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.

Explanation:

- Newton's first law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in uniform motion) remains at rest (or in uniform motion) unless acted upon an unbalanced force

In this situation, we can apply Newton's first law to the keys of the keyboard that are not hit by the fingers of the man. In fact, as no force act on the keys, they remain at rest.

- Newton's second law of motion:

"The acceleration experienced by an object is proportional to the net force exerted on the object; mathematically:

F=ma

where F is the net force, m is the mass of the object, and a its acceleration"

In this case, we can apply Newton's second law to the keys of the keyboard that are hit by the man: in fact, as they are hit, they experience a downward force, and therefore they experience a downward acceleration.

"Newton's third law of motion:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

Here We can apply Newton's third law to the pair of objects finger-key: in fact, as the finger apply a force on the key (action force), then the key exerts a force back on the finger (reaction force), equal and opposite.

The equation Bold r (t )equals(8 t plus 9 )Bold i plus (2 t squared minus 8 )Bold j plus (6 t )Bold k is the position of a parti
KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

It is given that, the position of a particle as as function of time t is given by :

r(t)=(8t+9)i+(2t^2-8)j+6tk

Let v is the velocity of the particle. Velocity of an object is given by :

v=\dfrac{dr(t)}{dt}

v=\dfrac{d[(8t+9)i+(2t^2-8)j+6tk]}{dt}

v=(8i+4tj+6k)\ m/s

So, the above equation is the velocity vector.

Let a is the acceleration of the particle. Acceleration of an object is given by :

a=\dfrac{dv(t)}{dt}

a=\dfrac{d[8i+4tj+6k]}{dt}

a=(4j)\ m/s^2

At t = 0, v=(8i+0+6k)\ m/s

v(t)=\sqrt{8^2+6^2} =10\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, which of the following statement must b
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

C. Each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

Explanation:

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

In a series connected capacitor, sane amount of charge flows through the capacitors while different potential difference is passed across them.

The capacitors have the same charge as the charge flowing out directly from the potential source called emf since the emf is the driving force of charge in a circuit.

Which is worse, failing or never trying?
guapka [62]
Personally I feel that never trying is worse because at least when you fail you know what you need to improve on and that way you at least get some closure. Where as when you never try it you would never know whether or not you were able to do it
