Answer : First of all, to harness the solar energy and utilize it for the decomposition of water to make hydrogen fuel cell seems to be easy but practically it has many hurdles in its way. It might not work well, when the days would not be sunny. Also, the production of hydrogen fuel would require decomposing water which may need a high energy of activation, which would be more than the energy that will be produced from the fuel cell.

The challenge that scientists will face with this task is the production of hydrogen since hydrolysis or the <span>decomposition of water (H2O) requires a certain amount of energy to be supplied. Scientists should look at how much is this energy supplied. It can be more than what would be produced from the fuel cells which will eventually result to a loss.</span>

Two concrete spans of a 380 m long bridge are
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

4.163 m

Explanation:

Since the length of the bridge is

L = 380 m

And the bridge consists of 2 spans, the initial length of each span is

L_i = \frac{L}{2}=\frac{380}{2}=190 m

Due to the increase in temperature, the length of each span increases according to:

L_f = L_i(1+ \alpha \Delta T)

where

L_i = 190 m is the initial length of one span

\alpha =1.2\cdot 10^{-5} ^{\circ}C^{-1} is the temperature coefficient of thermal expansion

\Delta T=20^{\circ}C is the increase in temperature

Substituting,

L_f=(190)(1+(1.2\cdot 10^{-5})(20))=190.0456 m

By using Pythagorean's theorem, we can find by how much the height of each span rises due to this thermal expansion (in fact, the new length corresponds to the hypothenuse of a right triangle, in which the base is the original length of the spand, and the rise in heigth is the other side); so we find:

h=\sqrt{L_f^2-L_i^2}=\sqrt{(190.0456)^2-(190)^2}=4.163 m

An airplane with an airspeed of 120 km/h has a heading of 30 degree east of North in a wind that is blowing toward the east at 6
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of plane relative to ground V_pg = ?

Given the velocity in vector form ,

velocity of plane relative to air V_pw = 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j

V_wg = 60 i

V_pg = V_pw +V_wg

= 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j + 60i

= 164 i + 60 j

magnitude

=251 km / h

Enter an expression for the force constant for the floating raft, in terms of L, g, and the density of water, ρ.
andriy [413]

Answer:

K = ρL²g

Explanation:

Consider L as the length of the raft inside the water when the raft is displaced through additional distance y;

Then:

F = upthrust ( restoring force) = weight of the liquid displaced.

F = V_{\omega} \rho_{\omega} g= A y \rho_{\omega} g

where;

A = L²

\rho_{\omega} = \rho

F = ky.

Then,

Ay \rho g = ky

L^2y \rho g = ky

Divide both sides by y

K = ρL²g
