Answer:

Power = 15[W]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the work definition.

Work is equal to the product of the force by the distance, for this problem we have:

F = force = 30 [N]

d = distance = 30 [m]

w = work = F * d = 30*30 = 900 [J], "units in joules"

The power is defined as the work done in an interval of time.

P = w / t

where:

t = time [s]

therefore

P = w / t

P = 900 / 6

P = 150 [W] "units in watts"

dlinn [17]

Answer:

Q=977216.256\ J=977.216\ kJ

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of  steam, m=384\ g
  • temperature of steam, T_{is}=100^{\circ}C
  • temperature of resultant water, T_{fw}=31^{\circ}C

We have,

  • latent heat of vapourization of water, L=2256\ J.g^{-1}
  • specific heat capacity of water, c=4.186\ J.g^{-1}

<em>When we cool the steam of 100°C then firstly it loses its latent heat to convert into water of 100°C and the further cools the water.</em>

<u>Now the heat removed from steam to achieve the final state of water:</u>

\rm Q=latent\ heat\ of\ vapourization+sensible\ heat\ of\ water

Q=m(L+c.\Delta T)

Q=384(2256+4.186\times (100-31))

Q=977216.256\ J=977.216\ kJ

How long does it take to drive from one end of california to the other?
evablogger [386]

California is the third largest state and the only two bigger states than California are Alaska and Texas so it really depends on how you want to cross it. There are two routes to cross California depending on how you plan your visit and places you need to see. Depending on the route you take crossing California can take from twelve to almost sixteen hours of drive.

Sound waves travel fastest through a A) gas. B) liquid. C) solid. D) vacuum.
earnstyle [38]

Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids.  <em>(C)  </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.

Example:

Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s

Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s

Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
