A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is

rated at 90.0 (A.h) and each headlight requires 36.0 W of power, how long will it take the battery to completely discharge?

It will take the battery 15 hours to discharge completely.

<h3>Energy stored in a battery</h3>

Energy is defined as the ability or capacity to work. The formula for calculating the energy stored in a battery is expressed as;

Energy stored=Power×Time

Energy stored = ΔV  * t  

where

ΔV is the change in velocity

t is the time

Substitute

Energy stored = 12.0 * 90.0

Energy stored = 1080 W.h

Total power consumed by the headlight = 2 * 36

Total power consumed by the headlight = 72Watts

Determine the time it takes to dischage

Time = Energy Stored/Power

Time = 1080/72

Time = 15hrs

Hence it will take the battery 15 hours to discharge completely.

An egg is Free Falling Down from a nest in a tree (neglect air resistance)​
DedPeter [7]

We are to calculate the acceleration.

Answer:

-9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Since the egg is in a free fall, it means that the force due to gravity will be equal to the normal force.

Now,

Force due to gravity: F_g = mg

Normal force; F_n = ma

Thus;

mg = ma

m will cancel out to get

g = a

Since it is a free fall motion, then gravity is negative;

-g = a

g has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Thus;

a = -9.8 m/s²

17. A 120 m long train is moving in a direction with speed 20 m/s. A train B moving with 30
nydimaria [60]
Answer is D.

Speed:
Use relative speed to simplify the situation. Since the trains are moving in opposite directions, you can add the speeds and pretend the first train is stationary (moving at 0m/s) and the second train is moving at 50m/s.

Distance:
The front of the second train needs to travel 120m to get from the front to the back of the first train. When the front of the second train is at the back of the first train, the back of the second train is still 10m in front of the first train. The back therefore has to travel 130m to clear the first train. The total distance over which the trains are overlapping in this scenario is therefore 120 + 130 = 250m.

You have speed and you have distance so now just calculate time:

v = d / t
50 = 250 / t
t = 5s

Scientists plan to release a space probe that will enter the atmosphere of a gaseous planet. The temperature of the gaseous plan
ZanzabumX [31]
From my research, the image supports the question. From the graph given, we can construct the equation of the line using the two-point formula. Using the given value of 601 K, we can solve for the missing value of altitude.

y - y1 = [(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)](x- x1)
y - 147.52 = [ (567 - 147.54)/(78.11 - 18.4) ](x - 18.4)

Substituting y = 601 to solve for x:
601 - 147.52 = [ (567 - 147.54)/(78.11 - 18.4) ](x - 18.4<span>)
</span>x = 83

Therefore, the probe's instruments will fail at 83 kilometers.

Guys please help me out I’ll give extra points
zvonat [6]

Answer: h = 3.34 m

Explanation:

If the hat is thrown straight up, then at its highest point it has no motion and no kinetic energy. All energy is potential energy

PE = mgh

h = PE/mg = 4.92 / (0.150(9.81)) = 3.34352... ≈3.34 m
