Answer:
As a type of thermal power station, a coal-fired power station converts chemical energy stored in coal successively into thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy. The coal is usually pulverized and then burned in a pulverized coal-fired boiler.Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity.
Answer:
P = 450 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a child, m = 18 kg
The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the slide is 2.5 metres.
The Gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg
We need to find the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the child sliding from the top to the bottom of the slide.
The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :
P = mgh
Substituting all the values,
P = 18 kg × 10 m/s² × 2.5 m
P = 450 J
Hence, the decrease in gravitational potential energy is 450 J.
Newtons 3.law: Action = Reaction
If a body exerts a force on a rope of 400 N the rope exerts a force on the body of 400N also. So the tension in the rope is 400N. See pictures below.
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.
Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.
As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is and the kinetic energy is . After the collision, the total momentum of the system is , but the kinetic energy is reduced to . So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.
Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).
Answer:
Temperature after ignition=7883.205 K
Explanation:
The number of moles is,
n=PV/RT
=(1.18x10^6)(47.9x10^-6)/8.314(325)
= 0.0209 moles
a) In this process volume is constant
Q=U
=nCv.dT
dT= Q/nCv
=1970/(1.5x8.314)(0.0209)
= 7558.205 K
The final temperature is,
= 7558.205+325
= 7883.205 K
