Identify solar, wind, nuclear, and tidal power as nonrenewable or renewable energy

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Renewable energy: Tidal, solar and wind

Non renewable energy: nuclear power

Explanation:

Renewable energy is any energy in which its source is always replenished or renewed.

While non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished or renewed immediately because of its limited availability of resources.

Most renewable energy sources are natural sources.

Solar, tidal and wind energy are renewable energy known as clean energy. While nuclear energy is a non renewable energy in which its source of energy is fuel ( uranium e.t.c)

1. An excited lithium atom emits a red light with wavelength a = 671nm. What is the corresponding photon energy? hc (6.63 x 10-3

Rudiy27

Answer:

E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation

E = h f

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

c = λ f

we substitute

E = h c /λ

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

λ = 671 nm = 671 10⁻⁹ m

let's calculate

E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ /671 10⁻⁹

E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

The time for a sound wave to travel between two people is 0.80 s,

sasho [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the below formula

Speed of sound = ( distance between observers) *2/(total time taken)

Now putt the given values ,

time taken = 0.80 sec

distance = 256 m

hence

V of sound= 256*2/0.80

V of sound = 640 m/sec

Energy from the Sun arrives at the top of the Earth’s atmosphere with an intensity of 1.30kW/m21.30⁢kW/m2. How long does it take

vivado [14]

Answer:

T=1.384×10⁶seconds

Explanation:

Given data

p (Intensity)=1.30 kw/m²

E (Energy)=1.8×10⁹ J

A (Area)=1.00 m²

T (Time required)=?

Solution

E=PT ................eq(i)

where E is energy

P is radiation power

T is time

Radiating Power is given as

P=pA

Where p is intensity

A is Area

Put P=pA in eq(i) we get

E=pAT

T=E/pA

$T=\frac{(1.8*10^{9}}{(1.30*10^{3} )*(1.00)} )\\T=1.38*10^{6} seconds$

An ocean thermal energy conversion system is being proposed for electric power generation. Such a system is based on the standar

defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Dear Student, this question is incomplete, and to attempt this question, we have attached the complete copy of the question in the image below. Please, Kindly refer to it when going through the solution to the question.

To objective is to find the:

(i) required heat exchanger area.

(ii) flow rate to be maintained in the evaporator.

Given that:

water temperature = 300 K

At a reasonable depth, the water is cold and its temperature = 280 K

The power output W = 2 MW

Efficiency $\zeta$ = 3%

where;

$\zeta = \dfrac{W_{out}}{Q_{supplied }}$

$Q_{supplied } = \dfrac{2}{0.03} \ MW$

$Q_{supplied } = 66.66 \ MW$

However, from the evaporator, the heat transfer Q can be determined by using the formula:

Q = UA(L MTD)

where;

$LMTD = \dfrac{\Delta T_1 - \Delta T_2}{In (\dfrac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2} )}$

Also;

$\Delta T_1 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 300 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 10 \ K$

$\Delta T_2 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 292 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 2\ K$

$LMTD = \dfrac{10 -2}{In (\dfrac{10}{2} )}$

$LMTD = \dfrac{8}{In (5)}$

LMTD = 4.97

Thus, the required heat exchanger area A is calculated by using the formula:

$Q_H = UA (LMTD)$

where;

U = overall heat coefficient given as 1200 W/m².K

$66.667 \times 10^6 = 1200 \times A \times 4.97 \\ \\ A= \dfrac{66.667 \times 10^6}{1200 \times 4.97} \\ \\ \mathbf{A = 11178.236 \ m^2}$

The mass flow rate:

$Q_{H} = mC_p(T_{in} -T_{out} ) \\ \\ 66.667 \times 10^6= m \times 4.18 (300 -292) \\ \\ m = \dfrac{ 66.667 \times 10^6}{4.18 \times 8} \\ \\ \mathbf{m = 1993630.383 \ kg/s}$
