Answer:

D. 130 J

Explanation:

The coefficient of performance for a machine that is being used to cool, is given by:

COP=\frac{Q_C}{W}=\frac{T_C}{T_H-T_C}

Here Q_C  is the heat removed from the cold reservoir, W is the work required, that is, the energy required to remove the heat from the interior of the house, T_C is the cold temperature and T_H is the hot temperature. Recall use absolutes temperatures(273.15+^\circ C). Replacing and solving for W:

W=Q_c\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}\\W=2000J\frac{312.15K-293.15K}{293.15K}\\W=129.63J

A 15 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring with spring constant 230 N/m and compresses it by 56 cm .What was the speed of t
liubo4ka [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy. Thus we will have that the kinetic energy is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

And the potential energy is

PE = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Here,

m = mass

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

k = Spring constant

There is equilibrium, then,

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Our values are given as,

x=0.56m\\k=230N/m\\m=15kg

Replacing we have that

\frac{1}{2} (15)v^2 = \frac{1}{2} (230)(0.56)^2

v = 2.19m/s

Therefore the speed of the cart is 2.19m/s

Answer:

Objects; waves.

Explanation:

Waves interact with objects and other waves. Thus, waves are used on objects such as mobile phones and can be transformed from one form to another.

There are various types of waves in our physical environment such as gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet waves, radio waves etc.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Basically, as a result of radio waves having long wavelengths, they are mainly used in long-distance communications such as the carriage and transmission of data. Some examples of communication technologies that uses radio waves are radio set, mobile phones, television etc.

Which type of wave is described as a wave that is not confined to the space along medium?
Dmitry [639]

Traveling wave is a wave that is not confined to the space along medium.

traveling wave is a wave that travels along the medium causing disturbance. instead of vibrating at the same place, the particles actually move in the direction of wave. one common example of such type of wave is ocean waves.

You are pulling a child in a wagon. The rope handle is inclined upward at a 60∘ angle. The tension in the handle is 20 N.
dem82 [27]
  • Angle (θ) = 60°
  • Force (F) = 20 N
  • Distance (s) = 200 m
  • Therefore, work done
  • = Fs Cos θ
  • = (20 × 200 × Cos 60°) J
  • = (20 × 200 × 1/2) J
  • = (20 × 100) J
  • = 2000 J
