To calculate the wavelength, the formula to use is:

Wavelength = Speed / Frequency

Wavelength = 15 km/s / 9 Hz

Wavelength = 1.6666666667 or 1.67 km

The standard unit for Wavelength is meter so the final answer would be 1666.67 meters

Identify solar, wind, nuclear, and tidal power as nonrenewable or renewable energy
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Renewable energy: Tidal, solar and wind

Non renewable energy: nuclear power

Explanation:

Renewable energy is any energy in which its source is always replenished or renewed.

While non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished or renewed immediately because of its limited availability of resources.

Most renewable energy sources are natural sources.

Solar, tidal and wind energy are renewable energy known as clean energy. While nuclear energy is a non renewable energy in which its source of energy is fuel ( uranium e.t.c)

A flywheel with a diameter of 1.42 m is rotating at an angular speed of 207 rev/min. (a) What is the angular speed of the flywhe
Archy [21]

Answer:

a. 21.68 rad/s b. 30.78 m/s c. 897 rev/min² d. 1085 revolutions

Explanation:

a. Its angular speed in radians per second  ω = angular speed in rev/min × 2π/60 = 207 rev/min × 2π/60 = 21.68 rad/s

b. The linear speed of a point on the flywheel is gotten from v = rω where r = radius of flywheel = 1.42 m

So, v = rω = 1.42 m × 21.68 rad/s = 30.78 m/s

c. Using α = (ω₁ - ω)/t where α = angular acceleration of flywheel, ω = initial angular speed of wheel in rev/min = 21.68 rad/s = 207 rev/min, ω₁ = final angular speed of wheel in rev/min = 1410 rev/min = 147.65 rad/s, t = time in minutes = 80.5/60 min = 1.342 min

α = (ω₁ - ω)/t

  = (1410 - 207)/(80.5/60)

  = 60(1410 - 207)/80.5

  = 60(1203)80.5

  = 896.65 rev/min² ≅ 897 rev/min²

d. Using θ = ωt + 1/2αt²

where θ = number of revolutions of flywheel. Substituting the values of the variables from above, ω = 207 rev/min, α = 896.65 rev/min² and  t = 80.5/60 min = 1.342 min

θ = ωt + 1/2αt²

  = 207 × 1.342 + 1/2 × 896.65 × 1.342²

  = 277.725 + 807.417

  = 1085.14 revolutions ≅ 1085 revolutions
