What is the source of geothermal power

Physics
1 answer:
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Geothermal energy is produced by the heat of Earth's molten interior. This energy is harnessed to generate electricity when water is injected deep underground and returns as steam (or hot water, which is later converted to steam) to drive a turbine on an electric power generator.

Explanation: Hope this helps!

Calculate the specific heat of a metal from the following data. A container made of the metal has a mass of 3.8 kg and contains
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

C = 771.35 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Here, e consider the conservation of energy equation. The conservation of energy principle states that:

Heat Given by Metal Piece = Heat Absorbed by Water + Heat Absorbed by Container

Since,

Heat Given or Absorbed by a material = m C ΔT

Therefore,

m₁CΔT₁ = m₂CΔT₂ + m₃C₃ΔT₃

where,

m₁ = Mass of Metal Piece = 2.3 kg

C = Specific Heat of Metal = ?

ΔT₁ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 165°C - 18°C = 147°C

m₂ = Mass of Metal Container = 3.8 kg

ΔT₂ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

m₃ = Mass of Water = 20 kg

C₃ = Specific Heat of Water = 4200 J/kg°C

ΔT₃ = Change in temperature of water = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

Therefore,

(2.3 kg)(C)(147°C) = (3.8 kg)(C)(3°C) + (20 kg)(4186 J/kg°C)(3°C)

C[(2.3 kg)(147°C) - (3.8 kg)(3°C)] = 252000 J

C = 252000 J/326.7 kg°C

<u>C = 771.35 J/kg°C</u>

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 70.1 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
lara [203]

Answer:

given,

mass of the skier = 70.1 Kg

angle with horizontal, θ = 8.6°

magnitude of the force,F = ?

a) Applying newton's second law

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} =0

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0

  F_{rope}= 102.73\ N

b) now, when acceleration, a = 0.135 m/s²

   F_{rope}-m g sin\theta = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0.135 m/s₂

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta+ma

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0+70.1\times 0.135

  F_{rope}= 112.19\ N
