Nuclear power plants, wind farms, water farms, and geothermal heating
Answer:

Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.
- m= 150 kg
- g= 9.8 m/s²
- h= 20 m
Substitute the values into the formula.

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.


Convert the units.
1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

The crate has <u>29,400 Joules</u> of potential energy.
Using the density equation and clearing mass:
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.
Answer:
P₁ = 2.3506 10⁵ Pa
Explanation:
For this exercise we use Bernoulli's equation and continuity, where point 1 is in the hose and point 2 in the nozzle
P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂
A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂
Let's look for the areas
r₁ = d₁ / 2 = 2.25 / 2 = 1,125 cm
r₂ = d₂ / 2 = 0.2 / 2 = 0.100 cm
A₁ = π r₁²
A₁ = π 1.125²
A₁ = 3,976 cm²
A₂ = π r₂²
A₂ = π 0.1²
A₂ = 0.0452 cm²
Now with the continuity equation we can look for the speed of water inside the hose
v₁ = v₂ A₂ / A₁
v₁ = 11.2 0.0452 / 3.976
v₁ = 0.1273 m / s
Now we can use Bernoulli's equation, pa pressure at the nozzle is the air pressure (P₂ = Patm) the hose must be on the floor so the height is zero (y₁ = 0)
P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² = Patm + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂
P₁ = Patm + ½ ρ (v₂² - v₁²) + ρ g y₂
Let's calculate
P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + ½ 1000 (11.2² - 0.1273²) + 1000 9.8 7.25
P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + 6.271 10⁴ + 7.105 10⁴
P₁ = 2.3506 10⁵ Pa
