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 element source has a decayed constant of 13.6pico per second. Calculate the half life of this element. ​
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

5.1 x 10¹⁰s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Decay constant  = 13.6 x 10⁻¹²/s

Unknown:

Half life of the element  = ?

Solution:

From the decay constant, we can find the half-life of this radioactive element.

  Half-life  = \frac{0.693}{decay constant}  

     Half-life  = \frac{0.693}{13.6 x 10^{-12} }   = 5.1 x 10¹⁰s

A ball is dropped from somewhere above a window that is 2.00 m in height. As it falls, it is visible to a person boxing through
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

4.14 m

Explanation:

In the last leg of the journey the ball covers 2 m in 2ms or 0.2 s .

Let in this last leg , u be the initial velocity.

s = ut + 1/2 g t²

2 = .2 u + .5 x 9.8 x .04

u = 9.02 m /s .

Let v be the final velocity in this leg

v² = u² + 2 g s

v² = (9.02)² + 2 x 9.8 x 2

= 81.36 +39.2

v = 10.97 m / s

Now consider the whole height from where the ball dropped . Let it be h.

Initial velocity u = 0

v² = u² +2gh

(10.97 )² = 2 x 9.8 h

h = 6.14 m

Height from window

= 6.14 - 2m

= 4.14 m

What should you do immediately if a boat motor catches fire?
olganol [36]
 If a boat motor catches fire, you should immediately shut off the fuel supply, and try to put out the fire with an extinguisher. It is very important to have fully charged fire extinguishers on hand. As soon as you notice the fire activate the extinguisher and do not panic. In order to prevent fire remember to c<span>lean the bilges often and maintain proper gear stowage, make sure short-tie cables are properly connected...</span>
