Temperature is is a measure of how rapidly or slowly molecules move.
Molecules that move slower have lower temperature, and faster moving molecules have higher temperature.
The difference in temperature results in heat, which is transfer of energy.

A 4 kW vacuum cleaner is powered by an electric motor whose efficiency is 90%. (Note that the electric motor delivers 4 W of net

RoseWind [281]

Answer: $3.6\ kW$

Explanation:

Given

Power Supplied $[tex]P_{input}=4\ kW$ [/tex]

Efficiency of the motor $\neta =90\%$

and $\neta =\dfrac{\text{Power output}}{\text{Power input}}$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=\dfrac{P_{out}}{4}$

$\Rightarrow P=0.9\times 4$

$\Rightarrow P=3.6\ kW$

So, vacuum cleaner delivers a power of $3.6\ kW$

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 580 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate a

shusha [124]

the tangent function of 2mi/5mi = 21.8 degrees
cosine of that angle = cos (21.8 degrees)
=0.928
multiply 0.928 with 570 = 570*0.928
Closing velocity = 529.23 mph
As the plane gets closer to radar station, tangent function becomes infinity and the cosine function becomes zero.....
0*570 = 0

Which of the following best describes the momentum of two bodies after a two-body collision if the kinetic energy of the system

34kurt

Answer:

Explanation:

In a two body collision where kinetic energy is conserved , this means the kinetic energy before collision is equal to the kinetic energy after collision.

when kinetic energy is conserved , momentum is also conserved.

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1 +m2v2

m1u1 +m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

The above equations are for bodies that undergoes elastic and inelastic collisions. It represents their momentum before and after collision which are equal
