Hydroelectric power plants convert the gravitational potential energy of falling water into electrical power, typically by allowing the water to flow through a pipe called a penstock to rotate a generator located below it. Let the bottom of the penstock be the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system and the point at which the gravitational potential energy is zero.

A1500 w electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120 v circuit that has a 20 a circuit breaker. you plug an electric hair dryer into the same outlet. the hair dryer has power settings of 600 w, 900 w , 1200 w, and 1500 w. you start with the hair dryer on the 600 w setting and increase the power setting until the circuit breaker trips. under what setting does the circuit breaker trip.

What is part of a line has one endpoint and continues in one direction?

Two positive charges are equal. which has more electric potential energy?
