Answer:
Kinetic energy can be used to develop electric energy which can be used as electricity.
Explanation:
The kinetic energy can be harnessed; much like some hydro power technologies harness water movement. A way to convert this kinetic energy into electric energy is through piezoelectric. By applying a mechanical stress to a piezoelectric crystal or material an electric current will be created and can be harvested.
Kinetic energy is also generated by the human body when it is in motion. Studies have also been done using kinetic energy and then converting it to other types of energy, which is then used to power everything from flashlights to radios and more.
Answer:
Yes this claim is correct.
Explanation:
The shear stress at any point is proportional to the velocity gradient at any that point. Since the fluid that is in contact with the pipe wall shall have zero velocity due to no flow boundary condition and if we move small distance away from the wall the velocity will have a non zero value thus a maximum gradient will exist at the surface of the pipe hence correspondingly the shear stresses will also be maximum.
Answer:
Method B is the more efficient way of heating the water.
Explanation:
Method B is more efficient because by placing a heating element in the water as in described in method B, the heat that is lost to the surroundings is minimized which implies that more heat is supplied directly to the water. Therefore, more heating is achieved with a lesser amount of electrical energy input. Whereas placing the pan on a range means more heat losses to the surrounding and as such it will take a longer time for the water to heat up and also take more electrical energy.
Answer:
Isolated system
Explanation:
By definition of a closed system it means that a system that does not interact with it's surroundings in any manner
The other options are explained as under:
Isothermal system : It is a system that does not allow it's temperature to change
Control Mass system : It is a system whose mass remains conserved which means the mass entering the system equals the mass leaving the system
Open system: It is a system that allows transfer of mass and energy across it's boundary without any opposition i.e freely.
Answer:
4A
Explanation:
From Ohms law ;
R= V/I where R is resistance, V is voltage and I is current
Given that;
R= 3Ω
V= 12
Using the values in the formula as;
R= V/I
3=12/I
I= 12/3
I= 4 A
