86.4×10^6 joule is energy does one house use during each 24 hr day.

20 MJ of light energy

Consumption of electricity is 1 kW.

The energy consumption lasts for 24 hours.

energy=power×time

energy=10^3×24×3600

energy=86.4×10^6 joule

Energy in physics is the ability to perform work. Different shapes, such as potential, kinetic, thermal, electrical, chemical, radioactive, etc., may be assumed by it. Other examples of energy being transferred from one body to another include heat and work. Energy is always distributed after it has been transported in accordance with its type. Thus, heat transfer could result in thermal energy, whereas work could result in mechanical energy.

Motion is a trait shared by all forms of energy. For instance, if a body is moving, it has kinetic energy. Due to the object's design, which incorporates potential energy, a tensioned object, like a spring or bow, has the ability to move even when at rest.

In a simple harmonic motion, when the displacement from the equilibrium position is at its maximum,
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

When the displacement in the harmonic motion is maximum then kinetic energy at the maximum point is minimum and the potential energy is maximum at that point.  

So, when the displacement is maximum, spring force magnitude is also maximum because the force is proportional to the displacement and also the magnitude of the acceleration is maximum so, the net force is also maximum.

Astronaut Rob leaves Earth in a spaceship at a speed of 0.960c relative to an observer on Earth. Rob's destination is a star sys
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A) 15.0 years

Explanation:

Due to the distance to the star system is in light-year units, we can compute the time by using:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{14.4 l-y}{0.960}=15l-y

then, Rob will take to complete the trip about 15 light-years.

hope this helps!!

A wave is traveling at 241 m/s. It has a wavelength of 30.0 m. What is its frequency?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

A) 8.03Hz

Explanation:

f = V/λ

Where wavelength( λ )= 30m

Speed (V) =241m/S

f= 241/30=8.03Hz
