Explanation:

The Kyoto protocol is an international treaty agreed by many countries to reduce their carbon emission and other green house gases. It mainly targeted six green house gases namely

Nitrous oxide

Methane

Carbon dioxide

Hydrofluorocarbons

Sulphur hexafluoride

Perfluorocarbons

The Kyoto protocol is a voluntary involvement of various state countries which commits to decrease the level of harmful green house gases which is main cause for global warming.

A 12.0 μF capacitor is charged to a potential of 50.0 V and then discharged through a 265 Ω resistor. A)How long does the capaci
larisa [96]

(a) The time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms.

(b) The time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its charge</h3>

q(t) = q₀e-^(t/RC)

q(t)/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5q₀/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5 = e-^(t/RC)

1/2 =  e-^(t/RC)

t/RC = ln(2)

t = RC x ln(2)

t = (12 x 10⁻⁶ x 265) x ln(2)

t = 2.2 x 10⁻³ s

t = 2.2 ms

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its stored energy</h3>

U(t) = Ue-^(t/RC)

U = ¹/₂Q²/C

(Ue-^(t/RC))²/2C = Q₀²/2Ce

e^(2t/RC) = e

2t/RC = 1

t = RC/2

t = (265 x 12 x 10⁻⁶)/2

t = 1.59 x 10⁻³ s

t = 1.59 ms

Thus, the time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms and the time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

Calculate the rate of heat generation in kW due to the burning of the fuel when you drive a car rated at 34 MPG (miles per gallo
alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let us calculate gallon used in one hour .

It travels 70 miles in one hour

in 70 miles it uses 70 / 34 gallons of fuel

70 / 34 gallons = 70 / 34 x 3.7854 kg

= 7.8 kg

heat generated = 7.8 x 44 x 10⁶ J

= 343.2 x 10⁶ J

This is heat generated in one hour

heat generated in one second = 343.2 x 10⁶ / 60 x 60 J/s

= 95.33 x 10³ J /s

= 95.33 kW.

If you shout into the grand canyon, your voice travels at the speed of sound (340 m/s) to the bottom of the canyon and back, and
Nostrana [21]
Given:
The speed of sound is  340 m/s
Time for the echo is 5.2 s.

Let h = the depth of the canyon.

Because the sound of your voice travels to the bottom of the canyon and back to your ear, the total distance traveled is 2h.

By definition,
distance = velocity * time.
Therefore
2h = (340 m/s)*(5.2 s) = 1768 m
h = 884 m

Answer: The depth is 884 m.

21. An object is moving at 5 m/s and a height of 4 m. If the object has a mass of 5 kg what is
Stels [109]

Answer: 258.7 J

Explanation:

Velocity of object V=5m/s

Mass ; 5kg

Height; h=4m

Mechanical energy is equal to sum of kinetic and potential energy

E=K+Ep

Kinetic energy is calculeted using; K=m*V²/2

Potential energy is calculated using : Ep=m*G*h

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

V=5m/s

m=5kg

h=4m

E=K+Ep

E=m*V²/2+m*G*h

E=5kg*(5m/s)²/2+5kg*9.81m/s²*4m

E=62.5J+196.2J

E=258.7 J
