Modern wind turbines generate electricity from wind power. The large, massive blades have a large moment of inertia and carry a

great amount of angular momentum when rotating. A wind turbine has a total of 3 blades. Each blade has a mass of m = 5500 kg distributed uniformly along its length and extends a distance r = 46 m from the center of rotation. The turbine rotates with a frequency of f = 11 rpm.
Required:
a. Calculate the total moment of inertia of the wind turbine about its axis, in units of kilogram meters squared.
b. Calculate the angular momentum of the wind turbine, in units of kilogram meters squared per second.

Answer:

Explanation:

moment of inertia of each blade which is similar to rod rotating about its one end

= 1/3 ml²

moment of inertia of 3 blades = ml²

= 5500 x 46²

I = 11638 x 10³ kg m²

angular velocity = 2πn where n is rotation per second

n = 11 / 60

angular velocity = 2π x 11/60

= 1.1513 rad /s

angular momentum

= moment of inertia x angular velocity

=  11638 x 10³ x 1.1513

= 13399 x 10³ kg m² per second.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a) h = 14 m

b) h = 88 cm

c) f = 0.054 Hz

d) f = 0.13 Hz

Explanation:

a) T = 2π√(L/g)

L = T²g/4π²

L = (45/6)²(9.8) / 4π² = 13.963...

b) ½mv² = mgh

h = v²/2g

h = 4.15²/ (2(9.8)) = 0.87869

c) f = 1/T = 1 / (2π√(14 / 1.62)) = 0.0542

d) f = 6/45 = 0.13333...

if the current in a wire is 2.0 amperes and the potential difference across the wire is 10 volts what is the resistance of the w
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

R = 2Ω

Explanation:

Potential difference (V) = current (I) * Resistance (R)

V = IR

I = 2.0A

V = 10v

R = ?

V = IR

R = V / I

R = 10 / 2

R = 2Ω

The resistance across the wire is 2Ω
