A) Describe the energy changes that occur in a waterwheel.

1 answer:

7 0

A) Water is moving from a point of bigger height to a point of a lower height, This changes the kinetic and potential energies of water. Some of the kinetic energy of water is transfered to a waterwheel. This causes water wheel to spin. Spining waterwheel has rotational energy. Also waterwheel is rotating around certain point. This causes friction and there is frictional energy.

B)To light LED we need electric energy. To create electric energy we need a generator. Generator consists of a rotor (a magnet) and a stator (copper wire). If we attach a magnet to waterwheel and a wire somewhere close to waterwheel the electric energy would be induced. This energy can be used to light LED.

An object is dropped from a platform 100 feet high. Ignoring wind resistance, what will its speed be when it reaches the ground?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Use III equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2g h

Here, U = 0, g = 32 ft/s^2, h = 100 ft

V^2 = 0 + 2 × 32 ×100

V^2 = 6400

V = 80 ft/s

In which one of the following situations does a car have a WESTWARD acceleration? The car travels westward and slows down. The c

DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Let east direction is negative and west direction is positive. The acceleration of an object is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

Where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

t is the time taken

As the car decelerates, the final speed of the car is less as compared to the initial speed. As a result, its acceleration is negative. It means the car travels eastward and slows down. Hence, this is the required solution.
