Which energy source is formed when organic matter is trapped underground without exposure to air or moisture?. . A. natural gas.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. coal

Explanation:

Coal is made of remains of organic material including trees and other vegetation which got trapped beneath the earth’s surface or at the bottom of the swamps. After burial below the ground the organic material was acted upon by the high temperature and pressure in the absence of air to form peat. Peat after further processing for a longer period of time converted into coal

550 J of work must be done to compress a gas to half its initial volume at constant temperature. How much work must be done to c
Over [174]

Answer:

The amount of work that must be done to compress the gas 11 times less than its initial pressure is 909.091 J

Explanation:

The given variables are

Work done = 550 J

Volume change = V₂ - V₁ = -0.5V₁

Thus the product of pressure and volume change = work done by gas, thus

P × -0.5V₁ = 500 J

Hence -PV₁ = 1000 J

also P₁/V₁ = P₂/V₂ but V₂ = 0.5V₁ Therefore  P₁/V₁ = P₂/0.5V₁ or P₁ = 2P₂

Also to compress the gas by a factor of 11 we have

P (V₂ - V₁) = P×(V₁/11 -V₁) = P(11V₁ - V₁)/11 = P×-10V₁/11 = -PV₁×10/11 = 1000 J ×10/11  = 909.091 J of work

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW

If the 20-mm-diameter rod is made of A-36 steel and the stiffness of the spring is k = 61 MN/m , determine the displacement of e
ryzh [129]

Answer:

σ = 1.09 mm

Explanation:

Step 1: Identify the given parameters

rod diameter = 20 mm

stiffness constant (k) = 55 MN/m = 55X10⁶N/m

applied force (f) = 60 KN = 60 X 10³N

young modulus (E) = 200 Gpa = 200 X 10⁹pa

Step 2: calculate length of the rod, L

K = \frac{A*E}{L}K=

σ = 0.00109 m

σ = 1.09 mm

Therefore, the displacement at the end of A is 1.09 mm

Find a numerical value for ρearth, the average density of the earth in kilograms per cubic meter. use 6378km for the radius of t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

5501 kg/m^3

Explanation:

The value of g at the Earth's surface is

g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=9.70 m/s^2

where G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

R=6378km = 6.378 \cdot 10^6 m is the Earth's radius

Solving the formula for M, we find the value of the Earth's mass:

M=\frac{gR^2}{G}=\frac{(9.81 m/s^2)(6.378\cdot 10^6 m)^2}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}}=5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg

The Earth's volume is (approximating the Earth to a perfect sphere)

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi (6.378\cdot 10^6 m)^3=1.087\cdot 10^{21} m^3

So, the average density of the Earth is

\rho = \frac{M}{V}=\frac{5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg}{1.087\cdot 10^{21} m^3}=5501 kg/m^3
