Which transformation of energy occurs in a hydroelectric power plant? A. Potential to chemical energy B. Chemical to potential e
motikmotik

The correct answer to the question is D). Kinetic to electrical.

EXPLANATION:

Hydro electric power plants are the electricity generation plants which capture the energy of falling water to produce current.

The water present at the top of a dam has potential energy. When the water is allowed to fall from certain height, the potential energy of the water is converted into kinetic energy.

The falling water moving with high speed is allowed to fall on a turbine. The kinetic energy of the water will rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which will produce electricity due to the electromagnetic induction.

Hence, we see that the kinetic energy of the water is converted into electric energy.

Describe the sequence of mechanical energy events that lets you hear the
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Starting from the beginning.

There is a radio signal that is received by the radio.

The radio interprets the signal and produces a current in response to it.

That current goes to a membrane that oscillates producing sound, the oscillation of the membrane is the first mechanical energy event here.

These oscillations can travel in material mediums, for example, the air. Then there is a production of waves (soundwaves) that travel in the air (second event).

Those waves now hit the wall that separates you and your neighbor, as the wall is made of a material, the soundwaves can travel through it, but they will be dispersed (a part of the waves rebounds on the wall, and another part is dissipated as the wave travels through the wall), there is also a transmitted part of the wave, that is now in your house. (this change of medium will be the third event). Now only the lower frequencies survive, this is why the sound is "muffled".

Those remaining frequencies now travel in your house, and when they reach your ear, your ear sends a signal to your brain and your brain interprets them as sound. The wave interacting with your ear will be the fourth and last mechanical energy event.

You need to repair a gate on the farm. The gate weighs 100 kg and pivots as indicated. A small diagonal bar supports the gate an
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The force is  F = 3920 \ N

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

   From the question we are told that

          The weight of the gate is G  =  100\  kg

 

The vertical component of F is  F_y =  F\ sin  \theta

   From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have  

                W_g  * 2 - F_y  * 1 =  0

Where W_g  is the weight of the gate evaluated as

             W_g  =  m_g * g =  100 * 9.8 =  980 \ N

=>        980 * 2 - Fsin(30)  * 1 =  0

=>         F = \frac{1960}{sin(30)}

=>      F = 3920 \ N
