Water flows from one reservoir to another a height, 41 m below. A turbine (η=0.77) generates power from this flow. 1 m3/s passes

through the turbine. If 12 m head loss occurs between the two reservoirs, determine the actual (i.e. useable) power generated by the turbine (in kW).

Complete Question

A diagram representing this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The value is P = 294594.3 \ W

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height is  h  =  41 \  m

   The efficiency of the turbine is \eta =  0.77

   The flow rate is \r  V  = 1 m^3 / s

    The head loss is  g =  2 m

Generally the head gain by the turbine is mathematically represented as      

        H  =  h -  d

=>     H  =  41 - 2

=>     H  =  39 \  m

Generally the actual power generated by the turbine is mathematically represented as

          P =  \eta  *\gamma *    \r V * H

Here \gamma is the specific density of water with value

        \gamma   =  9810 N/m^3

So

       P =0.77  *9810 *   1 *  39

       P = 294594.3 \ W

aev [14]
  • Mass=m=142kg
  • Acceleration=a=30m/s
  • Force=F

Using Newton's second law

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=ma

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=142(30)

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=4260N

Explain how the motor takes advantages of electromagnetism to work?
Ostrovityanka [42]
Answer:
When current flows through the motor, the electromagnet rotates, causing a shaft to rotate as well. The rotating shaft moves other parts of the device.

Explanation:
An electric motor is a device that uses an electromagnet to change electrical energy to kinetic energy.

An equipoterntial surface that surrounds a + 3.0 pC point charge has a radius of 2.0 cm. What is the potential of this surface?​
mestny [16]

Answer:

Electric potential = 0.00054 V

Explanation:

We are given;

Charge; q = 3 pC = 3 × 10^(-12) C

Radius; r = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Formula for the electric potential of this surface will be;

V = kqr

Where;

K is a constant = 9 × 10^(9) N⋅m²/C².

Thus;

V = 9 × 10^(9) × 3 × 10^(-12) × 0.02

V = 0.00054 V
