Answer:

The amount of water that will power a battery with that rating = 7.35 m³

Explanation:

The power rating for the battery is missing from the question.

Complete Question

Assuming 100% efficient energy conversion how much water stored behind a 50 centimeter high hydroelectric dam would be required to charged the battery with power rating, 12 V, 50 Ampere-minutes

Solution

Potential energy possessed by water at that height = mgH

m = mass of the water = ρV

ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³

V = volume of water = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

H = height of water = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Potential energy = ρVgH = 1000 × V × 9.8 × 0.5 = (4900V) J

Energy of the battery = qV

q = 50 A.h = 50 × 60 = 3,000 C

V = 12 V

qV = 3,000 × 12 = 36,000 J

Energy = 36,000 J

At a 100% conversion rate, the energy of the water totally powers the battery

(4900V) = (36,000)

4900V = 36,000

V = (36,000/4900)

V = 7.35 m³

Hope this Helps!!!

What have psychologists learned about perception from optical illusions ?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

That an optical illusion somehow interferes with the way we see things. Even simple illusions can completely fool us. If you search out the term, you'll see all kinds of them.

Most critically we see one thing and know another to be true. But knowing the truth doesn't help us. We still see and believe the truth of the illusion.
