Answer:

KE = $\frac{1}{2}$ m $v^{2}$

Explanation:

In the generation of energy from hydroelectric power station, the motion of water, and the turbines are paramount. The falling flowing water turns the blades of the turbine, which in-turn causes the movement of a coil within a strong magnetic field.

The motion of the coil which cuts the strong magnetic field induces current. Thus, the system generates electrical energy.

The equation that links kinetic energy (KE), mass (m) and speed (v) can be expressed as:

KE = $\frac{1}{2}$ m $v^{2}$

A capacitor consists of two concentric cylinders. The inner cylinder has a radius of 0.001 m and the outer cylinder a radius of

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The capacitance is 1.75 nF

Explanation:

From the question we are given that

The inner radius is $r_{in} = 0.001$

The outer radius is $r_{out} = 0.0011 \ m$

Length of the capacitor is $L = 1m$

The dielectric constant is $Di = 2 \ for \ 0 < \phi < \pi$

The dielectric constant is $Di_2 = 4 \ for \ \pi < \phi < 2\pi$

Generally the capacitance of a capacitor can be mathematically represented as

$C = \frac{\pi \epsilon_0 Di_1 L}{ln\frac{r_{out}}{r_{in}} } + \frac{\pi \epsilon_0 Di_2L}{ln\frac{r_{out}}{r_{in}} }$

$= \frac{\pi \epsilon_0 L (Di_1 + Di_2)}{ln\frac{r_{out}}{r_{in}} }$

$= \frac{(3.142)(8.85*10^{-12})(1)(2+4)}{ln\frac{0.0011}{0.001} }$

$=1.75*10^{-9} F$

$1.75nF$

In his explanation of the threshold frequency in the photoelectric field, Einstein reasoned that the absorbed photon must have t

Doss [256]

Answer:

4.6×10^-7 m or 0.46nm

Explanation:

From

Wo= hc/λ

Where:

Wo= work function of the metal

h= planks constant

c= speed of light

λ= wavelength

λ= hc/Wo

λ= 6.6×10^-34 × 3×10^8/4.30×10^-19

λ= 4.6×10^-7 m

You walk six blocks east along 12th Street, then three blocks west, then one block east, then six blocks east, then seven blocks

Oksana_A [137]

Displacement depends upon the path taken as it is a vector.

From your problem above we would have a total displacement of;
Defining +x direction as east and -x direction as west

6east-3west+1east+6east-7west

6-3+1+6-7=3 blocks east or + x-direction

So even though they walked a total of 17 blocks it ends up only being 3 blocks total in +xdirection that was travelled by displacement.

Any questions please ask.
