Answer:
22.2 W
Explanation:
First of all, we calculate the work done by moving the wagon, using the formula:
where
F = 20 N is the magnitude of the force
d = 1000 m is the displacement of the wagon
is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement (assuming the force is applied in the direction of motion)
Substituting, we find
Now we can find the power generated, which is equal to the ratio between the work done and the time taken:
where
W = 20,000 J
t = 15 min = 900 s
Substituting,
And the same value in Joules/second (remember that 1 Watt = 1 Joule/second)
Answer:
$893
Explanation: the complete question should be
The clothes washer in your house consumes 470 kWh of energy per year. Price of the washer is $360 and the lifetime of the washer is 10 yrs. Energy price in your city is 9 cents per kWh. What is the lifecycle cost of the clothes washer? (assume a maintenance cost of $11 per year)
SOLUTION
Given:
The clothes washe power consumption (PC) is 470 kWh
Price of the washer (P) is $360
lifetime of the washer (L) is 10 yrs
Energy price in the city (E) is 9 cents per kWh (Covert to $ by dividing 100)
maintenance cost (M) is $11 per year
Lifecycle cost = P + (PC × L × E) +M + L
Lifecycle cost = $360 + (470kWh × 10years × 9cents/100) + ($11 × 10years)
=$893
The answer is gravity. I hope this helps.
