r\omega\\\Rightarrow v=15\times 1.3823\\\Rightarrow v=20.7345\ m/s$

The linear velocity is 20.7345 m/s

Centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=r\omega^2\\\Rightarrow a_c=15\times 1.3823^2\\\Rightarrow a_c=28.66129935\ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration is 28.66129935 m/s²

Acceleration in terms of g

$\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{28.66129935}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=2.92164g$

$a=2.92164g$

Centripetal force is given by

$F_c=ma_c\\\Rightarrow F_c=70\times 28.66129935\\\Rightarrow F_c=2006.29095\ N$

The centripetal force is 2006.29095 N radially outward

The torque will be experienced when the centrifuge is speeding up of slowing down i.e., when it is accelerating and decelerating.

A child (approximately 4 years old) takes her metal “slinky Toy” (a flexible coiled metal spring) and does various tests to dete

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

248

Explanation:

L = Inductance of the slinky = 130 μH = 130 x 10⁻⁶ H

$l$ = length of the slinky = 3 m

N = number of turns in the slinky

r = radius of slinky = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Area of slinky is given as

A = πr²

A = (3.14) (0.04)²

A = 0.005024 m²

Inductance is given as

$L = \frac{\mu _{o}N^{2}A}{l}$

$130\times 10^{-6} = \frac{(12.56\times 10^{-7})N^{2}(0.005024)}{3}$

N = 248

When the mirror is rotated, the normal will turn as well, but will the incident Ray and reflected ray turn?

Inessa [10]

When a mirror is rotated . . .

-- The incident ray doesn't turn. It's just the line from the source to the mirror.
It would be there, in the same place, even if there was no mirror.

-- The normal turns. It's the line perpendicular to the mirror, so it must turn
with the mirror.

-- Since the normal tuns and the incident ray doesn't, the angle between them
must change. And since the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of
the incident ray, the reflected ray must also turn.
