Explanation:

When the box is pushed against the floor then there will be a frictional force which will push the box in opposite direction of the force applied by the person.

Therefore, this frictional force will also release heat that will make the box and floor warm.

Hence, we can conclude that as a person pushes a box across a floor, the energy from the person’s moving arm is transferred to the box, and the box and floor become warm. During this process, energy is converted to heat energy because of the frictional force.

Design a battery to be constructed of D-cells, rated at 3Amp-hours and voltage 1.5V, that will provide a maximum operating curre
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

9 hours

Explanation:

For each battery:

Current = 1 A

Voltage = 1.5 V

current and EMF required = 5.0 A and 4.5 V

Since each battery has a current of 1 A, we'll need to link five of them in parallel with our load to get a current of 5 A. so that the total current equals 5 amps . Now that each battery has a 1.5 V voltage drop and we require an emf of 4.5 V, we would use three batteries in series rather than a single battery.  So, there is a need to must substitute every single battery with three batteries in series for all five single batteries linked in parallel.

So, the total no. of batteries is

= 5 × 3 = 15 batteries.

On each battery, the charge is = 3 amp hours

∴

The total charge = 15 × 3 = 45 amp hours.

Since the charge transferred within 1 hour = 5 amp

Then, the required lifetime of the battery is:

= 45 amp-hours/ 5 amp

= 9 hours

a brand of a lightbulb has a power of 55w and an efficiency of 1.6% how much power is wasted as heat by this lightbulb
Maru [420]
98.4% of the power turns into heat.

If the bulb consumes 55 watts,
then it "wastes"

(0.984) x (55w) = 54.12 watts
