Answer:

It will take 0.72*10^8 hours

Explanation:

Potential energy formula is:

P_{E}=m*g*h

Where:

m=2.66*10^7 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2

h = 2000 m

P_{E}=2.66*10^7*9.8*2000=5.21*10^{11}

Potential energy of the water vapor is 5.21*10^11 Joule

When it converted to watt/hour  it becomes 1.45*10^8 Watt/hour.

When its divide by 2 because of 2 kW pump is going to be used. It will take 0.72*10^8 hours

Explain how the forces need to change so the aeroplane can land
Fofino [41]
When an airplane is flying straight and level at a constant speed, the lift it produces balances its weight, and the thrust it produces balances its drag. However, this balance of forces changes as the airplane rises and descends, as it speeds up and slows down, and as it turns.

I pull the throttle in my racing plane at a = 12.0 m/s2. I was originally flying at v = 100. m/s. Where am I when t = 2.0s, t =
Helen [10]
Summary:
a= 12.0 m/(s^2)
v= 100m/s
t1= 2.0s => s1=?
t2=5.0s => s2=?
t3=10.0s => s3=?
——————
Solution:
• when t1=2.0 s, I have gone:
S1= v*t1 + 1/2*a*(t1^2)
=100.0 *2 + 1/2*12.0*(2.0^2)
=224 (m)

• when t2=5.0s, I have gone
S2=v*t2+ 1/2*a*(t2^2)
= 100*5.0+ 1/2*12.0*(5.0^2)
=650 (m)

•when t3= 10.0s, I have gone:
S3=v*t3+ 1/2*a*(t3^2)
=100*10.0+ 1/2*12*(10.0^2)
=1600 (m)

Can light cause the rubber to become solid? Why or why not? Does it matter what type of light she shines on the rubber?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Yes, ultraviolet light can turn a rubber into solid due to prolong exposure.

Explanation:

A rubber is a material with an elastic property, causing it to be deform by an external force but takes its shape when the force is removed. Light is an electromagnetic wave which causes the sensation of vision. It transfers energy to a medium during propagation through the medium.

Generally, most light do not cause hardness of a rubber. But an ultraviolet light can cause rubber to become solid over a period of time. This is possible if there is a prolong exposure of the rubber, and because of the evaporation of volatiles in the polymer material. Ultraviolet light are known to cause a rubber to become solid.
