Answer:

People can capture geothermal energy through: Geothermal power plants, which use heat from deep inside the Earth to generate steam to make electricity. Geothermal heat pumps, which tap into heat close to the Earth's surface to heat water or provide heat for buildings

When the weather is cold, the water or refrigerant heats up as it travels through the part of the loop that's buried underground. Once it gets back above ground, the warmed water or refrigerant transfers heat into the building. The water or refrigerant cools down after its heat is transferred.

a child hits a ball with a force of 350 N. (a) If the ball and bat are in contact for 0.12 is, what impulse does the ball receiv
Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Given that,

Force with which a child hits a ball is 350 N

Time of contact is 0.12 s

We need to find the impulse received by the ball. The impulse delivered is given by :

J=F\times t\\\\J=350\times 0.12\\\\J=42\ N-m

So, the impulse is 42 N-m..

We know that he change in momentum is also equal to the impulse delivered.

So, impulse = 42 N-m and change in momentum =42 N-m.

Tammy leaves the office, drives 26 km due
fredd [130]

Answer:

72.98 km

Explanation:

Her displacement is simply the distance from her final position to her initial position.

Now, I've drawn and attached a triangle diagram to depict this her movement.

Point O is her initial starting point.

Point A is the first point she gets to after travelling north while point B is the final point after travelling north east.

From the triangle, the displacement will be the distance OB which is denoted by x and can be solved from cosine rule.

Thus;

x² = 62² + 26² - 2(62 × 26)cos 120

x² = 4520 + 806

x² = 5326

x = √5326

x = 72.98 km

Floor lamps usually have a base with large inertia, while the long body and top have much less inertia. Part A If you want to sh
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia  and this mathematically given as

          I = mr^2

   Where m is the mass

                r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp
Arisa [49]

Incomplete question.The complete question is here

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp and rotates at a rate of 3000 rpm.

Answer:

Torque=0.51 Btu

Explanation:

Given Data

Power=225 hp

Revolutions =3000 rpm

To find

T( torque )=?

Solution

As

T(Torque)=\frac{W(Work)}{2\pi n(Revolutions) }

As force moves an object through a distance, work is done on the object. Likewise, when a torque rotates an object through an angle, work is done.

So

T=\frac{225*42.207}{2\pi 3000}\\ T=0.51 Btu

You set a tuning fork into vibration at a frequency of 723 Hz and then drop it off the roof of the Physics building where the ac
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Original Frequency f=723\ Hz

apparent Frequency f'=697\ Hz

There is change in frequency whenever source move relative to the observer.

From Doppler effect we can write as

f'=f\cdot \frac{v-v_o}{v+v_s}

where  

f'=apparent frequency  

v=velocity of sound in the given media

v_s=velocity of source

v_0=velocity of observer  

here v_0=0

697=723\cdot (\frac{343-0}{343+v_s})

v_s=(\frac{f}{f'}-1)v

v_s=(\frac{723}{697}-1)\cdot 343

v_s=12.79\approx 12.8\ m/s

i.e.fork acquired a velocity of 12.8 m/s

distance traveled by fork is given by

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

v_s^2-0=2\times 9.8\times s

s=\frac{12.8^2}{2\times 9.8}

s=8.35\ m
