Answer: final Velocity v = 10.2m/s

Explanation:

Final speed v(t) is given as

v(t) = u + at .......1

Where; u = the initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time taken

The total distance travelled d is given as

d = ut + 1/2(at^2)

Given

d = 5.0m

u = 2.0m

a = g = 10m/s2 (acceleration due to gravity)

Substituting into the equation above we have

5 = 2t + 5t^2

5t^2 +2t -5 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula. We have;

t = 0.82s & t = -1.22s

t cannot be negative

t = 0.82s

From equation 1 above

v = 2.0m/s + 10(0.82)m/s

v = 10.2m/s

What is the current in a circuit with a 9.0 V battery and a resistance of 36.0 ohms
Vaselesa [24]
Ohm's law states that the voltage within an electrical circuit is equal to the product of the current and the voltage. Mathematically it is written as V=IR where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. If a circuit has a voltage of 9.0 Volts and a resistance of 36.0 Ohms, the current is I = V / R = 9.0/36.0 = 0.25 Amps.

A power plant generates 150 MW of electrical power. It uses a supply of 1000 MW from a geothermal source and rejects energy to t
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

- the power to the air is 850 MW

- mass flow rate of the air is 84577.11 kg/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Net power generated; W_{net = 150 MW

Heat input; Q_k = 1000 MW

Power to air = ?

For closed cycles

Power to air Q₀ = Heat input; Q_k - Net power generated; W_{net

we substitute

Power to air Q₀  = 1000 - 150

Q₀ = 850 MW

Therefore,  the power to the air is 850 MW

given that ΔT = 10 °C

mass flow rate of air required will be;

⇒ Q₀ / CpΔT

we know that specific heat of air at p=c ; Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg.K

we substitute

⇒ ( 850 × 10³ ) / [ 1.005 × 10 ]

⇒ ( 850 × 10³ ) / 10.05

⇒ 84577.11 kg/s

Therefore, mass flow rate of the air is 84577.11 kg/s
