Electricity costs 10p per unit. How much will it cost Sam to use a 85W laptop and a 60W lamp for an hour?

Goryan [66]

The standard unit is KW/hr, = 1,000W/hr.
(85 + 60) = 145W.
You need to find its fraction of 1,000W., so (145/1000) = 0.145 KWH.
(0.145 x 10p) = 1.45p. per hr.

A ball is thrown directly downward with an initial speed of 7.70 m/s, from a height of 30.2 m. After what time interval does it

KatRina [158]

Answer:

$t = 1.82$

Explanation:

Given

$u = 7.70m/s$ -- initial velocity

$s = 30.2m$ --- height

Required

Determine the time to hit the ground

This will be solved using the following motion equation.

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where

$g = 9,8m/s^2$

So, we have:

$30.2 = 7.70t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2$

$30.2 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2$

Subtract 30.2 from both sides

$30.2 -30.2 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2$

$0 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2$

$0 = 7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2$

$7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2 = 0$

$4.9t^2 + 7.70t - 30.2 = 0$

Solve using quadratic formula:

$t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Where

$a = 4.9;\ b = 7.70;\ c = -30.2$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{7.70^2 - 4*4.9*-30.2}}{2*4.9}$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{651.21}}{9.8}$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±25.52}{9.8}$

Split the expression

$t = \frac{-7.70+25.52}{9.8}$ or $t = \frac{-7.70-25.52}{9.8}$

$t = \frac{17.82}{9.8}$ or $t = -\frac{33.22}{9.8}$

Time can't be negative; So, we have:

$t = \frac{17.82}{9.8}$

$t = 1.82$

Hence, the time to hit the ground is 1.82 seconds

An attack helicopter is equipped with a 20- mm cannon that fires 88.7 g shells in the forward direction with a muzzle speed of 9

Svetradugi [14.3K]

The impulse imparted to the shells equals the change in the momentum:
Fav*(Delta t)= Delta m*v.
The mass change is
Delta m= n*m= (89.9shells)*(88.7g)=7.97Kg
So the average force is
F=((v)*(Delta m))/t= ((929)*(7.97))/4.84=1529.78 N
Since the velocity of the shells is much greater than the velocity of the helicopter, there is no need to use relative velocity.
