Two common gem varieties of the mineral corundum are ___ and __

The temperature scale which starts at absolute zero is the _____.

oksian1 [2.3K]

The temperature scale which starts at absolute zero is the Kelvin scale. The correct option in respect to the given question is the last option. William Thompson was the British scientist and inventor that invented the Kelvin scale. William Thompson was also popularly known as Lord Kelvin.His discovery of the Kelvin scale is considered one among the three best scales in use for measuring temperatures.Each measuring unit of this scale is never called a degree but a Kelvin. This specialized scale gives the option of measuring temperature in both centigrade and Fahrenheit.

How long would it take a 4,560 watt motor to raise a 166 kg piano to an apartment window

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Explanation:

We need the power equation here:

P = W/t where W is work and is defined as

W = F*displacement.

Force is a measure in Newtons, which is also weight. We have the mass of the piano, but we need to find the weight:

w = mg so

w = 166(9.8) so

w = 1600N, rounded to the correct number of sig dig. We use that now in the power equation:

$4560=\frac{(1600)(15)}{t}$ and isolating the unknown:

$t=\frac{(1600)(15)}{4560}$ so

t = 5.3 seconds
