Why is there more potential for wind energy in the upper himalayan in nepal?​

Physics
1 answer:
exis [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<em><u>The potential area of wind power in the country is about 6074 sq. km with wind power density greater than 300 watt/m2. More than 3,000 MW of electricity could be generated at 5 MW per sq km. The commercially viable wind potential of the country is estimated to be only about 448 MW.</u></em>

A reasonable estimate of the moment of inertia of an ice skater spinning with her arms at her sides can be made by modeling most
Oxana [17]

Answer:

A)  I_{total} = 1.44 kg m², B) moment of inertia must increase

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is defined by

     I = ∫ r² dm

For figures with symmetry it is tabulated, in the case of a cylinder the moment of inertia with respect to a vertical axis is

      I = ½ m R²

A very useful theorem is the parallel axis theorem that states that the moment of inertia with respect to another axis parallel to the center of mass is

    I = I_{cm} + m D²

Let's apply these equations to our case

The moment of inertia is a scalar quantity, so we can add the moment of inertia of the body and both arms

      I_{total}=I_{body} + 2 I_{arm}

       I_{body} = ½ M R²

The total mass is 64 kg, 1/8 corresponds to the arms and the rest to the body

       M = 7/8 m total

       M = 7/8 64

       M = 56 kg

The mass of the arms is

      m’= 1/8 m total

      m’= 1/8 64

      m’= 8 kg

As it has two arms the mass of each arm is half

     m = ½ m ’

     m = 4 kg

The arms are very thin, we will approximate them as a particle

    I_{arm} = M D²

Let's write the equation

     I_{total} = ½ M R² + 2 (m D²)

Let's calculate

    I_{total} = ½ 56 0.20² + 2 4 0.20²

    I_{total} = 1.12 + 0.32

    I_{total} = 1.44 kg m²

b) if you separate the arms from the body, the distance D increases quadratically, so the moment of inertia must increase

The velocity as a function of time of a moving particle is given by v = α+ βt2 , where α and β are constants and t is time in s.
marin [14]

The acceleration of the particle at 3s is [tex]a = 6 \beta [/tex]

v  =  \alpha  +  \beta {t}^{2}

<h3>How to calculate acceleration </h3>

a =  \frac{dv}{dt} \\ v =  \alpha  +  \beta  {t}^{2} \\ \frac{dv}{dt}  = 0 + 2 \beta t \\

if Time is given as 3s

therefore, Acceleration is

a = 2 \beta t \\ a = 2 \beta 3 \\ a = 2 \times  \beta  \times 3 \\ a = 6 \beta

Acceleration is

a = 6 \beta

Discuss the pros and cons of fission and fusion reactions.
Jet001 [13]

<u>Fission</u>: -

<u>Pros</u>:

- "It does not contribute to the air pollutants in the environment."

- "It does not need costly energy fuels."

- "It is capable of providing energy for 2 to 3 years."

- "It does not make global warming worse."

- "It produces a nuclear reaction that is important."

- "It helps with the field of astronomy."

<u>Cons</u>:

- "It can harm the environment in a way that it disposes waste."

- "It poses a risk to public health."

- "It can cause deadly and costly accidents."

- "It has the potential to open the door for terrorists to create powerful weapons."

<u>Fusion Reactions</u>: -

<u>Pros</u>:

- "Clean energy ."

- "Virtually limitless fuel available ."

- "No chain reaction. Easier to control or stop than fission ."

- "Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei) ."

- "Little or no nuclear waste. Core remains radioactive for only 100 years. Possibly radioactive structural elements ."

- "Very low fuel cost."

<u>Cons</u>:

- "Unproven (it will take another years of research to explore it on commercial scale) ."

- "Commercial power plants will be very expensive to build ."

- "Requires extremely high temperatures .

If cold fusion could be achieved, it would be much easier to implement."

Just as a skydiver steps out of the helicopter with no forward velocity someone who’s watching start stopwatch so the time is ze
Kobotan [32]

Answer: zero.


Justification:


The downward velocity of the sky diver just before starting to fall is zero, assuming that the helicopter is not moving but just hovering.


Before starting to fall, the velocity of the skydiver is the same of the helicopter, which is zero. It is only, once she jumps out of the helicopter that her weight is not supported by the helicopter and so the gravitational force of the Earth attracts the skydiver and she starts to gain velocity at a rate equal to g (around 9.81 m/s²).
