A power plant burns 1000 kg of coal each hour and produces 500 kW of power. Calculate the overall thermal efficiency if each kg
solniwko [45]

Answer:

The overall thermal efficiency is 30%.

Explanation:

Given;

Output power = 500 kWh

input energy  per kg of coal = 6 MJ = 6 x 10⁶ J = 1.66667 kWh

1000 kg of coal will produce 1000 x 1.66667 kWh = 1666.67 kWh

Thus, total input power = 1666.67 kWh

Overall thermal efficiency = Total output power/Total input Power

Overall thermal efficiency = (500/1666.67) *100

Overall thermal efficiency = 0.29999 *100

Overall thermal efficiency = 30%

Therefore, the overall thermal efficiency is 30%.

A person with normal vision can focus on objects as close as a few centimeters from the eye up to objects infinitely far away. T
NeTakaya

Answer:

a)   f₁ = 3.50 m ,  b)     f₂ = 0.84 m  

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the constructor equation

          1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p is the distance to the object and q is the distance to the image

a) the distance where the image should be placed is q = 3.50 m and the object is located at infinity p = ∞

           1 / f₁ = 1 /∞ + 1 / 3.50

           f₁ = 3.50 m

b) in this case the image is at q = -0.600 m and the object p = 0.350 m

           1 / f₂ = 1 / 0.350 -1 / 0.600

the negative sign, is because the image is in front of the object

           1 / f₂ = 1,1905

            f₂ = 1 / 1,1905

            f₂ = 0.84 m

A construction worker accidentally drops a brick from a high scaffold. a. What is the brick's velocity after 4.0 s? b. How far d
AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. 39.2 m/s

B. 78.4 m

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Time (t) = 4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

A. Determination of the brick's velocity.

Time (t) = 4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Velocity (v) =?

v = gt

v = 4 × 9.8

v = 39.2 m/s

Thus, the brick's velocity after 4 s is 39.2 m/s

B. Determination of how far the brick fall in 4 s.

Time (t) = 4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 4²

h = 4.9 × 16

h = 78.4 m

Thus, the brick fall 78.4 m during the time.

A body covers a semicircle of radius 7cm in 5s .find its linear speed
choli [55]

Ok so we are given the radius of 7cm and time of 5 seconds.

From the data we got we can calculate speed, frequency, perimeter and area of the semicircle.

Let's start with perimeter.

We know that perimeter of circle is 2\pi r so the perimeter of semicircle is \dfrac{2\pi r}{2} or simply \pi r

So the perimeter is equal to:

\pi r=\pi\cdot7\approx\boxed{22cm}

So this is the length of a curve or let's say the distance.

Now let's look at the linear speed s=\dfrac{d}{t} where d is distance and t time.

We know the distance and we know the time.

So let's calculate it.

s=\dfrac{d}{t}=\dfrac{22}{5}=\boxed{4.4\dfrac{cm}{s}}

Hope this helps.
