<u>Hydroelectric power,</u> also called hydropower is the electricity produced from generators driven by turbines that convert the potential energy of falling or fast-flowing water into mechanical energy.
Answer:
11.27N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the book = 1.15kg
Unknown:
Magnitude of the normal force = ?
Solution:
The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.
It can be described as the weight of an object.
Normal force = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Normal force = 1.15 x 9.8 = 11.27N
We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material
Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.
One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.
This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.
Answer:
1 mole of H2O is 18 grams (2 g H + 16 g Oxygen)
36 / 18 = 2
So 2 moles = 2 * 6.02E23 = 12.04E23 = 1.204E24
In an extremely simplified explanation,
What happens is that the steam (heat) that is generated by the burning of coal is used to rotate the motor of the steam engine.
