Explanation:

Turbines might cause noise and aesthetic pollution.

Although wind power plants have relatively little impact on the environment compared to conventional power plants, concern exists over the noise produced by the turbine blades and visual impacts to the landscape.

The inflexibility, variability, and relative unpredictability of wind power as a means for electricity production, are the most obvious barriers to an easy integration and widespread application of wind power." Thus, the uncertainty of the wind requires a system that is always available to replace all the electrical output created by the wind turbine system. In other words, it is too expensive to have wind turbines lying around that don't do anything.

Urgent question!!!!...... 30 points to the person who helps me solve this question:

Nataly [62]

To find the acceleration of the car, we can use the equation acelleration=final velocity-initial velocity/elapsed time. Since we know the initial velocity is zero from the start, than we can calculate it as final velocity/elapsed time. If we divide 36 by 10, we get 3.6. Your acceleration is 3.6 km/h.

Hope this helps! :D

The electric potential at the dot in the figure is 3160 V. What is charge q?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for electric potential of a point charge:

$V = \frac{kQ}{r}$

V = Electric potential (V)
k = Coulomb's Constant(Nm²/C²)

Q = Charge (C)
r = distance (m)

We can begin by solving for the given electric potentials. Remember, charge must be accounted for. Electric potential is also a SCALAR quantity.

Upper right charge's potential:

$V = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(-5 * 10^{-9})}{0.04} = -1123.75 V$

Lower left charge's potential:

$V = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(5*10^{-9})}{0.02} = 2247.5 V$

Add the two, and subtract from the total EP at the point:

$3160 + 1123.75 - 2247.5 = 2036.25$

The remaining charge must have a potential of 2036.25 V, so:

$2036.25 = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(Q)}{\sqrt{0.02^2 + 0.04^2}}\\\\2036.25 = \frac{(8.99*10^9)Q}{0.0447} \\\\Q = 0.000000010127 = \boxed{10.13nC}$

A bird is flying in a room with a velocity field of . Calculate the temperature change that the bird feels after 9 seconds of fl

Korvikt [17]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The temperature change is $\frac{dT}{dt} = 1.016 ^oC/m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity field with which the bird is flying is $\vec V = (u, v, w)= 0.6x + 0.2t - 1.4 \ m/s$

The temperature of the room is $T(x, y, u) = 400 -0.4y -0.6z-0.2(5 - x)^2 \ ^o C$

The time considered is t = 10 \ seconds

The distance that the bird flew is x = 1 m

Given that the bird is inside the room then the temperature of the room is equal to the temperature of the bird

Generally the change in the bird temperature with time is mathematically represented as

$\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.4 \frac{dy}{dt} -0.6\frac{dz}{dt} -0.2[2 * (5-x)] [-\frac{dx}{dt} ]$

Here the negative sign in $\frac{dx}{dt}$ is because of the negative sign that is attached to x in the equation

$\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.4v_y -0.6v_z -0.2[2 * (5-x)][ -v_x]$

From the given equation of velocity field

$v_x = 0.6x$

$v_y = 0.2t$

$v_z = -1.4$

$\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.4[0.2t] -0.6[-1.4] -0.2[2 * (5-x)][ -[0.6x]]$

substituting the given values of x and t

$\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.4[0.2(10)] -0.6[-1.4] -0.2[2 * (5-1)][ -[0.61]]$

$\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.8 +0.84 + 0.976$

$\frac{dT}{dt} = 1.016 ^oC/m$

sweet [91]

(.140*25)+(75*0)= 3.5

3.5 = (.140 + 75)v

(3.5)/(.140 + 75) = v = .04657

which rounds up to .05 m/s
