Answer: LED have the lowest cost of operation.

Explanation:

If we ignore the initial procurement cost of the items the operational cost of any device consuming electricity is given by

$Cost=Energy\times cost/unit$

Among the three item's LED consumes the lowest power to give the same level of brightness as compared to the other 2 item's thus LED's shall have the lowest operational cost.

The bulk modulus of a material is 3.5 ✕ 1011 N/m2. What percent fractional change in volume does a piece of this material underg

kiruha [24]

Answer:

percentage change in volume = 0.00285 %

Explanation:

given data

bulk modulus = 3.5 × $10^{11}$ N/m²

bulk stress = $10^{7}$ N/m²

solution

we will apply here bulk modulus formula that is

bulk modulus = $\frac{bulk\ stress}{bulk\ strain}$ ...............1

put here value and we get

3.5 × $10^{11}$ = $\frac{10^7}{bulk\ strain}$

solve it we get

bulk strain = 2.8571 × $10^{-5}$

and

bulk strain = $\frac{change\ volume}{original\ volume}$

so that percentage change in volume is = 2.8571 × $10^{-5}$ × 100

percentage change in volume = 0.00285 %

Compact fluorescent bulbs are much more efficient at producing light than are ordinary incandescent bulbs. They initially cost m

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

ordinary bulb total cost is $39.54

fluorescent bulb total cost is $13.05

amount save = 39.54 - 13.05 = $26.49

resistance = 626.1 ohm

Explanation:

in the 1st part

bulb on time = 3 year = 4380 hours

life of bulb = 750 h

so number of bulb required = $\frac{4380}{750}$

number of bulb required = 6

cost of 6 bulb is = 6 × 0.75 = $4.5

cost of operation is = 100 × 4380 × $\frac{0.08}{1000}$

cost of operation = $35.04

so total cost will be = $4.5 + $35.04 = $39.54

and

when compare with florescent bulb

time = 3 year = 4380 h

life of bulb = 10000 h

so number of bulb required = $\frac{4380}{10000}$

number of bulb required = 0.43 = 1

cost of 6 bulb is = 1 × 5 = $5

cost of operation is = 23 × 4380 × $\frac{0.08}{1000}$

cost of operation = $8.05

so total cost will be = $5 + $8.05 = $13.05

in part 2nd

total amount save while compare bulb is

amount save = 39.54 - 13.05 = $26.49

and in part 3rd

resistance of bulb is

resistance = $\frac{v^2}{P}$

resistance = $\frac{120^2}{23}$

resistance = 626.1 ohm

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

b. equal to the specific entropy of the gas at the inlet.

Explanation:

Isentropic process is the process in which the entropy of the system remains unchanged. The word isentropic is formed from the combination of the prefix "iso" which means "equal" and the word entropy.

If a process is completely reversible, without the need to provide energy in the form of heat, then the process is isentropic.
