5 0

Answer:

It takes 266 seconds to melt the ice.

Explanation:

Given data

  • Power of the microwave oven (P): 125 Watt
  • Heat supplied to the ice (Q): 33,200 Joule
  • Time for the melting (t): to be determined

In order to determine the time required to melt the ice, we can use the following expression.

P = Q/t

t = Q / P = 33,200 J/ 125 W = 266 s

It takes 266 seconds to melt the ice.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:at 21.6 min they were separated by 12 km

Explanation:

We can consider the next diagram

B2------15km/h------->Dock

|

|

B1 at 20km/h

|

|

V

So by the time B1 leaves, being B2 traveling at constant 15km/h and getting to the dock one hour later means it was at 15km from the dock, the other boat, B1 is at a distance at a given time, considering constant speed of 20km/h*t going south, where t is in hours, meanwhile from the dock the B2 is at a distance of (15km-15km/h*t), t=0, when it is 8pm.

Then we have a right triangle and the distance from boat B1 to boat B2, can be measured as the square root of (15-15*t)^2 +(20*t)^2. We are looking for a minimum, then we have to find the derivative with respect to t. This is 5*(25*t-9)/(sqrt(25*t^2-18*t+9)), this derivative is zero at t=9/25=0,36 h = 21.6 min, now to be sure it is a minimum we apply the second derivative criteria that states that if the second derivative at the given critical point is positive it means here we have a minimum, and by calculating the second derivative we find it is 720/(25 t^2 - 18 t + 9)^(3/2) that is positive at t=9/25, then we have our answer. And besides replacing the value of t we get the distance is 12 km.

Which statement describes steps involved in the production of hydroelectric power?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.

Explanation:

Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.

A bicyclist is initially traveling at 3 m/s. The bicyclist accelerates at 1 m/s2 for 5 seconds.
leonid [27]
The change in velocity is 5m/s which added to the initial 3m/s makes the final velocity 8m/s

Distance = (3*5) + (1/2*1*5^2)= 15+12.5= 27.5m
