Travka [436]3 years ago
4 0
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>

In a certain city, electricity costs $0.20 per kw·h. what is the annual cost for electricity to power a lamp-post for 8.00 hours
UNO [17]

Part a)

per day electricity power consumed when 100 W bulb is used for 8 hours

P = 8 * 100 = 800 Wh

for one year consumption

E = 365 * 800 = 292 kWH

now the cost will be given

cost = 0.20 * 292 = $ 58.4

now when other energy efficient light is used

P = 8 * 25 = 200 Wh

for one year consumption

E = 365 * 200 = 73 kWH

now the cost will be given

cost = 0.20 * 73 = $ 14.6

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 21.8 m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 101 m from the base
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

t=2.10 s

u= 47.40 m/s

Explanation:

given that

h= 21.8 m

x= 101 m

g=9.8 m/s²

Lets take horizontal speed of  ball = u m/s

The vertical speed of the car at initial condition is zero ( v= 0).

We know that

h=vt+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

v= 0 m/s

h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

now by putting the values

21.8 = 1/2 x 9.8 x t²

t=2.10 s

This is time when ball was in motion.

Now in horizontal direction

x = u .t

101 = u x 2.1

u= 47.40 m/s

It would take more energy to reheat 12 cups because only 1 or 2 cups can fit in a microwave rather an than brewing 12 cups in a coffee pot.
