what energy is gotten from wind
Kinetic energy is gotten from wind which is converted into rotational energy.
How energy is produced from the wind?The wind is used to produce electricity using the kinetic energy created by air in motion wind turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power. This mechanical ability can be used for particular tasks (such as grinding grain or forcing water) or can be converted into electricity by a generator. into electricity. In present wind turbines, wind rotates the rotor blades, which change kinetic energy into rotational energy. Wind turbines labor on an easy principle: in lieu of using electricity to make wind like a fan wind turbines use the wind to make electricity. The wind turns the rotter-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which produced electricity.
So we can conclude that Wind rotates the rotor blades that convert kinetic energy into rotational energy.

Given:
Atm = 1.00 atm
Temperature = 0.00°C
Amount of gas = 1 mole which occupues 22.4 L
Let;s find the number of molecules of an ideal gas are in one cm^3 under these conditions.
We have:
1 mole of ideal gas = 22.4 L
This is called the molar volume of gas.
To find the amount of molecules, apply the avogrado's constant:
Number of molecules in 1 mol = 6.023 x 10²³
Hence, for 1 cm³, we have:
[tex]\text{ No. of molecules in 1 cm}^3=\frac{6.023\times10^{23}}{22.4\times10^3}[/tex]Solving further:
[tex]\text{ No. of molecules in 1 cm}^3=\frac{6.023\times10^{23}}{22.4\times10^3}=2.69\times10^{19}mol/cm^3[/tex]Therefore, the amount of molecules of an ideal gas in one cm^3 under these conditions is:

For an object spinning around a central point, what will happen if its distance from the center is decreased
Answer:
Its a acceleration will increase
Explanation:
The force required to keep an object in a circular motion is given by
[tex]F=\frac{mv^2}{R}[/tex]where v is the radial velocity and R is the radius of the object with mass m.
Now our question is what happens to the above equation as we decrease R?
We can see that as R decreases the quantity mv^2 /R increases (since R is getting smaller ).
Hence, we conclude that F increases. But what if F? it is the centripetal force.
Since centripetal force has increased, so has the quantity v^2 /R (called the acceleration ).
Meaning an increase in centripetal force implies an increase n acceleration.
Since in the answer choices we are not given the option to increase our centripetal force, the next best choice is to choose 'acceleration will increase. '

Answer:
1) 29.82 cm
2) 5.76 cm
3) 35.58 cm
Explanation:
Part 1)
The force of a spring is equal to:
F = kΔx
Where k is the constant of the spring and Δx is the elongation. Δx = xf - xi, where xf is the length of the spring when the force is applied and xi is the empty length. Then
F = k(xf - xi)
Now, by the action of a force of 51N, a spring measures 39 cm, so
51 = k(39 - xi)
And by the action of a force of 61N, the spring length is 40.8 cm, so
61 = k(40.8 - xi)
To find the empty length, we need to solve the system of equations
51 = k(39 - xi)
61 = k(40.8 - xi)
First, solve the first equation for k
[tex]k=\frac{51}{39-x_i}[/tex]Then, replace this on the second equation and solve for xi
[tex]\begin{gathered} 61=k(40.8-x_i) \\ 61=\frac{51}{(39-x_i)}(40.8-x_i) \\ 61(39-x_i)=51(40.8-x_i) \\ 61(39)-61(x_i)=51(40.8)-51(x_i) \\ 2379-61x_i=2080.8-51x_i \\ 2379-2080.8=61x_i-51x_i \\ 298.2=10x_i \\ \frac{298.2}{10}=x_i \\ 29.82=x_i \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the empty length of the spring is 29.82 cm
Part 2)
Now, we need to calculate the value of k, so replacing xi = 29.82, we get:
[tex]k=\frac{51}{39-29.82}=5.556[/tex]Therefore, the equation for the force is
F = 5.556Δx
Solving for Δx, we get:
Δx = F/5.556
Replacing the force by 32N, we can calculate the elongation as
Δx = 32/5.556 = 5.76 cm
Part 3)
Then, the length can be calculated by solving the following equation for xf
Δx = xf - xi
xf = Δx + xi
Replacing Δx = 5.76 cm and xi = 29.82 cm, we get:
xf = 5.76 cm + 29.82 cm
xf = 35.58 cm
So, its length is 35.58 cm
Therefore, the answers are
1) 29.82 cm
2) 5.76 cm
3) 35.58 cm
As a torque activity, your Physics TA sets up the arrangement decribed below. A uniform rod of mass mr = 158 g and length L = 100.0 cm is attached to the wall with a pin as shown. Cords are attached to the rod at the r1 = 10.0 cm and r2 = 90.0 cm mark, passed over pulleys, and masses of m1 = 281 g and m2 = 177 g are attached. Your TA asks you to determine the following: (a) The position r3 on the rod where you would suspend a mass m3 = 200 g in order to balance the rod and keep it horizontal if released from a horizontal position. In addition, for this case, what force (magnitude and direction) does the pin exert on the rod? Use standard angle notation to determine the direction of the force the pin exerts on the rod. Express the direction of the force the pin exerts on the rod as the angle F, measured with respect to the positive x-axis (counterclockwise is positive and clockwise is negative). r3 = Fp = F = (b) Let's now remove the mass m3 and determine the new mass m4 you would need to suspend from the rod at the position r4 = 20.0 cm in order to balance the rod and keep it horizontal if released from a horizontal position. In addition, for this case, what force (magnitude and direction) does the pin exert on the rod? Express the direction of the force the pin exerts on the rod as the angle F, measured with respect to the positive x-axis (counterclockwise is positive and clockwise is negative). m4 = Fp = F = (c) Let's now remove the mass m4 and determine the mass m5 you would suspend from the rod in order to have a situation such that the pin does not exert a force on the rod and the location r5 from which you would suspend this mass in order to balance the rod and keep it horizontal if released from a horizontal position. m5 = r5 =
a) Recall, the net torque on the rod must be zero. Thus,
Σt = 0
where
t represents torque
Thus,
t1 + t2 - tr - t3 = 0
t = rF
where
F = force
r = distance
r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr - r3F3 = 0
r3F3 = r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr
r3 = (r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr)/F3
Note,
F1 = T1 = m1g
F2 = T2 = m2g
F3 = T3 = m3g
Thus,
r3 = (r1m1g + r2m2g - rrmrg)/m3g
g cancels out
r3 = (r1m1 + r2m2 - rrmr)/m3
From the information given,
r1 = 10 cm = 10/100 = 0.1 m
r2 = 90 cm = 90/100 = 0.9 m
rr = 100/2 = 50 cm = 50/100 = 0.5 m
m1 = 281 g = 281/1000 = 0.281 kg
m2 = 177g = 0.177 kg
mr = 158g = 0.158 kg
m3 = 200g = 0.2kg
By substituting these values into the equation,
r3 = (0.1 x 0.281 + 0.9 x 0.177 - 0.5 x 0.158)/0.2
r3 = 0.542 m
The force exerted by the pin, Fp = mg
g = 9.8
Fp = (m3 - mr - m1 - m2)g
Fp = (0.2 + 0.158 - 0.281 - 0.177)9.8
Fp = - 0.981
Taking the absolute value,
IFpI = 0.981 N
F = - 90 degrees
b) r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr - r4F4 = 0
r4F4 = r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr = 0
F4 = (r1F1 + r2F2 - rrFr)/r4
Note,
F1 = T1 = m1g
F2 = T2 = m2g
F3 = T3 = m3g
F4 = T4 = m4g
Thus,
m4g = (r1m1g + r2m2g - rrmrg)/r4
m4g = (r1m1 + r2m2 - rrmr)/r4
r4 = 0.2
By substituting these values into the equation,
m4 = (0.1 x 0.281 + 0.9 x 0.177 - 0.5 x 0.158)/0.2
m4 = 0.542 kg
The force exerted by pin is
Fp = (m4 + mr - m1 - m2(g
Fp = (0.542 + 0.158 - 0.281 - 0.177)9.8
Fp = 2.37 N
Fp = 2.37 N
F = 90 degrees
c) When the pin does not exert a force,
Fp = 0
F1 + F2 - Fr = F5
m1 + m2 - mr = m5
m5 = 0.281 + 0.177 - 0.158
m5 = 0.3 kg
Since the net torque on the rod is zero,
t1 + t2 - tr - t5
t5 = t1 + t2 - tr - t5
t5 = t1 + t2 - tr - t5
r5 = r1F1 + r2F2 - ffFr)/F5
r5 = (r1m1 + r2m2 - rrmr)/m5
r5 = (0.1 x 0.281 + 0.9 x 0.177 - 0.5 x 0.158)/0.3
r5 = 0.36
What is the volume of a piece of iron ( = 7.9 g/cm3) that has a mass of 0.75 kg? (Enter your answer in cm3.) answer in: cm3
We will have the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{7.9g}{cm^3}\ast\frac{1kg}{1000g}=\frac{0.75kg}{V}\Rightarrow0.0079kg/cm^3=\frac{0.75kg}{V} \\ \\ \Rightarrow V=\frac{0.75kg}{0.0079kg/cm^3}\Rightarrow V=\frac{7500}{79}cm^3 \\ \\ \Rightarrow V\approx94.9cm^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the volume is 7500/79 cm^3, that is approximately 94.9 cm^3.
Three people are driving their cars in different directions, in an open field. At one point, while they are all driving, they each measure the other drivers’ velocities. When they compare measurements afterward, they notice that they all got different measurements from each other. Why do their measurements not match?
Answer:
because of their change in momentum
