convert watts to hpThe headlights of a moving car draw about 9 A from the 12 V alternator, which is driven by the engine. Assume

the alternator is 85% efficient (its output electrical power is 85% of its input mechanical power), and calculate the horsepower the engine must supply to run the lights.

Answer: 0.17hp

Explanation:

Power output = power input × 85%

Power output = power input × 0.85

Power input = IV/0.85

Power input = 9×12/0.85

Power input = 108/0.85

= 127.058 watts

Converting to horse power = 127.058W × 1horse power/745.7W

= 127.058 × 0.001341

= 0.17hp

natta225 [31]

Answer:

D. 3 hours or more

Explanation:

The average 8- to 18-year-old spends at least D. 3 hours every day in front of a screen, performing little to no physical activity. This is because, instead of exercising and socializing with their peers, children and teenagers frequently talk, watch a lot of movies/shows, or play video games on their computers. Unfortunately, this is typically considerably more than three hours every day. Although some children still prefer physical activities over this, the bulk of the population does not.

What is the product of an object’s mass and velocity? momentum net force kinetic energy
kaheart [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is momentum.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity.

It is a term which describes the relationship between the mass of an object and the velocity of an object.

Momentum can be represented in the form of an equation as:

P = mv

where P is the momentum,

m is the mass of the object; and v is the velocity of that object.

postnew [5]

Answer: Velocity=8.26m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration=Finial velocity (V) - Initial velocity (u) ÷ Time

that is, a=v-u/t

a=1.2m/s², v=?, u=5.5m/s, t=2.3s

From a=v-u/t, make v the subject of the formula

v=at + u

v=(1.2* 2.3) + 5.5

v=2.76+5.5

v=8.26m/s
