How long would it take a plane to fly 1,054 km with an average speed of 886 km/h?

dam is used to block the passage of a river and to generate electricity. Approximately 58.4 x 103 kg of water falls each second

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

8.049 MW

Explanation:

The expression for gravitational potential energy is given as

Ep = mgh............. Equation 1

Ep = gravitational potential energy, m = mass of water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 58.4×10³ kg, h = 20.1 m, g = 9.81 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

Ep = 58.4×10³(20.1)(9.81)

Ep = 1.6098×10⁷ J.

If one half the gravitational potential energy of the water were converted to electrical energy

Electrical energy = Ep/2

Electrical energy = (1.6098×10⁷)/2

Electrical energy = 8.049×10⁶ J

In one seconds,

The power generated = 8.049×10⁶ W

Power generated = 8.049 MW

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 121.6 nanome

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

b) The star is moving away from us.

Explanation:

If an object moves toward us, the light waves it emits are compressed - the wavelength of the light will be shorter, making the light bluer. On the other hand, if an object moves away from us, the light waves are stretched, making it redder. If from laboratory measurements we know that a specific hydrogen spectral line appears at the wavelength of 121.6 nanometers (nm) and the spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at the wavelength of 121.8 nm, we can conclude that the star is moving away from npos, since the wavelength related to that star is more expanded.

Assume that the electric field E is equal to zero at a given point. Does it mean that the electric potential V must also be equa

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

No, this doesn't mean the electric potential equals zero.

Explanation:

In electrostatics, the electric field $\vec{E}$ is related to the gradient of the electric potential V with :

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r})$

This means that for constant electric potential the electric field must be zero:

$V(\vec{r}) = k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial}{\partial z}) k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial k}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial k}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial k}{\partial z})$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (0,0,0)$

This is not the only case in which we would find an zero electric field, as, any scalar field with gradient zero will give an zero electric field. For example:

$V(\vec{r})= (x+2)^2 (y+4)^3 (z+5)^4$

give an electric field of zero at point (0,0,0)

The scale is 1:30 and their are 10 boulders. How many boulders are their in the real pond

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the correct answer is C

Explanation:

When we express that the scale is 1:30 we mean that the objects of the realization are reduced by a factor of 30 in the graph, for example a distance of 30 cm in the graph is represented by a distance of 1 cm.

Therefore something that in the graph has n value to bring it to real size must be multiplied by the scale.

Applying this to our case if there is

10 boulder on the chart

in reality there are #_boulder = 10 30

#_boulder = 300 boulder

so the correct answer is C
