Estimate humanity’s current consumption of energy in one day (in Joule).

Physics
1 answer:
Alex73 [517]2 years ago
6 0

Based on data from world energy consumption, the estimated humanity’s current consumption of energy in one day is above 208 million joules per day.

<h3>What is energy consumption?</h3>

Energy is the ability to do work. Therefore, energy consumption refers to the amount of energy used to do work.

Humans need energy for various purposes such as;

  • lighting
  • heating
  • operation of machines
  • feeding, etc.

Due to rapid growth on population as well as technology, the human energy consumption is on the increase.

In 2020, the world primary energy consumption was 71,4 GJ per person for a world population of about 7.7 billion people.

Therefore, the estimated humanity’s current consumption of energy in one day is above 208 million joules per day.

Hey JayDilla, I get 1/3.  Here's how:
Kinetic energy due to linear motion is:
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where
v=r \omega
giving
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2

The rotational part requires the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder
I_{cyl} =  \frac{1}{2}mr^2
Then the rotational kinetic energy is
E_{rot}= \frac{1}{2}I \omega ^2= \frac{1}{4}mr^2 \omega ^2
Adding the two types of energy and factoring out common terms gives
\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2(1+ \frac{1}{2})
Here the "1" in the parenthesis is due to linear motion and the "1/2" is due to the rotational part.  Since this gives a total of 3/2 altogether, and the rotational part is due to a third of this (1/2), I say it's 1/3.

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu
Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

P=I^2 R

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W

For the second bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W
