A typical student listening attentively to a physics lecture has a heat output of 100 w . how much heat energy does a class of 1
nexus9112 [7]

Since each student emits 100 W, so 170 students will emit:

total heat = 100 W * 170 = 17,000 W

 

Convert minutes to seconds:

time = 50 min * (60 s / min) = 3000 s

 

The energy is therefore:

E = 17,000 W * 3000 s

<span>E = 51 x 10^6 J = 51 MJ</span>

two forces A and B act on an object in opposite directions. A is bigger than B. What is the net force acting on an object?
Akimi4 [234]
Imagine a block with A pulling one way and B the other.

If A is bigger than B then obviously it will go in the direction of A.

The net force will be A-B as A is pulling it along with x but b is also pulling back with y.
