Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.
<em>mass (m)= 5 kg</em>
<em>height (h)= 9m </em>
<em>gravity (g)= 9.8 m/s^2</em>
It has Potential energy. (PE)
• PE = mgh
Replacing:
PE = 5 * 9.8 * 9 = 441 Joules
Answer: a. boiler - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.
b. combustion chamber - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.
c. condenser - III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.
d. control rod - I. part of a coal-fired power plant.
e. generator- III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.
f. turbine - III. part of a coal-fired power plant and part of a nuclear power plant.
Explanation:
a. Boiler: It is used in the coal power plant to heat the water used for producing electricity. The boiler keeps the temperature of water or steam at a desired level.
b. Combustion chamber: It is used for combustion of coal and using thermal energy for electricity generation.
c. Condenser; It is used in both nuclear and coal power plants. It condense and receive from the turbine.
d. Control rod: It is used in the nuclear power plant for controlling the nuclear fission and fusion reactions of heavy metals.
e. Generator: It converts the thermal energy into electrical energy.
f. Turbine: The turbine blades move with the effect of steam or any form of energy and the energy so produce is used for generating electricity in generator.
