Well, energy can be produced from the burning of fossil fuels which produce steam to spin turbines which generates electricity. But fossil fuels like coal and oil are no renewable.
Some renewable ways to get energy is water where they separate hydrogen from h2o because hydrogen can be made into energy. Also nuclear fission is another way to get energy. That's when in a nuclear power plant, the atoms nucleus is split which sends a large amount of energy.
Wind energy is another source of energy, which is from windmills. Another renewable energy source is solar energy. That's when u use solar cells, like some houses and calculators have, which generates a lot of energy, but only in the day since the sun doesn't shine in the nigh.

Hope I helped!!!

A 40 foot beam that weighs 125 pounds is supported at the two ends by walls. It also supports a 600 pound AC unit 5 feet from th

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

A) 588 pounds

Explanation:

According to the given conditions, we assume the beam to be simply supported at the ends carrying a uniformly distributed load of 125 pounds per feet and a point load of 600 pounds acting at 5 feet from the right support.

Referring the schematic:

<u>Moment about any point will be zero in equilibrium condition. </u>

∴Take moment about point L

$F_r\times 40=125\times 20+35\times 600$

$F_r=587.5 lb$

a 5.0 kg ball is dropped from a 2.5 m high window. what is the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground?

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Approximately $7.0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Assumption: the ball dropped with no initial velocity, and that the air resistance on this ball is negligible.

Explanation:

Assume the air resistance on the ball is negligible. Because of gravity, the ball should accelerate downwards at a constant $g = 9.81 \; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ near the surface of the earth.

For an object that is accelerating constantly,

$v^2 - u^2 = 2\, a \, x$ ,

where

$u$ is the initial velocity of the object,
$v$ is the final velocity of the object.
$a$ is its acceleration, and
$x$ is its displacement.

In this case, $x$ is the same as the change in the ball's height: $x = 2.5\; \rm m$ . By assumption, this ball was dropped with no initial velocity. As a result, $u = 0$ . Since the ball is accelerating due to gravity, $a = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

$v^2 - u^2 = 2\, g \cdot h$ .

In this case, $v$ would be the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground. Solve for

$v^2 = 2\, a\, x + u^2$ .

$\begin{aligned}v &= \sqrt{2\, a\, x + u^2} \\ &= \sqrt{2\times 9.81 \times 2.5 + 0} \\ &\approx 7.0\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .
