Answer:

292.31 m/s

Explanation:

If Distance (d) = 190m

Time (t) = 1.3s

Speed of sound in air (v) =?

then

2d=vt

v=2d/t

v= 2×190/1.3

v=292.31 m/s

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec

bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW

Three joules of work is needed to shift 10 C of charge from one place to another. The potential difference between the places is

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.

Explanation:

Given

Work done W = 3J

Amount of Charge q = 10C

To determine

We need to determine the potential difference V between the places.

The potential difference between the two points can be determined using the formula

Potential Difference (V) = Work Done (W) / Amount of Charge (q)

or

$\:V\:=\:\frac{W}{q}$

substituting W = 3 and q = 10 in the formula

$V=\frac{3}{10}$

$V=0.3$ V

Therefore, the potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

τ=0.060 N.m

Explanation:

By kinematics:

$\omega f = \omega o-\alpha*t$

Solving for α:

$\alpha=\frac{\omega o-\omega f}{t}$

where ωo = 600*2*π/60; ωf = 0; t=10s

$\alpha=6.283rad/s^2$

The sum of torque is:

$\tau=I*\alpha$

$\tau=M*R^2/2*\alpha$

$\tau=0.060 N.m$

Compare superconductors and semiconductors with conductors and insulators

NeX [460]

Well a superconductor is a metal that acts strangely when cooled down to a certain temperature and a semiconductor and on the flip side a semiconductor<span>, is a material that has a conductivity somewhere between that of a conductor and an insulator. that is pretty much what i know i hope this helps</span>
