We could take the easy way out and just say
(110 kW) x (3 hours) = 330 kilowatt hours .
But that's cheap, and hardly worth even 5 points.
If we want to talk energy, let's use the actual scientific unit of energy.
________________________________________________
" 110 kw " means 110,000 watts = 110,000 joules/second .
(3 hours) x (3600 sec/hour) = 10,800 seconds.
(110,000 joules/second) x (10,800 seconds) = 1.188 x 10⁹ Joules
That's
==> 1,188,000,000 joules
==> 1,188,000 kilojoules
==> 1,188 megajoules
==> 1.188 gigajoules
Atsa nawfulotta energy !
It goes back to that "110 kw appliance" that we started with.
That's no common ordinary household appliance. 110 kw is something like
147 horsepower. In order to bring 110 kw into your house, you'd need to
take 458 Amperes through the 240-volt line from the pole. Most houses
are limited to 100 or 200 Amperes, tops. And the TRANSFORMER on
the pole, that supplies the whole neighborhood, is probably a 50 kw unit.
When you heat up an object three things could possibly happen:
i) Increase in temperature of the object. Imagine heating up water, the temperature increases.
ii) Linear Expansion: The object could increase in length. For example if you heat up a steel rod, the length would increase as a result of linear expansion.
iii) Change of State: The object could change from solid state to liquid state or from liquid state to gaseous state, as the case may be. For example heating ice block to liquid water.
Answer: B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.
Explanation:
Weight is a force, and as we know by the second Newton's law:
F = m*a
Force equals mass times acceleration.
Then if the weight is:
Wx, and the mass is m, we have the equation:
Wx = m*a
Where in this case, a is the gravitational field strength.
Then, isolating a in that equation we get:
Wx/m = a
Then the correct option is:
B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.
The correct answer is:
True
Explanation:According to Newton's Gravitational law:
As you can see the gravitational force is directly proportional to the masses of the objects while inversely proportional to the square of distance (r^2) between them.
Hence, yes, your statement is true!
