Answer:

0.00016 kg

Explanation:  

Given:

Power = P = 1.2 × 10⁹ Watts

Power =  work done / Time

efficiency = 0.30

Input power = 1.2 × 10⁹ / 0.30 =  4  × 10⁹ W

Energy =  4  × 10⁹ x 60 x 60 = 1.44 x 10¹³ joules

E = m c² , where c is the speed of light and m is the mass.

⇒ mass = m = E / c²  = (1.44 x 10¹³) / (3 × 10⁸ )²

                                   = 0.00016 kg

Five locations are marked on the world map. which location is most prone to hurricanes? five locations are marked on the world m
Alex17521 [72]

Five locations are marked on the world map. The spot that is prone to hurricane mostly A.

<h3>What is hurricane?</h3>

A hurricane is a cyclone with winds of 74 miles (119 kilometers) each hour or more prominent that is typically joined by downpour, thunder, and lightning, and that occasionally moves into calm scopes.

The locations on the world map spot A, B, C, D, E are regions with country prone to hurricane.

The SPOT A, is GULF of Mexico, a sea bowl nearer to the Atlantic sea, encompassed with the North American landmass, the Hawaiian island is likewise inside that locale.

The SPOT B, is the southern Pacific sea with nations like BRAZIL, PERU, ECUADOR, CHILE, in that equivalent locale. This is likewise visited by the tropical storm.

The SPOT C, is inside the locales of AFRICA, nations at the edge are likewise impacted by typhoon.

The SPOT D, is Asian landmass with Russia at the edge. They are likewise inclined to typhoon.

The SPOT E, is the North Pacific sea locale situated at the upper left hand side of the world guide, with nations like Canada, Alaska and co. Near the artic circle.

Thus, location A is the most prone to hurricanes.

A bike with 15cm diameter wheels accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 7.1m/s over a distance of 35.4m. Determine the an
Finger [1]

Answer:

9.47 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Diameter = 15 cm, radius, r = diameter / 2 = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m, u = 0, v = 7.1 m/s,

s = 35.4 m

let a be the linear acceleration.

Use III equation of motion.

v^2 = u^2 + 2 a s

7.1 x 7.1 = 0 + 2 x a x 35.4

a = 0.71 m/s^2

Now the relation between linear acceleration and angular acceleration is

a = r x α

where,  α is angular acceleration

α = 0.71 / 0.075 = 9.47 rad/s^2

Why does the current splits in parallel circuit and why does the voltage remains equal?​
Xelga [282]

<u>Voltage:</u>

It is basically the difference between the charges of the materials on the ends of the Wire

<em>also known as potential difference</em>

It is very similar to the movement of air, it moves from higher density to lower density. in this case, the change in density is the potential difference

So, since voltage is the difference between the charge available on the ends of a wire. Even if the wire splits in parallel circuit, the difference of the charges remains the same

<em>the more the potential difference, the faster electrons will move to the material with lower charge</em>

<u>Current:</u>

Current is the amount of electrons moving through a cross-section of a wire in a period of time

So basically, it is the amount of electrons that move across a given point on a wire in a period of time

If the wire splits, we will have the same amount of electrons moving through as they would if the wire was not split but now, the electrons passing are divided and hence, if we measure the current after the split, we will find that we have a lower current

that's because we have less charge moving through the cross-section of the wire since some of those electrons are moving through a different wire

That's why the current splits in a parallel circuit
