Geothermal energy can heat, cool, and generate electricity: Geothermal energy can be used in different ways depending on the resource and technology chosen—heating and cooling buildings through geothermal heat pumps, generating electricity through geothermal power plants, and heating structures through direct-use applications.

Tidal can be harnessed in three different ways; tidal streams, barrages, and lagoons.

Explanation:

Given

$m_1=2.2\times 10^{-8} kg$

$m_2=4.8\times 10^{-8} kg$

same charge on both masses

potential Energy due to Magnetic Field =Kinetic Energy of Particle

$qV=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}$

and we know

Force due to magnetic field will Provide centripetal Force

$qvB=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$B=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{2Vm}{q}}}{r}$

and B is equal for both particles

thus $\frac{m}{r^2}=constant$

$\frac{m_1}{r_1^2}=\frac{m_2}{r_2^2}$

$r_2^2=\frac{4.8}{2.2}\times 8^2$

$r_2=11.81 cm$

A 0.500-kg glider, attached to the end of an ideal spring with force constant undergoes shm with an amplitude of 0.040 m. comput

Nikitich [7]

There is a missing data in the text of the problem (found on internet):
"with force constant k=450N/m"

a) the maximum speed of the glider

The total mechanical energy of the mass-spring system is constant, and it is given by the sum of the potential and kinetic energy:
 $E=U+K= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
where
k is the spring constant
x is the displacement of the glider with respect to the spring equilibrium position
m is the glider mass
v is the speed of the glider at position x

When the glider crosses the equilibrium position, x=0 and the potential energy is zero, so the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy and the speed of the glider is maximum:
 $E=K_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$
Vice-versa, when the glider is at maximum displacement (x=A, where A is the amplitude of the motion), its speed is zero (v=0), therefore the kinetic energy is zero and the mechanical energy is just potential energy:
 $E=U_{max}= \frac{1}{2}k A^2$

Since the mechanical energy must be conserved, we can write
 $\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$
from which we find the maximum speed
 $v_{max}= \sqrt{ \frac{kA^2}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{(450 N/m)(0.040 m)^2}{0.500 kg} }= 1.2 m/s$

b) the speed of the glider when it is at x= -0.015m

We can still use the conservation of energy to solve this part.
The total mechanical energy is:
 $E=K_{max}= \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J$

At x=-0.015 m, there are both potential and kinetic energy. The potential energy is
 $U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(450 N/m)(-0.015 m)^2=0.05 J$
And since
 $E=U+K$
we find the kinetic energy when the glider is at this position:
 $K=E-U=0.36 J - 0.05 J = 0.31 J$
And then we can find the corresponding velocity:
 $K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.31 J}{0.500 kg} }=1.11 m/s$

c) the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the glider;

For a simple harmonic motion, the magnitude of the maximum acceleration is given by
$a_{max} = \omega^2 A$
where $\omega= \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }$ is the angular frequency, and A is the amplitude.
The angular frequency is:
$\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{450 N/m}{0.500 kg} }=30 rad/s$
and so the maximum acceleration is
$a_{max} = \omega^2 A = (30 rad/s)^2 (0.040 m) =36 m/s^2$

d) the acceleration of the glider at x= -0.015m

For a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is given by
 $a(t)=\omega^2 x(t)$
where x(t) is the position of the mass-spring system. If we substitute x(t)=-0.015 m, we find
 $a=(30 rad/s)^2 (-0.015 m)=-13.5 m/s^2$

e) the total mechanical energy of the glider at any point in its motion. 

we have already calculated it at point b), and it is given by
 $E=K_{max}= \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J$

What mechanism of energy is transferred by mass motion of fluid from one region of space to another?

lora16 [44]

Convection, because it is the process of heat transfer from one location to the next by the movement of fluids. The moving fluid carries energy within it.
