Answer:

m = 1.531kg

Explanation:

F = mg

m = F/g

m = 15/9.8 = 1.531kg (Approximately)

A 20 watt light bulb is left burning inside a refrigerator operating on a reverse Carnot cycle. If the refrigerator also draws 2
Gwar [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

Power drawn by the refrigerator = 20 watt

Power of burning light inside = 20 watt

Room temperature = 27°C

We need to calculate the temperature

Using formula of coefficient of refrigerator

COR_{R}=\dfrac{Q_{c}}{W}

\dfrac{Q_{c}}{W}=\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{20}{20}=\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}

\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}=1

T_{h}=2T_{c}

T_{c}=\dfrac{T_{h}}{2}

T_{c}=\dfrac{27+273}{2}

T_{c}=150\ K

T_{c} is less than T_{h}

Therefore, refrigerator cools its interior below room temperature while the bulb is on.

Hence, This is the required solution.

Two point charges, 3.4 μC and -2.0 μC , are placed 5.0 cm apart on the x axis. Assume that the negative charge is at the origin,
Elza [17]

The electric field is zero at x = -16.45cm

Data;

  • q1 = 3.4 μC
  • q2 = -2.0 μC
  • distance = 5cm

<h3>The Electric Field at point 0</h3>

As the 3μC is larger than -2.0μC  and the charges are opposite sign. The electric field will be zero at the negative axis.

Let the point be at x.

For an electric field to be equal to zero;

k(\frac{q_1}{d_1})^2 + k(\frac{q_2}{d_2})^2 = 0\\\frac{3.4}{(5-x)^2} - \frac{2}{x^2} = 0\\

Let's solve for x using mathematical methods.

\frac{3.4x^2 - 2(5-x)^2}{(5-x)^2x^2}= 0\\ 3.4x^2 - 2(5-x^2) = 0\\3.4x^2 - 50 - 2x^2 + 20x = 0\\1.4x^2 +20x - 50 = 0

Solving the above quadratic equation;

x = -16.45cm

The electric field is zero at x = -16.45cm

Inessa [10]

Answer:

90m

Explanation:

Distance is not a vector but a scalar quantity. depicted by a quantity only.

hence:

Distance is equal to 30+40+20 = 90 m

Describe the relationship between the potential energy and kinetic energy of an object and the amount of Kinetic energy it can g
ankoles [38]

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy it contains due to movement. If an object is at rest, it doesn't have kinetic energy. If it's moving, then it has kinetic energy. It's pretty simple! The amount of kinetic energy of an object is dependent upon two variables, one being the mass of the object
