E  =  IVt

Where E is the energy is J
I is the current
V is the voltage
t is time in seconds.

I = 3.2A    V = 110 V,  t = 5 hours.

Since the options are in Wh we would leave the time in hours, and Current * Voltage has a unit of  Watts.

E  =    (3.2 A   *   110 V)    * 5 hours

E =    352 Watts  *  5 hours

E =  1760  Wattshours

E = 1760 Wh

Option C.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

#_time = 7.5 10⁴ s

Explanation:

In order for the astronaut to be younger than the people on earth, it follows that the speed of light has a constant speed in vacuum (c = 3 108 m / s), therefore with the expressions of special relativity we have.

            t = \frac{t_p}{ \sqrt{1-  (v/c)^2} }

where t_p is the person's own time in an immobile reference frame,

           t_{p} = t \sqrt{1 - (\frac{v}{c})^2 }

let's calculate

we assume that the speed of the space station is constant

              t_p = 1 \sqrt{1 - \frac{8 \ 10^3}{3 \ 10^8} }

             t_p = 1 \sqrt{1- 2.6666 \ 10^{-5}}

             t_ =  0.99998666657   s

             

therefore the time change is

             Δt = t - t_p

             Δt = 1 - 0.9998666657                  

              Δt = 1.3333 10⁻⁵ s

this is the delay in each second, therefore we can use a direct rule of proportions. If Δt was delayed every second, how much second (#_time) is needed for a total delay of Δt = 1 s

               #_time = 1 / Δt

               #_time =\frac{1}{1.3333 \ 10^{-5}}

               #_time = 7.5 10⁴ s

How do i calculate this?
Lesechka [4]

CAR 1

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/20

M = 105 m/s^2

CAR 2

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/30

M = 70 m/s^2

How are velocity and acceleration related
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.  If an object is changing its velocity, its speed, or changing its direction, then it is said to be accelerating.

Explanation:

when you change directions or speed up you are accelerating (or decelerating)  and when you change directions or speed its called velocity.
