Answer:
Average speed 62.5 miles an hour. If the train was traveling at a constant speed in a straight line it would be much faster on getting to its destination
Explanation:
Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine-generator at a site 70 m below the free surface of a large water reservoir that can supply water at a rate of 1500 kg/s steadily. If the mechanical power output of the turbine is 800 kW and the electric power generation is 750 kW, determine the turbine efficiency and the combined turbine–generator efficiency of this plant. Neglect losses in the pipes.
Answer:
[tex]\eta_{turbine} = 0.777 = 77.7\%[/tex]
[tex]\eta_{combined} = 0.728 = 72.8\%[/tex]
Explanation:
First we calculate the power input to the turbine. The input power will be equal to the potential energy of water per unit time:
Input Power = [tex]P_{in} = \frac{Work}{Time} = \frac{Potential\ Energy\ of\ Water}{t} \\P_{in} = \frac{(mass)(g)(height)}{Time} = (mass flow rate)(g)(height)\\\\P_{in} = (1500\ kg/s)(9.81\ m/s^2)(70\ m)\\P_{in} = 1.03\ x\ 10^6\ W = 1030\ KW[/tex]
Now, for turbine efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{turbine} = \frac{Mechanical\ Power\ Out}{P_{in}}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{800\ KW}{1030\ KW}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.777 = 77.7\%[/tex]
for generator efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{generator} = \frac{Power\ Generation}{Mechanical\ Power\ Out}\\\\ \eta_{generator} = \frac{750\ KW}{800\ KW}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.9375 = 93.75\%[/tex]
Now, for combined efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{combined} = \eta_{turbine}\ \eta_{generator}\\\\\eta_{combined} = (0.777)(0.937)\\\eta_{combined} = 0.728 = 72.8\%[/tex]

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of object = 49N
Force applied = 12N
Unknown:
Acceleration of object = ?
Solution:
The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;
Acceleration = [tex]\frac{12}{49}[/tex] = 0.25m/s²
A duck is floating in a pond. How does Archimedes' description of the buoyant force explain why the duck
doesn't sink?
PLEASE HURRY
Answer:
The upthrust or buoyant force helps the duck doesn't sink.
For example, there is a duck which weighs 3 pounds and tree pints of water also weigh three pounds. In this case the volume of the duck is more than the volume of three pints of water, so the duck floats.
Hope it helps!<3
Should the resistance of an ammeter low or high ?give reason
Answer:
The resistance of an ammeter should be low. This is because an ammeter is connected in series with the circuit for the measurement of electric current. In case, its resistance is high, then some amount of current may lost in heating it leading to the inaccurate reading. An ideal ammeter is one which has zero resistance.

pressure.
volume.
kelvins.

48.3 m/s
-68.4 m/s
84.7 m/s
-57.6 m/s
Answer:
a= g = - 9.81 m/s2.
The following equations will be helpful:
a = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 at2 vf2 = vo2 + 2ad
When you substitute the specific acceleration due to gravity (g), the equations are as follows:
g = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 gt2 vf2 = vo2 + 2gd
If the object is dropped from rest, the initial velocity ("vi") is zero. This further simplifies the equations to these:
g = vf /t d = 1/2 gt2 vf2 = 2gd
The sign convention that we will use for direction is this: "down" is the negative direction. If you are given a velocity such as -5.0 m/s, we will assume that the direction of the velocity vector is down. Also if you are told that an object falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s, you would substitute -5.0 m/s in your equations. The sign convention would also apply to the acceleration due to gravity as shown above. The direction of the acceleration vector is down (-9.81 m/s2) because the gravitational force causing the acceleration is directed downward.
hope this info helps you out!

How do I calculate how many meters are in 7.2 light years?
The exact question is:
Calculate in meters the distance between a galaxy and the Earth if the distance is equal to 7.2 light years.
Answer:
68.2 Quadrillion meters
Explanation:
A lightyear is the distance that light travels in one year.
Speed of light is [tex]3*10^8\ m/s[/tex]
So light covers 300,000,000 meters in one second.
One year has 31536000 seconds so , light covers
[tex]9.461*10^{15}\ meters\ in\ one\ year[/tex]
so 7.2 light years is
[tex]7.2*(9.461*10^{15})\\6.82*10^{16}[/tex]
so 7.2 light years is
6.82 x 10^(16) meters or
68.2 Quadrillion meters
