In an amusement park water slide, people slide down an essentially frictionless tube. the top of the slide is 3.2 m above the bottom where they exit the slide, moving horizontally, 1.2 m above a swimming pool. does the mass of the person make any difference?

No

Explanation:

When the person slides down, the change in gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, according to

where

m is the mass of the person

g is the acceleration of gravity

v is the final speed

is the change in heigth of the person

Here we have assumed that the initial speed is zero.

Re-arranging the equation,

and we see that this quantity does not depend on the mass of the person, so every person will have the same speed at the bottom of the slide, equal to:

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it
