How do you transfer kinetic energy to electrical energy using a generator system

Answer:

A turbine converts the potential and kinetic energy of a moving fluid (liquid or gas) to mechanical energy. In a turbine generator, a moving fluid—such as water, steam, combustion gases, or air—pushes a series of blades mounted on a shaft, which rotates the shaft connected to a generator

Explanation:

A common method of producing electricity is from generators with an electromagnet—a magnet produced by electricity—not a traditional magnet. The generator has a series of insulated coils of wire that form a stationary cylinder. This cylinder surrounds a rotary electromagnetic shaft. When the electromagnetic shaft rotates, it induces a small electric current in each section of the wire coil. Each section of the wire coil becomes a small, separate electric conductor. The small currents of the individual sections combine to form one large current. This current is the electricity that moves through power lines from generators to consumers.

Electric generator

Most of U.S. electricity generation is from electric power plants that use a turbine or similar machine to drive electricity generators.

A turbine converts the potential and kinetic energy of a moving fluid (liquid or gas) to mechanical energy. In a turbine generator, a moving fluid—such as water, steam, combustion gases, or air—pushes a series of blades mounted on a shaft, which rotates the shaft connected to a generator. The generator, in turn, converts the mechanical energy to electrical energy based on the relationship between magnetism and electricity.

Answer: so when a turbine converts the K.E and the potential of any moving fluid (more likely liquid or gas) to energy. once the proc is started the turbine generato, the fluid such as water, steam, combus gasses, or air pushes s big series of blades that have mounted on a shaft, which then will rotate the shaft that’s conn to the generator

The equation for the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the earth depends on mass. Which mass?
katovenus [111]
<h3><u>Question: </u></h3>

The equation for the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth depends on mass. Which mass?

a. The mass of the sun

b. The mass of the satellite

c. The mass of the Earth

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

The equation for the speed of a satellite orbiting in a circular path around the earth depends upon the mass of Earth.

Option c

<h3><u> Explanation: </u></h3>

Any particular body performing circular motion has a centripetal force in picture. In this case of a satellite revolving in a circular orbit around the earth, the necessary centripetal force is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and earth. Hence F_{G} = F_{C}.

Gravitational force between Earth and Satellite: F_{G} = \frac{G \times M_e \times M_s}{R^2}

Centripetal force of Satellite :F_C = \frac{M_s \times V^2}{R}

Where G = Gravitational Constant

M_e= Mass of Earth

M_s= Mass of satellite

R= Radius of satellite’s circular orbit

V = Speed of satellite

Equating  F_G = F_C, we get  

Speed of Satellite V =\frac{\sqrt{G \times M_e}}{R}

Thus the speed of satellite depends only on the mass of Earth.
