This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e

Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

$P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p$

where $\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$ is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and $C_p = 0.45$ is the efficiency

$10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45$

$10000 = 190A$

$A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2$

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

$\pi r^2 = A = 52.7$

$r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79$

$r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m$

A pump is used to transport water to a higher reservoir. if the water temperature is 15ºc, determine the lowest pressure that ca

Reika [66]

Normally, the water pressure inside a pump is higher than the vapor pressure: in this case, at the interface between the liquid and the vapor, molecules from the liquid escapes into vapour form. Instead, when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure, molecules of vapour can go inside the water forming bubbles: this phenomenon is called cavitation.

So, cavitation occurs when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure. In our problem, vapour pressure at $15^{\circ}$ is 1.706 kPa. Therefore, the lowest pressure that can exist in the pump without cavitation, at this temperature, is exactly this value: 1.706 kPa.

What should you do if someone on foot approaches your car while you are in it?

tatyana61 [14]

It depends. If you are driving and the person doesn't look like a serial killer, you should stop.
