A town is exploring the option of generating hydroelectric power from a stream. What is the maximum available power in a waterfa
tester [92]
The power is equal to energy transferred per unit time.
So, here power will be due to potential energy of the water kept at a certain height. And water is flowing down at the given flow rate.

The flow rate of water is 200kg/s
And the height given is : 15m

So, we calculate the potential energy as: mgh
Where m is the mass,
g is acc due to gravity = 9.8m/s
h is the height

So, potential energy = 200kg*9.8*15
= 29,400 J

Therefore, the maximum power generated is 29400 J/sec = 29400 Watts

Three forces act on an object. Two of the forces have the magnitudes 56 N and 27 N, and make angles 53° and 156°, respectively,
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two forces F_1 and F_2 at an angle of \theta _1  \theta _2

F_1=56\ N

F_2=27\ N

\theta _1=53^{\circ}

\theta _2=156^{\circ}

As resultant force is zero therefore horizontal component as well as vertical component of force is zero

\sum F_x=F_1\cos \theta _1+F_2\cos \theta _2+F_3\cos \theta _3

\sum F_x=56\cos 53+27\cos 156+F_3\cos \theta

F_3\cos \theta_3=-9.035\ N----1

\sum F_y=F_1\sin \theta _1+F_2\sin \theta _2+F_3\sin \theta _3

F_3\sin \theta _3=55.704\ N----2

squaring and adding 1 and 2

F_3^2(\cos ^2\theta _3+\sin^2\theta _3)=86.583+3102.93

F_3=56.47\ N

Divide 1 and 2 to get \theta _3

\frac{\sin \theta_3 }{\cos \theta_3 }=\frac{-55.704}{9.305}

\tan \theta_3=-6.16

\theta _3=180-80.78

\theta _3=99.22^{\circ}
