Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,

Wtoaster , which is used for 5.40 minutes , and then calculate the amount of energy that an 11.0 W compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulb, Wlight , uses when left on for 10.50 hours .

Energy = (power) x (time)

-- <u>For the toaster:</u>

Power = 1.4 kW  =  1,400 watts

Time = 5.4 minutes = 324 seconds

Energy = (1,400 W) x (324 s)  =  453,600 Joules

-- <u>For the CFL bulb:</u>

Power = 11 watts

Time = 10.5 hours = 37,800 seconds

Energy = (11 W) x (37,800 s)  =  415,800 Joules

-- The toaster uses energy at 127 times the rate of the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses energy at 0.0079 times the rate of the toaster.

-- The toaster is used for 0.0086 times as long as the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb is used for 116.7 times as long as the toaster.    

-- The toaster uses 9.1% more energy than the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses 8.3% less energy than the toaster.

The pertinent equation here is F=ma.  You haven't shared the mass of the box, so I will use M to represent that mass.

Then F = M(<span>2.3 m/s^2)        (answer)</span>

Answer:

1.It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.

2.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.

3.In nuclear reactions, mass is never conserved—some mass is exchanged for energy and energy for mass. Nuclear reactions take place in an atom's nucleus. In a spontaneous nuclear reaction, such as radioactive decay, mass is "lost" and appears as energy in the form of particles or gamma rays.

4.In a nuclear reaction, mass decreases and energy increases. The sum of mass and energy is always conserved in a nuclear reaction.

5.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.

The maximum height to which the ball attain before falling back down is 1147.96 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 150 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Maximum height (h) =?

<h3>How to determine the maximum height </h3>

The maximum height reached by the ball can be obtained as illustrated below:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 150² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 22500 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 22500 = –19.6h

–22500 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –22500 / –19.6

h = 1147.96 m

Thus, the maximum height reached by the ball is 1147.96 m

What is the action force and the reaction force when you sit down on a chair
Licemer1 [7]
The action force is when you are putting your weight on the chair when you are sitting down. the reaction force is the force exerted by the chair that pushes up on your body and is equal to your weight.
