Answer:

Squirrel’s average speed = 277.78 m/s

Explanation:

Power of squirrel = 100 W

Mass of squirrel = 0.5 kg

Height climbed = 75 m

Potential energy = mgh = 0.5 x 9.81 x 75 = 367.875 J

We have

        \texttt{Power}=\frac{\texttt{Work}}{\texttt{Time}}

Substituting

       100=\frac{367.875}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Time}=0.27s

So squirrel need to cover 75 m in 0.27 s

Speed required

        v=\frac{75}{0.27}=277.78m/s

Squirrel’s average speed = 277.78 m/s

<h3>160 W</h3>

If the temperature is doubled to 2t, the rate at which it will now radiate is 160 W.

<h3>What is meant by emissivity?</h3>
  • The ability of a substance to reflect heat radiation from its surface is measured by its emissivity.
  • Thermal radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that includes infrared radiation, which the human eye cannot perceive, as well as visible radiation (light).
  • According to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, emissivity is the quantitative comparison between the thermal radiation of a surface and that of an ideal black surface at a given temperature.
  • Between 0 and 1 is the ratio's range.

<h3>What is energy radiation?</h3>
  • The emissivity of a substance is a measurement of how well it reflects heat radiation from its surface.
  • Two elements that affect power dissipation in the form of radiation are the material's surface emissivity and the temperature difference between the chip surface and the surrounding air.

A light bulb has a power rating of 60 W. What is the current running into it if it is plugged into a 120 V outlet?
kifflom [539]

Answer:

0.5 Amperes

Explanation:

Information that we have:

Power: P=60W

Voltage: V=120V

and we use the equation that relates this two quantities to the Current (I):

I=\frac{P}{V}

where I is the curent, P is the Power and V is the Voltage.

we substitute the values given for the Power and the Voltage to find the current:

I=\frac{60W}{120V}\\ I=0.5A

the Current running into the bulb is 0.5 Amperes

Una persona tiene 45 años de edad y una masa de 78 kg. ¿Cuántas horas ha vivido? ¿Cuál
Pavel [41]

Answer:

I will answer this in English.

He has 45 years.

a year has 365 days.

a day has 24 hours.

So he has:

45*365*24  hours = 394,200 hours.

His mass is 78 kg,

And we know that 1 slug = 1lbf*ft/s^2

Then, the first step is transform the 78 kg into lbf.

1kg = 2.2 lbf.

then 78kg = 78*2.2 lbf = 171.6lbf.

Now, the weight is m*g, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration, in this case the gravitational acceleration in ft/s^2 is:

g =  32.2 ft/s^2

Then the weight in slugs is:

W = 32.2ft/s^2*171.6lbf = 5,525.5 slugs

1. A 20m steel wire is stretched to 20.0m by
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Force to stretch the wire is 250 N

Explanation:

As we know that modulus of elasticity will remain the same for the wire if the applied stretch to the wire is within elastic limit

So we will have

\frac{F L}{\Delta L A} = constant

now we have

\frac{F_1 L}{\Delta L_1 A} = \frac{F_2 L}{\Delta L_2 A}

so we can write it as

F_2 = \frac{F_1 L_2}{L_1}

F_2 = \frac{50 (0.05)}{0.01}

F_2 = 250 N
