Electricity from the local power company costs 5.79 cents/kWh. How much would it cost to run a 120-W stereo system for 4.0 hours per day for 4.0 weeks?

A. $1.33

B. $0.78

C. $0.11

D. $2.18

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: B. $0.78.

Explanation:

Cost of Electricity

The rate of the cost of electricity is usually expressed in $/kWh or cents/kWh because the consumption of electricity is measured in Kilowatts-hour.

The local power company charges 5.79 cents/kWh.

We are required to calculate the cost to run a 120 W stereo system for 4 hours per day for 4 weeks.

The total consumption time is 4 hours/day * 7 days/week *4 weeks = 112 hours

The total energy consumed is 120 W * 112 h =13,440 Wh.

Converting to kWh: 13,440 Wh/1,000 = 13.440 kWh.

Finally, we multiply by the cost rate: 5.79 cents/kWh * 13.440 kWh = 77.8 cents/100 = $0.78.

Answer: B. $0.78.

Does an object with constant speed also have constant velocity?. Single choice.

Answers

Answer: No, constant speed does not mean constant velocity.

A classic often used example would be to consider a car driving in circles. If the speedometer reads say 20 mph the entire time, then the speed of the car is held constant (ie the same). But the velocity is changing because velocity measures direction along with speed. The car is changing direction as it moves in a circle.

A 15 kg box is sliding down an incline of 35 degrees. The incline has a coefficient of friction of 0.25. If the box starts at rest, how fast is it moving after it travels 3 meters?

Answers

The box has 3 forces acting on it:

• its own weight (magnitude w, pointing downward)

• the normal force of the incline on the box (mag. n, pointing upward perpendicular to the incline)

• friction (mag. f, opposing the box's slide down the incline and parallel to the incline)

Decompose each force into components acting parallel or perpendicular to the incline. (Consult the attached free body diagram.) The normal and friction forces are ready to be used, so that just leaves the weight. If we take the direction in which the box is sliding to be the positive parallel direction, then by Newton's second law, we have

• net parallel force:

F = -f + w sin(35°) = m a

• net perpendicular force:

F = n - w cos(35°) = 0

Solve the net perpendicular force equation for the normal force:

n = w cos(35°)

n = (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) cos(35°)

n ≈ 120 N

Solve for the mag. of friction:

f = µ n

f = 0.25 (120 N)

f ≈ 30 N

Solve the net parallel force equation for the acceleration:

-30 N + (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) sin(35°) = (15 kg) a

a ≈ (54.3157 N) / (15 kg)

a ≈ 3.6 m/s²

Now solve for the block's speed v given that it starts at rest, with v₀ = 0, and slides down the incline a distance of ∆x = 3 m:

v² - v₀² = 2 ax

v² = 2 (3.6 m/s²) (3 m)

v = √(21.7263 m²/s²)

v ≈ 4.7 m/s

Explanation:

A billiard ball moving at 5 m/s strikes another ball which is initially at rest. After the collision, the first ball moves at a velocity of 4.35 m/s at an angle of 30o below its original motion. Find the velocity and angle of the second ball after the collision. Assume that the collision is perfectly elastic.

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of the second ball is approximately 2.588 m/s

The angle direction of the second ball is 75° counterclockwise from the horizontal

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the first billiard ball = 5 m/s

The initial velocity of the billiard ball the first billiard ball strikes = 0 m/s

The final velocity of the first billiard ball = 4.35 m/s

The final direction of motion of the first billiard ball = 30° below its original motion

For perfectly elastic collision, whereby the target is at rest initially, by conservation of momentum, we have;

m₁ × [tex]\underset{v_1}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = m₁·[tex]\underset{v'_1}{\rightarrow}[/tex] + m₂·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex]

Which gives;

m₁ × 5·i = m₁·((√3)/2×5·i - 2.5·j) + m₂·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex]

∴ m₂·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = m₁ × 5·i - m₁·((√3)/2×5·i - 2.5·j)

m₂·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = m₁ × 5·(1 - √3/2)·i + m₁·2.5·j = m₁ × 2.5·(2 - √3)·i + m₁·2.5·j

Therefore, given that the mass of both billiard balls are equal, we have, m₁ = m₂, which gives;

m₂·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = m₁·[tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex]  = m₁ × 2.5·(2 - √3)·i + m₁·2.5·j

∴ [tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = 2.5·(2 - √3)·i + 2.5·j

The magnitude of the velocity of the second ball is [tex]\underset{v'_2}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = √((2.5·(2 - √3))² + 2.5²) ≈ 2.588 m/s

The direction of the second ball, θ = arctan(2.5/((2.5·(2 - √3))) = 75° counterclockwise from the horizontal.

A man speeding at 40m/s decides to outrun the cops and starts to accelerate at a rate of 2.5m/s² for 12 seconds. How far did he travel in this time?

Answers

Answer:

The distance traveled by the man during the acceleration is 1186.32 meters

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the man = 40 m/s

The added acceleration rate of the man to outrun = 2.5 m/s²

The time of acceleration = 12 seconds

The relevant kinematic equation of motion is given as follows;

s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

u = The initial velocity of the car the man is driving = 40 m/s

t = The time of travel during acceleration of the car the man is driving = 12 seconds

a = The acceleration by the man to outrun the cops = 2.5 m/s²

s = The distance traveled by the man during the acceleration

Substituting, gives;

s = 40 × 12 + 1/2 × 9.81 × 12² =  1186.32

The distance traveled by the man during the acceleration = s = 1186.32 m.

The rate of change of velocity is 9.81 m/[tex]s^2[/tex].

By using the equation of motion, the velocity of any object in free fall at any instant, [tex]v=u+gt[/tex]

Where u (constant) is the initial velocity,

[tex]g=9.81 m/s^2[/tex] is the acceleration due to gravity,

v= velocity at time t.

To get the rate of change of velocity, differentiating the velocity, v, with respect to time, as

[tex]\frac {dv}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(u+gt) \\\\=\frac{d}{dt}u +\frac{d}{dt}(gt) \\\\=0+g\\\\=g[/tex]

A heat lamp produces 32.8 watts of power at a wavelength of 6.5 mm. How many photons are emitted per second

Answers

Answer: 1.1x10^21 photons / sec

Explanation:energy per photon

.. E / photon = hc / L = (6.626x10^-34 J x sec) x (3.00x10^8 m/sec) / (6.5x10^-6m)

.. E / photon = 3.06x10^-20 J / photon

then

.. (32.7 watts) x (1 J/sec / 1watt) x (1 photon / 3.06x10^-20J) = 1.1x10^21 photons / sec

The number of photons are emitted per second will be "1.07".

According to the question,

Power,

P = 32.8 watts

           = 32.8 J/s

Wave length,

λ = 6.5 μm

          = [tex]6.5\times 10^{-6}[/tex]

As we know,

→ [tex]E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

      [tex]= \frac{32.8}{\frac{(4.42\times 10^{-34})(3\times 10^{-4})}{4.5\times 10^{-6}} }[/tex]

A pressure sensor inside of a mixing tank is designed to turn red when the pressure inside the tank exceeds 1.9 kPa. If the sensor is a square, 10 cm on each side, how great a force must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red?

Answers

Answer:

19 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Pressure (P) = 1.9 kPa

Length (L) = 10 cm

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall convert 1.9 KPa to N/m². This can be obtained as follow:

1 KPa = 1000 N/m²

Therefore,

1.9 KPa = 1.9 KPa × 1000 N/m² / 1 KPa

1.9 KPa = 1900 N/m²

Thus, 1.9 KPa is equivalent to 1900 N/m².

Next, we shall convert 10 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

10 cm = 10 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

10 cm = 0.1 m

Thus, 10 cm is equivalent to 0.1 m

Next, we shall determine the area of the square. This can be obtained as follow:

Length (L) = 0.1 m

Area of square (A) =?

A = L²

A = 0.1²

A = 0.01 m²

Thus, the area of the square is 0.01 m².

Finally, we shall determine the force that must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red. This can be obtained as follow:

Pressure (P) = 1900 N/m²

Area (A) = 0.01 m²

Force (F) =?

P = F/A

1900 = F / 0.01

Cross multiply

F = 1900 × 0.01

F = 19 N

Therefore, a force of 19 N must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red.

the speed of water at the tap of lower storey is more than that in the upper storey​

Answers

Answer:

Pressure of liquid in container is given by, P= height × density × acceleration of gravity.

At the lower storey, the height of the liquid from the open end is great, since height is directly proportional to pressure, the pressure exerted by liquid is maximum hence increase in velocity of flow.

Unlike the upper storey where the height of water is less hence the pressure exerted by the liquid is minimum which decreases the velocity / speed of liquid flow

The speed of water in the upper story will be lower than the lower storey because the kinetic energy of water in the upper storey will be less than that in lower storey.

What is kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy of an object is generated by virtue of the motion of the object. Whereas potential energy of the object is formed by virtue of the position of the object.

Kinetic energy depends on the mass of velocity of the object by the equation:

KE = 1/2 Mv²

Potential energy of a body p = Mgh

where, m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h be the height of the object from the surface.

Water at the tap of upper storey is at more height from the surface and thus, having greater potential energy than that in lower storey. Hence, the flow of water will be reduced since it possess more potential energy than kinetic energy.
