This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The picture shows a triangular prism. The end of prism are equilateral triangles with x meters. the other dimension of the prism is L meters

a) Find the volume V in terms of x and L

b) Water is entering the prism at a rate of A m³/hr. The prism is empty at time 0. Express the depth d of the water in meters in terms of A, the length of time t the water has been entering the trough, and the length L of the prism.  

Answer:

a) the volume V in terms of x and L is  ((√3/4)x²L) m³

b) required expression is (2/(3)^(1/u))√(At/L)

Explanation:

Given that;

form the question and image below;

triangular prism ends are equilateral triangle

side length = x meter

Dimension of the prism = L meter

Area of the equilateral triangle = √3/4 (side)² = √3/4 (x)² meter

Volume of the triangular prism = Area × height

= √3/4 (x)² × L

V = ((√3/4)x²L) m³

Therefore, the volume V in terms of x and L is  ((√3/4)x²L) m³

b)

Rate of water entering = A m³/hr

Depth of water tank = d meter

Time = t

Length of prism = L

now Rate of water entering is A m³/hr

dv/d = A                             [  V = ((√3/4)x²L) m³ ]

and

dv/dt = √3/4 [2x dx/dt ] L                   { L is constant }

so

A = √3/4 [2x dx/dt ] L  

∫A dt = √3/2 [ Lx dx ]                   { Integrate both sides}

At = √3/2 × Lx × x²/2

x² = uAt / √3L                              { we find square root of both sides}

x = √( uAt / √3L )

x = (2/(3)^(1/u))√(At/L)

Therefore; required expression is (2/(3)^(1/u))√(At/L)

The diagram below represents a flashlight that has been turned on. Which form of energy is being converted to electrical energy
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Chemical energy to electrical energy

Explanation:

In nature, there are several types of energy.

In this example (a flashlight being turned on), we have a conversion of energy from chemical energy to electrical energy. In fact:

- Chemical energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the molecules of the substances used inside the battery. When the chemical reaction inside the battery occurs, this energy is liberated, and it is used to "push" the electrons along the circuit connected to the battery

- Electric energy is the energy associated to the motion of the electrons along the circuit of the flashlight; it is the energy associated to an electric current.

Moreover, in the flashlight the electric energy is then converted into two more types of energy: light energy (since the bulb in the flashlight produces light) and heat energy (because the flashlight also produces heat, so thermal energy).
