A 50-ω resistor is connected to a 9.0 V battery. How much thermal energy is produced in 7.5 minutes?1.2 * 10^2 J1.3 * 10^3 J3.0

emmasim [6.3K]

In order to calculate the thermal energy, first let's calculate the power, using the formula:

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$

For a voltage V = 9 Volts and a resistance R = 50 ohms, we have:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{9^2}{50} \\ P=\frac{81}{50}=1.62\text{ W} \end{gathered}$

Now, multiplying the power by the time (in seconds), we can find the energy:

$\begin{gathered} E=P\cdot t \\ E=1.62\cdot7.5\cdot60 \\ E=729\text{ J} \end{gathered}$

In scientific notation, we have an energy of 7.3 * 10^2 J, therefore the correct option is the fourth one.

1. A DC-10 jumbo jet maintains an airspeed of 550 mph in a southwesterly direction. The velocity of the jet stream is a constant

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The magnitude of actual velocity is 496.67 mph and its direction is 51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant.

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of jumbo jet in southwesterly direction $(v_j)$ = 550 mph

Velocity of jet stream from west to east direction $(v_s)=80\ mph$

First let us draw a vectorial representation of the above velocity vectors.

Consider the south direction as negative y axis and west direction as negative x axis.

From the diagram,

The velocity of the jet can be represented as:

$\vec{v_j}=-550\cos(45)\vec{i}+(-550\sin(45)\vec{j} )\\\\\vec{v_j}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\ mph$

Similarly, the velocity of the stream is, $\vec{v_s}=80\vec{i}$

Now, the vector sum of the above two vectors gives the actual velocity of the aircraft. So, the resultant velocity is given as:

$\vec{v}=\vec{v_j}+\vec{v_s}\\\\\vec{v}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}+80\vec{i}\\\\\vec{v}=(-388.91+80)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\\\\\vec{v}=(-308.91)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}$

Now, magnitude is given as the square root of sum of the squares of the 'i' and 'j' components. So,

$|\vec{v}|=\sqrt{(-308.91)^2+(-388.91)^2}\\\\|\vec{v}|=496.67\ mph$

As the horizontal and vertical components of actual velocity negative, the resultant vector makes an angle $\theta$ with the x axis in the third quadrant.

The direction is given as:

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{-388.91}{-308.91})\\\\\theta=51.54\°(Third\ quadrant)$

Therefore, the magnitude of actual velocity is 496.67 mph and its direction is 51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant.

¿Cuantos metros recorre una motocicleta en un segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90km/h?

Zina [86]

Answer:

La motocicleta recorre 25 metros en 1 segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90 km/h

Explanation:

La velocidad es una magnitud que expresa el desplazamiento que realiza un objeto en una unidad determinada de tiempo, esto es, relaciona el cambio de posición (o desplazamiento) con el tiempo.

Siendo la velocidad es el espacio recorrido en un período de tiempo determinado, entonces 90 km/h indica que en 1 hora la motocicleta recorre 90 km. Entonces, siendo 1 h= 3600 segundos (1 h=60 minutos y 1 minuto=60 segundos) podes aplicar la siguiente regla de tres: si en 3600 segundos (1 hora) la motocicleta recorre 90 km, entonces en 1 segundo ¿cuánta distancia recorrerá?

$distancia=\frac{1 segundo*90 km}{3600 segundos}$

distancia= 0.025 km

Por otro lado, aplicas la siguiente regla de tres: si 1 km es igual a 1,000 metros, ¿0.025 km cuántos metros son?

$distancia=\frac{0.025 km*1,000 metros}{1 km}$

distancia= 25 metros

La motocicleta recorre 25 metros en 1 segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90 km/h

Describe how a wind turbine generates energy.

Artyom0805 [142]

The wind Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.
