The number of kilowatts used by an individual to operate his appliances is determined as 12.1 kWh.

<h3>Average daily power consumption</h3>

The average daily power consumption is the amount of electric energy consumed by an individual on a daily rate.

The average daily power consumption of individuals in USA is 12,100 W-hr.

<h3>Converting watts to kilowatts</h3>

E = 12,100 Whr/1000

E = 12.1 kWh

Thus, the number of kilowatts used by an individual to operate his appliances is determined as 12.1 kWh.

A body travels the first half of the total distance with velocity v and second half with v2 calculate avg velocity

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)

Explanation:

The body travels the first half of the distance with velocity v₁. The time it takes is:

t₁ = (d/2) / v₁

t₁ = d / (2v₁)

Similarly, the body travels the second half with velocity v₂, so the time is:

t₂ = (d/2) / v₂

t₂ = d / (2v₂)

The average velocity is the total displacement over total time:

v = d / t

v = d / (t₁ + t₂)

v = d / (d / (2v₁) + d / (2v₂))

v = d / (d/2 (1/v₁ + 1/v₂))

v = 2 / (1/v₁ + 1/v₂)

v = 2 / ((v₁ + v₂) / (v₁ v₂))

v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)

a person was using a spanner to loosen a tight nut.Their mass was 50kg the spanner was 0.5m long i) what is the persons weight?

sineoko [7]

1) Weight of the person: 490 N

2) Maximum torque: 245 Nm

Explanation:

The weight of a body is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the body; it is given by the equation

$F=mg$

where

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration due to gravity

For the person in this problem,

m = 50 kg is the mass

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth's surface

Therefore, the weight of the person is

$F=(50)(9.8)=490 N$

The turning force (also called torque) exerted by a force rotating an object is given by

$\tau = Fd sin \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the length of the arm (the distance between the force and the pivotal point)

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the arm

For the spanner in this problem,

F = 490 N is the force applied (the weight of the person)

d = 0.5 m is the arm (the length of the spanner)

The maximum torque is obtained when $\theta=90^{\circ}$ , therefore it is:

$\tau=(490)(0.5)(sin 90^{\circ})=245 N\cdot m$
