How can a wind turbine be used to make an electric circuit?

Physics
1 answer:
Radda [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Wind turbines operate on a simple principle. The energy in the wind turns two or three propeller-like blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected to the main shaft, which spins a generator to create electricity.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

I'm just going to tell you the information you need but not the answer so you can learn from the problem.

Explanation:

So he was at 248 km mark and traveled 99 km to get to the 149km mark. Then he turns around to go back 18 km to the 167 km mark. That is all the information you need to complete the question I recommend drawing it out in your notes.

You and a partner sit on the floor and stretch out a coiled spring to a length of 7.2 meters. You shake the coil so you
vekshin1

Answer:

Approximately 5.9\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (assuming that the partner is holding the other end of the coil stationary.)

Explanation:

In a standing wave, an antinode is a point that moves with maximal amplitude, while a node is a point that does not move at all. There is an antinode between every two adjacent nodes. Likewise, there is a node between every two adjacent antinodes.

The side of the spring that is being shaken moving with maximal amplitude. Hence, that point on this spring would also be an antinode. In contrast, the side of the spring that is held still (does not move at all) would be a node.

There would be a node between:

  • the antinode at the end of the spring that is being shaken, and
  • the antinode between the two ends of this spring.

Overall, the nodes and antinodes on this spring would be:

  • node at the end that is being held still,
  • antinode (as mentioned in the question),
  • node (inferred, not mentioned in the question), and
  • antinode at the end that is being shaken.

The distance between two adjacent nodes is equal to one-half (that is, (1/2)) the wavelength of the wave. The distance between a node and an adjacent antinode is one-quarter (that is, (1/4)) of the wavelength of the wave.

Thus, if the wavelength of the wave in this question is \lambda, the length of this spring would be:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, \lambda + \frac{1}{4}\, \lambda = \frac{3}{4}\, \lambda.

The question states that the length of this coiled spring is 7.2\; {\rm m}. In other words, (3/4) \, \lambda = 7.2\; {\rm m}. The wavelength of this wave would be (7.2\; {\rm m}) / (3/4) = 9.6\; {\rm m}.

The frequency f of this wave is the number of cycles in unit time:

\begin{aligned} f &= \frac{10}{16.3\; {\rm s}} \approx 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Hence, the speed v of this wave would be:

\begin{aligned} v &= \lambda\, f \\ &=9.6\; {\rm m} \times 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}} \\ &\approx 5.9\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

The intensity of sunlight falling on the earth is about 1.4 kw/m2 (before any gets absorbed by our atmosphere). at what rate doe
xxTIMURxx [149]
The area of the Earth (Ae) that is irradiated by is given by:

Ae = 4πRe^2, where Re = Distance from Sun to Earth
Substituting;
Ae = 4π*(1.5*10^8*1000)^2 = 2.827*10^23 m^2

On the Earth, insolation (We) = Psun/Ae

Therefore,
Psun (Rate at which sun emits energy) = We*Ae = 1.4*2.827*10^23 = 3.958*10^23 kW = 3.958*10^26 W

A 0.4-kg toy train car moving forward at 3 m/s collides with and sticks to a 0.8–kg toy car that is traveling in the opposite di
Gemiola [76]

Hey there!

Seems like you're looking for the size and direction to the final velocity of the two cars. To find it, you must solve it like this.

0.4 kg(3 m/s) + 0.8kg(–2 m/s) = 1.2 kg m/s -1.6 kg m/s = –0.4 kg m/s

–0.4 kg m/s = 1.2 kg(v) = (–0.4 kg m/s)/(1.2 kg) = v = –0.33 m/s


So, the cars are traveling at -0.33 m/s in the direction of the second car.


Hope this helps
