Kaylis [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

one kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ J

75 kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

So rate which energy is coming out of coal per second

= 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

= 2025 x 10⁶ J /s

2025 million watts .

b ) energy output = 800 million watts

efficiency = (800 / 2025) x 100

= 39.5 % .

A woman is applying 300N/m2 of pressure on to door with her hand. Her hand has area of 0.02m2. Work out the force being applied​
never [62]

Answer:

6N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure applied by the woman  = 300N/m²

Area = 0.02m²

Unknown:

Force applied  = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body

        Pressure  = \frac{force}{area}

         Force  = Pressure x area

        Force  = 300 x 0.02  = 6N
