  • 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.

A rectangular piece of​ cardboard, whose area is 352 square​ centimeters, is made into an open box by cutting a 2​-centimeter sq
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Dimension of cardboard is 22 m by 16 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Area = 352 cm²

Side of each square cutting from corner = 2 cm

Volume of box = 432 cm³

Let the two sides are x and y.

The area of the rectangular piece is

xy=352

y=\dfrac{352}{x} -------- (1)

The volume of the rectangular piece

2(x-4)(\dfrac{352}{x}-4)=432

x^2-38x+352=0

(x-16)(x-22)=0

x=16,22

Put the value of x in the equation (I)

For x = 16

y=\dfrac{352}{16}=22

For x = 22

y=\dfrac{352}{22}=16

Dimension of cardboard is 22 m by 16 m

g In a certain binary-star system, each star has the same mass which is 8.2 times of that of the Sun, and they revolve about the
Mademuasel [1]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Third Law of Kepler.

Kepler's third law tells us that the period is defined as

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 d^3}{2GM}

The given data are given with respect to known constants, for example the mass of the sun is

m_s = 1.989*10^{30}

The radius between the earth and the sun is given by

r = 149.6*10^9m

From the mentioned star it is known that this is 8.2 time mass of sun and it is 6.2 times the distance between earth and the sun

Therefore:

m = 8.2*1.989*10^{30}

d = 6.2*149.6*10^6

Substituting in Kepler's third law:

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 d^3}{2}

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2(6.2*149.6*10^9)^3}{2(6.674*10^{-11} )(8.2*1.989*10^30 )}

T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2(6.2*149.6*10^9)^3}{2(6.674*10^{-11} )(8.2*1.989*10^30)}}

T = 120290789.7s

T = 120290789.7s(\frac{1year}{31536000s})

T \approx 3.8143 years

Therefore the period of this star is 3.8years

Suppose that you and three classmates are discussing the design of a roller coaster. One says that each hill must be lower than
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

I would say that I agree with the one that said that each hill must be lower than the previous one and use the principle of conservation of energy to explain.

Explanation:

Roller coaster are usually designed such that its total energy remains conserved at any point on the track. Now,  the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. At certain height on the track, the total energy of the roller coaster is in form of potential energy, which gets converted to kinetic energy as soon as it starts sliding down the hill till get to the hill's endpoint where it has maximum kinetic energy. The cycle of sliding from a high point on the track to a low point on the track means there is potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and kinetic energy then converts back to potential energy and the cycle continues.

However, due to the effect of gravity and frictional force between the track and the coaster, the energy of the coaster is gradually reduces, so it becomes a bit difficult for the coaster to move to the next hill of the same height. It is for this reason that each hill must be lower than the previous one, so that the coaster can overcome the next hill's height with its reduced energy until it loses all its energy and comes to a stop.
