$Given:\\m=235.0kg\\h=69.0m\\t=38.1s\\g=9.81 \frac{m}{s^2} \\\\Find:\\P=?\\\\Solution:\\\\P= \frac{W}{t}\\\\W=\Delta E_p\\\\E_p_0=0\Rightarrow \Delta E_p=E_p\\\\E_p=mgh \\\\P= \frac{mgh}{t} \\\\P= \frac{235kg\cdot9.81 \frac{m}{s^2}\cdot69m}{38.1s} \approx 4175W=4.175kW$

Answer:

5.714 hours / day

Explanation:

<u>Calculate the hours used in that week </u>

120000 / 3000 = 120 / 3 = 40 hours a week

<u>Calculate the amount it is used in one day</u>

40 / 7 = 5.71428571 hours or 5.714 hours/day

The question states: two large, parallel conducting plates are 12cm

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1. 24375 N/C

2. 2925 V

Explanation:

d = 12 cm = 0.12 m

F = 3.9 x 10^-15 N

q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

1. The relation between the electric field and the charge is given by

F = q E

So, $E=\frac{F}{q}$

$E=\frac{3.9 \times 10^{-15}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$

E = 24375 N/C

2. The potential difference and the electric field is related by the given relation.

V = E x d

where, V be the potential difference, E be the electric field strength and d be the distance between the electrodes.

By substituting the values, we get

V = 24375 x 0.12 = 2925 Volt

Early humans used rocks as tools to make other things as well as to construct buildings. Why was it better for them to use rocks

babymother [125]

Wood isn't as tough as rock. Wood also breaks down in weather and cracks under pressure. Plus rocks were more accessible.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa

Explanation:

As wee know that the amplitude of the wave will decide the energy of the wave

Here we know that energy density of electromagnetic wave is given as

$u = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E_0^2$

now we have

$\frac{I}{c} = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E_0^2$

so here we can say that intensity of the wave at the given distance from the source is given by formula

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

so here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa.

A 21.7kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 2.2m/s. How much thermal energy due to frictio

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.

Potential energy loss:

M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J

Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:

= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J
