Answer:

0.799Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Data given

velocity, v= 200ft/s

Since the formula to define the the kinetic energy is

KE=v^{2}/2

where v=velocity and the final answer expressed in Btu/lbm

we just substitute the value of the velocity into the equation and we arrive at

KE=(200ft/s)^{2}/2\\KE=20,000ft^{2}/s^{2}

Now we convert to Btu/lbm

since

1 Btu/lbm=25,037ft^{2}/s^{2}\\

then

20000/25037\\=0.799Btu/lbm

Hence the kinetic energy in is 0.799Btu/lbm

A 0.10 kg ball of dough is thrown straight up into the air with an initial speed of 15 m/s.
Reptile [31]
<span>Mass of the ball is m = 0.10kg Initial speed of the Ball v = 15m/s a. When the ball is at maximum height the velocity is 0 Momentum of ball = mass x velocity Momentum = 0.10kg x 0 = 0 b. Getting the maximum height, Using the conservation of energy equation KEinitial = mgh 1/2mVin^2 = mgh => h = v^2/2g h = 15^2/2x9.8 = 11.48m => Half Height h = 5.96m Applying the conservation of energy equation at halfway V^2 = 2gh V = square root of (2x9.8x5.96) => V = square root of (116.816) So the velocity at the half way V = 10.81 m/s Momentum M = m x V => M = 0.10 x 10.81 => M = 1.081kg-m/s</span>

a lamp or bulb is marked 12 volt 240 Watts how many joules does it consume in one hour and what is the current that passes throu
valkas [14]

Answer:

1 watt is 1 Joule per second. 240 watt would then be 240 joules per second. How many seconds are there in an hour? Current formula is P= IV , P is 240(not the power in an hour because the current is calculated in seconds), and V is 12V. Then you will get I, the current.

Explain the process of refraction of light​
brilliants [131]

The process of refraction of light​ occurs when light rays bends when travelling between media of different densities.

What is refraction of light?

Refraction of light is the bending of light rays or the change in the direction of light rays as it travels between media of different densities.

Light waves travel faster in media of less density than media of more density.

The change in density of the media makes light waves to be bend towards or away from the normal.

For example, when light travels from less dense air to more dense water, the light rays are bent towards the normal. However, when light rays travel from water to air, the light rays are refracted away from the normal.

In conclusion, refraction of light waves occur when light crosses the boundary of media of different densities.
