Answer: 800 J

Explanation:

Power is the rate between the energy transferred (E) and the time taken (t):

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

In this problem, the hair straightener has a power of P = 800 W. therefore, the energy transferred in t = 1 second is

$E=Pt=(800 W)(1 s)=800 J$

Power is a measure of the rate of energy or work done on a system. It has units of energy per time. In SI, Joules per second and is equal to the units of Watts. So, for an 800 Watts hair straightener, the energy transfer per second would be 800 Joules.

Astronomers estimate that a 2

M)³ / 6 = 4.2e9 m³
so its mass is 
M = 3300kg/m³ * 4.2e9m³ = 1.4e13 kg 
and so its KE at 16 km/s = 16000 m/s is 
KE = ½ * 1.4e13kg * (16000m/s)² = 1.8e21 J

# of bombs N = 1.8e21J / 4.0e16J/bomb = 44 234 bombs
give or take.

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial velocity of 29m/s from the top of a building

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock strike 2.42 seconds earlier.

Explanation:

This is an uniformly accelerated motion problem, so in order to find the arrival time we will use the following formula:

$x=vo*t+\frac{1}{2} a*t^2\\where\\x=distance\\vo=initial velocity\\a=acceleration$
