Answer: Energy dissipation

Explanation: As water passes over a spillway and down the chute, potential energy converts into increasing kinetic energy. Failure to dissipate the water's energy can lead to scouring and erosion at the dam's toe (base). Hope this helps. Can u give me brainiliest

According to Ohm’s law, which combination of units is the same as the unit for resistance? volt ÷ ampere ampere × volt volt + am
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

volt ÷ ampere

Explanation:

The mathematical form of Ohms law is given by :

V = IR

Where V is voltage

I is current

R is resistance

R=\dfrac{V}{I}

The unit of voltage is volt and that of current is ampere

Unit of resistance :

R=\dfrac{\text{volt}}{\text{ampere}}

So, volt ÷ ampere is the same as the unit of resistance. Hence, the correct option is (a).

Answer:

Water breaking down into hydrogen and oxygen is a decomposition reaction

Hydrogen and oxygen combining to form water is a synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the breakdown of a chemical reactant entity into two or more simpler product fragments

Water H₂O undergoes a decomposition reaction by breaking down into hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, as follows;

2H₂O (l) → 2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

A synthesis reaction is a reaction that involves the chemical combination of two or more dissimilar molecules or atoms to produce a different compound or molecule

Water, H₂O, is formed by a synthesis reaction of hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, combining as follows;

2H₂ + O₂  → 2H₂O

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .
maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

F_g = F_c

\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}

\frac{GM}{r} = v^2

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}

v = 4564.42m/s

From the speed it is possible to use find the formula, so

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

T = \frac{2\pi (6.371*10^6)}{4564.42}

T = 8770.05s\approx 146min\approx 2.4hour

Therefore the orbital period of the spacecraft is 2 hours and 24 minutes.

PART B) To find the kinetic energy we simply apply the definition of kinetic energy on the ship, which is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)(4564.42)^2

KE = 1.0416*10^9J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the Spacecraft is 1.04 Gigajules.
