Answer:
- The specific mechanical energy of the air in the specific location is 40.5 J/kg.
- The power generation potential of the wind turbine at such place is of 2290 kW
- The actual electric power generation is 687 kW
Explanation:
- The mechanical energy of the air per unit mass is the specific kinetic energy of the air that is calculated using:
where V is the velocity of the air.
- The specific kinetic energy would be:
.
- The power generation of the wind turbine would be obtained from the product of the mechanical energy of the air times the mass flow that moves the turbine.
- To calculate mass flow it is required first to calculate the volumetric flow. To calculate the volumetric flow the next expression would be:
- Then the mass flow is obtain from the volumetric flow times the density of the air:
- Then, the Power generation potential is:
- The actual electric power generation is calculated using the definition of efficiency:
, where η is the efficiency,
is the energy actually produced and,
is the energy input. Then solving for the energy produced:
Answer:
They have a dual wave-particle nature.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (in fact, they are also classified as transverse waves).
Electromagnetic waves have a wave nature, however they also have particle nature - in fact, it has been proved in some experiment (e.g. photoelectric effect) that in some conditions they act as packets of particles - called photons. Therefore, the option
They have a dual wave-particle nature.
is correct.
Other options are wrong because:
They are all invisible. --> False because visible light (which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, so they are electromagnetic waves) is visible
They can only travel without a medium. --> False because they can also travel in a vacuum
They are slower than sound waves. --> False because they travel much faster (they travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, , while sound travels at 343 m/s in air, for instance)
