Both the answers from "Big D" and "N9KXF" are correct, but not complete. There is one aspect that needs to be remembered for AC power - the phase relationship between the voltage and current. 

<span>For AC power, the more complete equation for power is P = V * I * cosx, where x is the phase angle between voltage and current. </span>

<span>If the phase angle between voltage and current is 90 degrees, then even though current may be flowing, the total power over a cycle would be zero. Reactive elements like inductors and capacitors have a 90degree phase relationship between voltage and current. They do not "dissipate" energy. They store energy and give it back during different parts of the AC cycle. </span>

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Juan lives 100 m away from Bill.What is Juan's averege speed if he reaches Bill's home in 50 s?
Tom [10]
Juan lives a hundred miles away from Bill then the average speed that he reaches Bill's Home in 50 seconds means that Juan lives 50 seconds away from bill because 50 + 50 seconds equals 100 seconds so Juansorry my bad Juan lives 50 miles away from Belle but he probably how I must have run to get to bill in 50 seconds .

What is a microwave?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength in the range 0.001–0.3 m, shorter than that of a normal radio wave but longer than those of infrared radiation. Microwaves are used in radar, in communications, and for heating in microwave ovens and in various industrial processes.

An object with a mass of 375g is moving with a constant velocity. It has a force of -20 N applied to it. Determine the accelerat
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Convert the mass to kg:

375g = 375/1000kg = 0.375kg

F = ma

-20 = 0.375a

a = -20/0.375

a = -53

The object is accelerating at 53m/s/s backwards assuming that the forward motion is positive.
