A power plant burns fuel to convert water to steam. During the process, 83% of the heat produced is transferred. Of the heat carried by the steam, 40% is converted to the mechanical energy of the spinning turbine. Which best describes the overall efficiency of the heat-to-work conversion in the plant

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]33.2\%[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

83% heat is transferred and out of this, only 40% is converted to the mechanical energy of spinning turbine.

The overall efficiency is the product of all the efficiency i.e.

[tex]\eta_t=0.83\times 0.4\\\eta_t=0.332\ \text{or}\ 33.2\%[/tex]

Motion is
displacement
a change of position in relation to another object
an object you look at to determine if something is moving
speed

Answers

Explanation:

When something is moving, we call it is in motion. It can be also defined as a change of position in relation to another object.

When an object is not moving at all, we call that it was at rest.

To be in motion, there must be a change in position.

Hence, the correct options are "a change of position in relation to another object" and "something is moving".

11. (a)What downward force is acting on you when you go down a waterslide? (b)What type of friction is
present? (c)If the waterslide were dry explain what type of friction in would be and (d)how that
changes your speed? (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

a) "gravitation" is the force causing you to go down a waterslide

b) It is "fluid friction" as a solid object (our body) moves over a fluid (the water)

c) It would become "sliding friction" since two solid surfaces slide over each other

d) fluid friction being the weakest friction, switching to sliding friction means a higher decrease in speed and therefore removing the water from a slide will decrease our speed

The force of ____________ exists between any two objects that have mass.

Answers

Answer:

gravity

Explanation:

How far will a brick starting from rest fall freely in 3 seconds

Answers

Answer:

When object falls freely we can say

its initial speed will be ZERO

and its acceleration due to gravity must be

a = g = 9.8 m/s^2a=g=9.8m/s2

Now we need to find the distance of free fall in 3 s of time

So here we will use kinematics

y = v* t + \frac{1}{2} at^2y=v∗t+21at2

now we will plug in all values in it

y = 0 + \frac{1}{2}* 9.8 * 3^2y=0+21∗9.8∗32

y = 44.1 my=44.1m

So it will fall by total distance of 44.1 m

Hurry I need answers quick I’m timed

Answers

Answer:

A). Increasing the positive charge of the positively charged object and increasing the negative charge of the negatively charged object.

Explanation:

The two objects possessing opposite or unlike charges attract one another due to the electromagnetic force between the electrons, as well as, protons in order to develop ionic lattices.

As per the question, the objects having unlike charges would attract one another more when we 'escalate the positive charge of the object having a positive charge and enhance the negative charge of the object possessing negative charge.' This will lead the atoms that are losing electrons to be positively(+ve) charged and the atoms gaining electrons to be negatively

(-ve) charged. Thus, the electromagnetic force among them increases and a stronger ionic network develops leading them to attract each other more. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

m
0.024 m/s2
0.081 m/s2
0.040 m/s2
0 0.19 m/s2

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration's equation is:

[tex]a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex] where v is the velocity of the object (moon II) and r is the radius. We have the radius, but we don't have the velocity, and we can't solve for acceleration until we do have it. Assuming moon II is a circle, or close enough to be called a circle, it has a circumference.

C = 2πr. If we can find the circumference of the circle, we can plug in the orbital period for the time, the circumference for the distance, and solve for velocity in d = rt. So let's do that and see what happens.

C = 2(3.14)(9.0 × 10⁷) and

C = d = 5.7 × 10⁸. Plugging in and solving for v:

[tex]5.7*10^8=v(3.0*10^5)[/tex] and

v = 1.9 × 10³. That is the velocity we can use in the centripetal acceleration equation.

[tex]a_c=\frac{(1.9*10^3)^2}{9.0*10^7}[/tex] and

[tex]a_c=.040\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

These are fun!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d=1.8\ g/cm^3[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 27 grams

Volume of the substance, V = 15 cm³

We need to find the density of the substance. We know that, the density of an object is given by mass per unit volume. So,

[tex]d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{27}{15}\\\\d=1.8\ g/cm^3[/tex]

So, the density of the substance is equal to [tex]1.8\ g/cm^3[/tex].

Drop distance [tex]d=0.150[/tex]

Generally the equation for Spring Constant is mathematically given by
