A recent home energy bill indicates that a household used 475475 kWh (kilowatt‑hour) of electrical energy and 135135 therms for

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,.

A house hold power consumption is

475 KWh

Gas used is

135 thermal gas for month

Given that, 1 thermal = 29.3 KWh

Then,

135 thermal = 135 × 29.3 = 3955.5 KWh

So, total power used is

P = 475 + 3955.5

P =4430.5 KWh

Since 1 hr = 3600 seconds

So, the energy consumed for 1hr is

1KW = 1000W

P = energy / time

Energy = Power × time

E = 4430.5 KWhr × 1000W / KW × 3600s / hr

E = 1.595 × 10^10 J

So, using Albert Einstein relativity equation

E = mc²

m = E / c²

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^8 m/s

m = 1.595 × 10^10 / (3 × 10^8)²

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg

Then,

1 kg = 10^6 mg

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg × 10^6 mg / kg

m = 0.177mg

m ≈ 0.18 mg

How long does it take light to travel 850 km in a vacuum? Answer in ms.(Express your answer to two significant figures.)

poizon [28]

Answer:

0.002833 sec

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum is $3\times 10^{8}m/sec$

Given distance = 850 km = 850×1000=850000 m

We have to calculate the time that light take to travel the distance 850 km

Time $T=\frac{distance }{speed}=\frac{850000}{3\times 10^8}=2.833\times 10^{-3}sec$

So the time taken by light to travel 850 km is 0.002833 sec

Malcolm and Ravi raced each other. The average of their maximum speeds was 260 km/h If doubled, Malcolm's maximum speed would be

AfilCa [17]

Answer

Given,

Average speed of Malcolm and Ravi = 260 km/h

Let speed of the Malcolm be X and speed of the Ravi Y.

From the given statement

$\dfrac{X+Y}{2}=260$

$X + Y = 520$ ....(i)

$2X - Y = 80$ ....(ii)

Adding both the equations

3 X = 600

X = 200 km/h

Putting value in equation (i)

Y = 520 - 200

Y = 320 Km/h

Speed of Malcolm = 200 Km/h

Speed of Ravi = 320 Km/h
