Answer:

A. 4,440 N

Explanation:

A Force applied on an object with mass 'm' can change its velocity in a unit time. This change is called acceleration.

If a force 'F' is applied on a body of mass 'm', it produces an acceleration 'a' in the body.

Force is give as :

F = ma

In our case,

m = 1200 kg    a = 3.7 m/s²

F = 1200 x 3.7

F = 4440 kgm/s²

F = 4440 N

What total mass must be converted into energy
Eduardwww [97]

This question apparently wants you to get comfortable
with  E = m c² .  But I must say, this question is a lame
way to do it.

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
                                                    E = m c²

                           1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule  =  (m) (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

Divide each side by (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²:

                         Mass = (1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                                   =  (1.03 / 9) x (10⁻¹³ ⁻ ¹⁶) (kg)

                                   =        1.144 x 10⁻³⁰  kg .    (choice-1)

This is roughly the mass of (1 and 1/4) electrons, so it seems
that it could never happen in nature.  The question is just an
exercise in arithmetic, and not a particularly interesting one.

The Braidwood Nuclear Power Generating Station in northeastern
Ilinois USA serves Chicago and northern Illinois with electricity.
<span>The station has two pressurized water reactors, which can generate
a net total of 2,242 megawatts at full capacity, making it the largest
nuclear plant in the state.
If the Braidwood plant were able to completely convert mass
to energy, how much mass would it need to convert in order
to provide the total electrical energy that it generates in a year,
operating at full capacity ?

Energy = (2,242 x 10⁶ joule/sec) x (86,400 sec/day) x (365 da/yr)

             =  (2,242 x 10⁶ x 86,400 x 365) joules

             =          7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules .

How much converted mass is that ?

                                           E  =  m c²

Divide each side by  c² :    Mass  =  E / c² .
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

              Mass = (7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                        =        0.786 kilogram ! ! !

THAT should impress us !  If I've done the arithmetic correctly,
then roughly  (1 pound  11.7 ounces) of mass, if completely
converted to energy, would provide all the energy generated
by the largest nuclear power plant in Illinois, operating at max
capacity for a year !

Belly-flop Bernie dives from atop a tall flagpole into a swimming pool below. His potential energy at the top is 7000 J (relativ
elena55 [62]

Answer:

KE₂ = 6000 J

Explanation:

Given that

Potential energy at top U₁= 7000 J

Potential energy at bottom U₂= 1000 J

The kinetic energy at top ,KE₁= 0 J

Lets take kinetic energy at bottom level =  KE₂

Now from energy conservation

U₁+ KE₁= U₂+ KE₂

Now by putting the values

U₁+ KE₁= U₂+ KE₂

7000+ 0 = 1000+ KE₂

KE₂ = 7000 - 1000 J

KE₂ = 6000 J

Therefore the kinetic energy at bottom is 6000 J.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: Technician A is correct

Explanation:

The intake manifold is the compactment that all fuel and air supply to the cylinders. It's connected to the engine so it has to be disconnected while the exhaust manifold receives all the exhaust gases from the cylinders and releases the gas through a single or double exhaust gases outlet.

Sound source A has a deciBel rating of 50 dB. Sound source B is 1000 times more intense. What is the deciBel rating of B
masha68 [24]

The decibel system of sound intensity operates by a logarithmic scale, meaning that sound intensity increases exponentially in relation to the decibel rating.

For decibels, the equation between intensity and the dB equivalent is:

dB = 10log(i),

where “i” is the intensity of the sound. The ten in front of the log means that an increase in ten dB results in a tenfold increase in sound intensity; for example, a 30 dB sound is ten times softer than a 40 dB sound.

In this case, a sound with a dB of 80 would be 1000 times more intense than a 50 dB sound, so the decibel rating of B is 80.

Hope this helps!
