Which type of waves give scientists information about the structure of Earth's interior layers?

An energy plant produces an output potential of 1500 kV and serves a city 143 km away. A high-voltage transmission line carries

jekas [21]

Answer:

2123.55 $/hr

Explanation:

Given parameters are:

$V_{plant} = 1500$ KV

L = 143 km

I = 500 A

$\rho = 2.4$ $\Omega / km$

So, we will find the voltage potential provided for the city as:

$V_{wire} =IR = I\rho L = 1500*2.4*143 = 514.8$ kV

$V_{city} = V_{plant}- V_{wire} = 1500-514.8 = 985.2$ kV

Then, we will find dissipated power because of the resistive loss on the transmission line as:

$P = I^2R = I^2\rho L=500^2*2.4*143 = 8.58*10^7$ W

Since the charge of plant is not given for electric energy, let's assume it randomly as $x = \frac{\dollar 0.081}{kW.hr}$

Then, we will find the price of energy transmitted to the city as:

$Cost = P * x = 8.58*10^7 * 0.081 * 0.001 = 6949.8$ $/hr

To calculate money per hour saved by increasing the electric potential of the power plant:

Finally,

$I_{new} = P/V_{new} = I/1.2\\P_{new} = I_{new}^2R_{wire}\\Cost = P_{new}/1.44=6949.8/1.44 = 4826.25$ $/hr

The amount of money saved per hour = $6949.8 - 6949.8/1.44 = 2123.55$ $/hr

Note: For different value of the price of energy, it just can be substituted in the equations above, and proper result can be found accordingly.

How do you get a tachyionic particle and how are they faster than light

melomori [17]

<span>Tachyons are studied in an area called particle physics, and I must say this is a bit out of my league, but I'll give you some general thoughts. Tachyons are hypothetical particles resulting from what physicists call a thought experiment. Back in the 1960s, some physicists wondered what would happen if matter could travel faster than the speed of light, something that is supposed to be impossible according to the Theory of Relativity. So these particles may or may not exist because they have not been proven or disproven by real experiment as of yet. What people have done is apply existing formulas to the unique properties of tachyons (like imaginary mass!). What comes out is a particles that go faster when they lose energy with a MINIMUM velocity of the speed of light and a maximum velocity of infinity! Hope that helps Ben, theoretical physics is a weird place and is not too far off from philosophy.</span>

A string along which waves can travel is 4.36 m long and has a mass of 222 g. The tension in the string is 60.0 N. What must be

lora16 [44]

Answer:

frequency is 195.467 Hz

Explanation:

given data

length L = 4.36 m

mass m = 222 g = 0.222 kg

tension T = 60 N

amplitude A = 6.43 mm = 6.43 × $10^{-3}$ m

power P = 54 W

to find out

frequency f

solution

first we find here density of string that is

density ( μ )= m/L ................1

μ = 0.222 / 4.36

density μ is 0.050 kg/m

and speed of travelling wave

speed v = √(T/μ) ...............2

speed v = √(60/0.050)

speed v = 34.64 m/s

and we find wavelength by power that is

power = μ×A²×ω²×v / 2 ....................3

here ω is wavelength put value

54 = ( 0.050 ×(6.43 × $10^{-3}$ )²×ω²× 34.64 ) / 2

0.050 ×(6.43 × $10^{-3}$ )²×ω²× 34.64 = 108

ω² = 108 / 7.160 × $10^{-5}$

ω = 1228.16 rad/s

so frequency will be

frequency = ω / 2π

frequency = 1228.16 / 2π

frequency is 195.467 Hz

Four point charges are individually brought from infinity and placed at the corners of a square. Each charge has the identical v

Brut [27]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of voltage given by Coulomb's laws. From there we will define the charges and the distance, and we will obtain the total value of the potential difference in the system.

The length of diagonal is given as

$l = 2a$
