The total charge that an automobile battery can supply without being recharged is given in terms of Ampere-hours. A typical 12-V

battery has a rating of 49 A · h . Suppose you forget to turn off the headlights in your parked automobile. If each of the two headlights draws 3.5 A , find out the time before your battery is "dead". Answer in units of hours. Answer in units of h

Answer:

7 hours

Explanation:

The total charge contained in the battery is

Q = 49 A \cdot h

And this is a charge, since it is a current multiplied by a time:

Q=It

The current drawn by each headlight (which is the charge consumed per second) is

I=3.5 A

Since we have two headlight, the total current drawn is

I=3.5 \cdot 2 = 7 A

Therefore, the total charge consumed by the two headlights each hour is

q = I \cdot h = 7 A \cdot h

So, the time before the battery is dead is

t=\frac{Q}{q}=\frac{49 Ah}{7Ah}=7 h

The Moon has too little iron, Mercury too much. How can both of these anomalies be the result of giant impacts? Explain how the
arsen [322]

Answer:

Explanation:

Giant impact has resulted into formation of celestial bodies such as moon.

Moon was formed years after the Earth was formed. When Earth collided with very big size bodies, there was vaporization of chunks of the planets in to the space. Gravity plays its role and bounded those particles together thus forming moon.

This formation explains Moon is made up of lighter elements and contains too little iron where as Mercury was formed with the rest of the planets and just like earth, its core is formed first which is of iron and then collected the lighter elements to form crust and mantle.

Though both Moon and Mercury were the result of giant impacts yet they have different elements because mercury was made earlier and its is closer to moon hence it collected heavy elements such as iron to for the formation where as moon is the result of collision of Earth and other Mars- sized body hence its constituent particles are different that of mercury.

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Answer:

71.6°

Explanation:

According to the diagram

ED = 6 feet

DA = EB = 3 feet

AC = 15 feet

AB = ED = 6 feet

BC = AC - AB = 15 - 6 = 9 feet

Let the angle is θ from the horizontal

By the triangle EBC

tanθ = BC / EB = 9 / 3

tanθ = 3

θ = 71.6°

Thus, the angle from the horizontal is 71.6°.
