A supersonic aircraft consumes 5320 imperial gallons of kerosene per hour of flight and flies an average of 14 hours per day. it

takes roughly seven tons of crude oil to produce one ton of kerosene. the density of kerosene is 0 965 g/cm . how many planes would it take to consume the entire annual world production of 4 02 10 metric tons of crude oil?

5320*14= 74480 gallons. <span>
First let us convert gallons to cm^3 and we get 2.819374858x10^8 cm^3. 
We then multiply with density and then times 1000 to get it in terms of tons. 
Then multiply the number by 7 to get how many tons of crude oil a single plane uses in 14 hrs. 
Finally divide this by the production of crude oil.

A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

A mine car (mass=390 kg) rolls at a speed of 0.50 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing shows. A 250-kg chunk of coal has a
Nady [450]

Answer:

v=0.60 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m ₁= 390 kg ,u ₁= 0.5 m/s

m₂ = 250 kg ,u₂ = 0.76 m/s

As we know that if there is no any external force on the system the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m ₁u ₁+m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m ₁ ) v

Now putting the values in the above equation

390 x 0.5 + 250 x 0.76 = (390 + 250 ) v

v=\dfrac{390\times 0.5+250\times 0.76}{390+250}\ m/s

v=0.60 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the system will be 0.6 m/s.

Help mee! Physics i think!
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Use the form of equation:

Q=mL

You have the specific latent heat of vaporization L = 2.260*10^{6}

And Q, the heat energy supplied, which equals 1695 KJ = 1695*10^{3} J

So you can get the mass by substitution in the formula below.

What is nuclear fission? why is this process important to stars?
KIM [24]

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new nucleus. This process is important to stars because they get their energy from the nuclear fusion process
