Answer:

The annual operating cost of the refrigerator is $102.78.

Explanation:

Power consumed by the refrigerator = 247 W = 247/1000 = 0.247 kW

Daily operation of the refrigerator = 19 hours

Annual operation of the refrigerator = 365 × 19 = 6,935 hours

Annual energy consumed = 0.247 kW × 6,935 hours = 1712.945 kWh

1 kWh of electricity cost $0.06

1712.945 kWh will cost 1712.945 × $0.06 = $102.78

Annual operating cost = $102.78

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$102.7767

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Energy, E, consumed by a device is the product of the power, P, consumed by the device and the duration (time), t, of consumption. i.e;

E = p x t         ----------------(i)

The refrigerator consumes 247W of power and operates 19 hours per day.

This implies that the refrigerator consumes 0.247kW of power and operates 19 hours per day.

This means that the energy used per day is given by substituting p = 0.247kW and t = 19h into equation (i) as follows;

E = 0.247kW x 19h

E = 4.693kWh

From the question, it is given that the cost of electricity is $0.06 per kWh. i.e

$0.06 = 1 kWh

Then;

4.693kWh = 4.693kWh x $0.06 / 1kWh = $0.28158

Therefore, the cost of electricity per day due to the refrigerator is $0.28158.

Now, to get the annual (365 days) cost of electricity, we multiply the result by 365 as follows;

Annual cost = 365 x $0.28158

Annual cost = $102.7767

Which of the following ranges depicts the 2% tolerance range to the full 9 digits provided?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

the only one that meets the requirements is option C .

Explanation:

The tolerance of a quantity is the maximum limit of variation allowed for that quantity.

To find it we must have the value of the magnitude, its closest value is the average value, this value can be given or if it is not known it is calculated with the formula

         x_average = ∑ x_{i} / n

The tolerance or error is the current value over the mean value per 100

         Δx₁ = x₁ / x_average

         tolerance = | 100 -Δx₁  100 |

bars indicate absolute value

let's look for these values ​​for each case

a)

    x_average = (2.1700000+ 2.258571429) / 2

    x_average = 2.2142857145

fluctuation for x₁

        Δx₁ = 2.17000 / 2.2142857145

        Tolerance = 100 - 97.999999991

        Tolerance = 2.000000001%

fluctuation x₂

        Δx₂ = 2.258571429 / 2.2142857145

        Δx2 = 1.02

        tolerance = 100 - 102.000000009

        tolerance 2.000000001%

b)

    x_average = (2.2 + 2.29) / 2

    x_average = 2,245

fluctuation x₁

         Δx₁ = 2.2 / 2.245

         Δx₁ = 0.9799554

         tolerance = 100 - 97,999

         Tolerance = 2.00446%

fluctuation x₂

          Δx₂ = 2.29 / 2.245

          Δx₂ = 1.0200445

          Tolerance = 2.00445%

c)

   x_average = (2.211445 +2.3) / 2

   x_average = 2.2557225

       Δx₁ = 2.211445 / 2.2557225 = 0.9803710

       tolerance = 100 - 98.0371

       tolerance = 1.96%

       Δx₂ = 2.3 / 2.2557225 = 1.024624

       tolerance = 100 -101.962896

       tolerance = 1.96%

d)

   x_average = (2.20144927 + 2.29130435) / 2

   x_average = 2.24637681

       Δx₁ = 2.20144927 / 2.24637681 = 0.98000043

       tolerance = 100 - 98.000043

       tolerance = 2.000002%

       Δx₂ = 2.29130435 / 2.24637681 = 1.0200000017

       tolerance = 2.0000002%

e)

   x_average = (2 +2,3) / 2

   x_average = 2.15

   Δx₁ = 2 / 2.15 = 0.93023

   tolerance = 100 -93.023

   tolerance = 6.98%

   Δx₂ = 2.3 / 2.15 = 1.0698

   tolerance = 6.97%

Let's analyze these results, the result E is clearly not in the requested tolerance range, the other values ​​may be within the desired tolerance range depending on the required precision, for the high precision of this exercise the only one that meets the requirements is option C .

uysha [10]

Answer:

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³(L/(mol.s))

Explanation:

We know that

k = Ae^{-E/RT} ------------------- euqation (1)

K= rate constant;

A = frequency factor = 4.36 10^11 M⁻¹s⁻¹;

E = activation energy = 93.1kJ/mol;

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K;

T= temperature = 332 K;

Put values in equation 1.

k = 4.36*10¹¹(M⁻¹s⁻¹)e^{[(-93.1*10^3)(J/mol)]/[(8.314)(J/mol.K)(332K)}

k = 4.2154 * 10⁻³(M⁻¹s⁻¹)

here M =mol/L

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³((mol/L)⁻¹s⁻¹)

 or

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³((L/mol)s⁻¹)

or

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³(L/(mol.s))
