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!!!

belka [17]

Answer:

The statement that the net magnetic field at the center of this square is zero is false.

The net magnetic field inside a conductor must be zero - This is a true statement

Explanation:

The net magnetic field at the center of this square is not equal to  zero.

The net magnetic field at the center of this square is given by the equation below:

B = 2√2μ₀I/πₐ

Where a = the side of the loop, and I is the current.

Thus, the statement that the net magnetic field at the center of this square is zero is false.

The net magnetic field inside a conductor must be zero - This is a true statement because the total charge on the conductor must be equal to zero.
