Answer:    hydroelectric dams

Explanation: Enormous energy is stored in water held back by hydroelectric dams. The energy is transformed into (a form of kinetic energy) as it falls across the dam. The falling water strikes the blades of a turbine and makes them spin, and the then turns the shaft of a generator.

The answer is hydroelectric dams because Enormous energy is stored in water held back by hydroelectric dams. The energy is transformed into (a form of kinetic energy) as it falls across the dam.

A solid cylinder with a mass of 2.72 kg and a radius of 0.083 m starts from rest at a height of 4.20 m and rolls down a 88.7 ◦ s
Bingel [31]

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy ,    

             Potential energy = kinetic energy

   mgh = \frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \times I \times \omega^{2}

                  I = \frac{mr^{2}}{2}

          \omega = \frac{v}{r}

     mgh = [\frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2}] + [\frac{1}{2} \times (\frac{mr^{2}}{2}) \frac{v^{2}}{r^{2}}]

     mgh = [\frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2}] + [\frac{1}{4} \times mv^{2}]

             g \times h = \frac{3}{4} \times v^{2}

             9.8 \times 4.2 = \frac{3}{4} \times v^{2}

                  v = 7.4 m/s

thus, we can conclude that the translational speed of the cylinder when it leaves the incline is 7.4 m/s.

Igoryamba

A particle moves along a straight line with equation of motion s = f(t), where s is measured in meters and t in seconds. Find the velocity and the speed when t = 4. f(t) = 12t² + 35 t + 1

Answer:

Velocity = 131 m/s

Speed = 131 m/s

Explanation:

Equation of motion, s = f(t) = 12t² + 35 t + 1

To get velocity of the particle, let us find the first derivative of s

v (t) = ds/dt = 24t + 35

At t = 4

v(4) = 24(4) + 35

v(4) = 131 m/s

Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Since the velocity is already positive, speed is also 131 m/s
