Answer:

(A)  power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

(B)  energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

Explanation:

energy consumed per day = 5 kWh

(a) find the power consumed in a day

         1 day = 24 hours

        power = \frac{energy}{time}

        power = \frac{5}{24}

          power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

         

(b) find the energy consumed in a year

    assuming it is not a leap year and number of days = 365 days

     1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds

            energy = power x time

            energy = 208 x 31,536,000

            energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

A factory worker pushes a 32.0 kg crate a distance of 7.0 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizontally on
g100num [7]

Answer:

(a) 81.54 N

(b) 570.75 J

(c) - 570.75 J

(d) 0 J, 0 J

(e) 0 J  

Explanation:

mass of crate, m = 32 kg

distance, s = 7 m

coefficient of friction = 0.26

(a) As it is moving with constant velocity so the force applied is equal to the friction force.

F = 0.26 x m x g = 0.26 x 32 x 9.8 = 81.54 N

(b) The work done on the crate

W = F x s = 81.54 x 7 = 570.75 J

(c) Work done by the friction

W' = - W = - 570.75 J

(d) Work done by the normal force

W'' = m g cos 90 = 0 J

Work done by the gravity

Wg = m g cos 90 = 0 J

(e) The total work done is

Wnet = W + W' + W'' + Wg = 570.75 - 570.75 + 0 = 0 J

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?
frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

I hope this helps a little! :)
