Answer:

Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.

Explanation:

Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.

A mass weighting 16 lbs stretches a spring 3 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 20 lbs when the

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The equation for the object's displacement is $u(t)=0.583cos11.35t$

Explanation:

Given:

m = 16 lb

δ = 3 in

The stiffness is:

$k=\frac{m}{\delta } =\frac{16}{3} =5.33lb/in$

The angular speed is:

$w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{5.33*386.4}{16} } =11.35rad/s$

The damping force is:

$F_{D} =cu$

Where

FD = 20 lb

u = 4 ft/s = 48 in/s

Replacing:

$c=\frac{F_{D} }{u} =\frac{20}{48} =0.42lbs/in$

The critical damping is equal:

$c_{c} =\frac{2k}{w} =\frac{2*5.33}{11.35} =0.94lbs/in$

Like cc>c the system is undamped

The equilibrium expression is:

$u(t)=u(o)coswt+u'(o)sinwt\\u(o)=7=0.583\\u'(o)=0\\u(t)=0.583coswt\\u(t)=0.583cos11.35t$

A e limb of mass 12kg falls straight down. If air resistance exerts 27 N of froce on the limb as it falls, what is the net force

Gelneren [198K]

During the falling down, two forces are present: gravitational force and air resistance.

So, the net force = mg - f = 12*9.8 - 27 = 90.6 N, the positive sign indicates the direction is pointing towards the center of the earth, which is the same as gravitational force
