Explanation: the complete question should be

The clothes washer in your house consumes 470 kWh of energy per year. Price of the washer is $360 and the lifetime of the washer is 10 yrs. Energy price in your city is 9 cents per kWh. What is the lifecycle cost of the clothes washer? (assume a maintenance cost of $11 per year)

SOLUTION

Given:

The clothes washe power consumption (PC) is 470 kWh

Price of the washer (P) is $360

lifetime of the washer (L) is 10 yrs

Energy price in the city (E) is 9 cents per kWh (Covert to $ by dividing 100)

maintenance cost (M) is $11 per year

Lifecycle cost = P + (PC × L × E) +M + L

Lifecycle cost = $360 + (470kWh × 10years × 9cents/100) + ($11 × 10years)

=$893

What happens when a resultant electric field exist in conductor​
klio [65]

Answer:

When an electric field exists in a conductor a current will flow.

This implies a voltage difference between two points on the conductor.

Electrostatics pertains to static charge distributions.

That means that an object such as a charged spherical conductor will be at the same potential (voltage) on both its outer and inner surfaces.

A car is accelerated from 40 m/s to 48 m/s in 6.5 seconds. What is the magnitude of the car’s
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

AVerage acceleration is the cjange in velocity with time

a = v-u/t

v is the final velocity = 48m/s

u is the initial velocity = 40m/s

t is the time = 6.5s

a = 48-40/6.5

a = 8/6.5

a = 1.23m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the car’s  average acceleration during this period is 1.23m/s²

In a thin film experiment, a wedge of air is used between two glass plates. If the wavelength of the incident light in air is 48
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The thickness is  \Delta y =  2.4 *10^{-6} \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The wavelength is  \lambda  = 480 \ nm = 480*10^{-9} \  m

    The first order of the dark  fringe is  m_1 =  16

     The second order of dark fringe considered is  m_2 = 6

Generally the condition for destructive interference is mathematically represented as

        y = \frac{m \lambda}{2}

Here y is the path difference between the central maxima(i.e the origin) and any dark fringe

So  the path difference between the 16th dark fringe and the 6th dark fringe is mathematically represented as

      y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y =  \frac{m_1 \lambda}{2} -  \frac{m_2 \lambda}{2}

=>  y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y =  \frac{16 *480*10^{-9}}{2} -  \frac{6 *480*10^{-9}}{2}

=>  y_1 - y_2 = \Delta y =  5 (480*10^{-9})

=>  \Delta y =  2.4 *10^{-6} \  m

PLEASE ANSWER FAST In which of the following situations is the greatest amount of work accomplished? 1. A boy lifts a 2-newton b
GuDViN [60]

Explanation:

Work done is given by the product of force and displacement.

Case 1,

1. A boy lifts a 2-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 2 N × 0.8 m = 1.6 J

2. A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 5 N × 0.8 m = 4 J

3. A boy lifts a 8-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 8 N × 0.2 m = 1.6 J

4. A boy lifts a 10-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 10 N × 0.2 m = 2 J

Out of the four options, in option (2) ''A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters'', the work done is 4 J. Hence, the greatest work done is 4 J.
