Answer: acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b. Given that the radius are thesame.

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is as a result of the gravitational force of attraction of a planet to its centre.

g = GM/r^2

Where;

g = acceleration due to gravity

G = gravitational constant

M = mass of planet

r = radius of planet

Given that the two planet have the same radius, if the mass of planet a is twice the mass of planet b the the acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b, because acceleration due to gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the planet.

Suppose the price of electricity is 12.75 cents per kWºh. What
adell [148]

Answer:

The difference between the cost of operating LED and incandescent bulb is $5.1

Explanation:

We are given the cost of electricity that is 12.75 cents per kWh. We want to find out the difference in the operating cost of an incandescent and LED bulb for a time period of 2,000 hours.

Since we are not given the rating of the incandescent bulb and LED bulb, we will assume their ratings.

For a light intensity of 250 Lumens;

The average rating of an LED bulb is approximately 5 Watts.

The average rating of an incandescent bulb is approximately 25 Watts.

Now lets find out the kWh of each bulb.

Energy = Power×Time

For LED bulb:

E = 5×2,000 = 10,000 Wh

Divide by 1000 to convert into kWh

E = 10,000/1000 = 10 kWh

Cost = 12.75×10 = 127.5 cents

Cost = $1.27

For Incandescent bulb:

E = 25×2,000 = 50,000 Wh

Divide by 1000 to convert into kWh

E = 50,000/1000 = 50 kWh

Cost = 12.75×50 = 637.5 cents

Cost = $6.37

Difference in Cost:

Difference = $6.37 - $1.27 = $5.1

Therefore, the difference between the cost of operating LED and incandescent bulb is $5.1.
