<span><span>Fuel Extraction and Production – Water is a critical resource for the drilling and mining of natural gas, coal, oil, and uranium. In many cases, fuel extraction also produces wastewater, as with natural gas and oil wells and coal slurry ponds.

Fuel Refining and Processing – Oil, uranium, and natural gas all require refining before they can be used as fuels – a process that uses substantial amounts of water.

Fuel Transportation – Water is used to transport coal through slurries — pipelines of finely ground coal mixed with water — and to test energy pipelines for leaks.[1]</span><span>Emissions Control – Many thermoelectric power plants emit sulfur, mercury, particulates, carbon dioxide, and other pollutants, and require pollution control technologies. These technologies also require significant amounts of water to operate.</span></span>
The vanishing of an ionic solid (like table salt) would be an example of acting like a solvent
Given Information:
Power = P = 100 Watts
Voltage = V = 220 Volts
Required Information:
a) Current = I = ?
b) Resistance = R = ?
Answer:
a) Current = I = 0.4545 A
b) Resistance = R = 484 Ω
Explanation:
According to the Ohm’s law, the power dissipated in the light bulb is given by
Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and P is the power dissipated in the light bulb.
Re-arranging the above equation for current I yields,
Therefore, 0.4545 A current is flowing through the light bulb.
According to the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the light bulb is given by
Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and R is the resistance of the light bulb.
Re-arranging the above equation for resistance R yields,
Therefore, the resistance of the bulb is 484 Ω
Answer:
0.00016 kg
Explanation:
Given:
Power = P = 1.2 × 10⁹ Watts
Power = work done / Time
efficiency = 0.30
Input power = 1.2 × 10⁹ / 0.30 = 4 × 10⁹ W
Energy = 4 × 10⁹ x 60 x 60 = 1.44 x 10¹³ joules
E = m c² , where c is the speed of light and m is the mass.
⇒ mass = m = E / c² = (1.44 x 10¹³) / (3 × 10⁸ )²
= 0.00016 kg
