How much energy is used when a 110kw appliance is used for 3 hours

We could take the easy way out and just say

(110 kW) x (3 hours) = 330 kilowatt hours .

But that's cheap, and hardly worth even 5 points.
If we want to talk energy, let's use the actual scientific unit of energy.
________________________________________________

" 110 kw " means 110,000 watts = 110,000 joules/second .

(3 hours) x (3600 sec/hour) = 10,800 seconds.

(110,000 joules/second) x (10,800 seconds) = 1.188 x 10⁹ Joules

 That's

==>  1,188,000,000 joules

==>  1,188,000 kilojoules

==>  1,188 megajoules

==>  1.188 gigajoules

Atsa nawfulotta energy ! 
It goes back to that "110 kw appliance" that we started with. 
That's no common ordinary household appliance.  110 kw is something like
147 horsepower.  In order to bring 110 kw into your house, you'd need to
take 458 Amperes through the 240-volt line from the pole.  Most houses
are limited to 100 or 200 Amperes, tops.  And the TRANSFORMER on
the pole, that supplies the whole neighborhood, is probably a 50 kw unit.

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2 toward the north. A second car starts from rest 4.0 s later at the
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

the correct solution is 13 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematic problem, let's use accelerated rectilinear motion relationships.

For the first car it has an accelerometer of 2.0 m/s²

       x = v₀₁ t + ½ a₁ t²

The second car leaves the same point, but 4.0 seconds later

       x = v₀₂ (t-4) + ½ a₂ (t-4)²

With this form we use the same time for both cars.

The initial speeds are zero for both vehicles leave the rest, at the point where they are located has the same position

        x = ½ a₁ t²

        x = ½ a₂ (t-4)²

Let's solve

       a₁  t² = a₂ (t-4)²

      a₁/a₂ t² = t² -2 4 t + 16

      t² (1- 2.0 / 4.0) - 8 t +16

      t² 0.5 - 8 t +16 = 0

      t² -16 t + 32 = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

     t = [16 ±√( 16² - 4 32)] / 2  

     t = ½ (16 ± 11,3)

Solutions

     t1 = 13.66 s

     t2 = 2.34 s

These are the mathematical solutions for the meeting point, but car 2 leaves after 4 seconds, so the only solution is 13.66 s

the correct solution is 13 s, if you have to select one the nearest 12s

Stomach acid is a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl). In this case the word dilute means
vfiekz [6]
I think the correct answer would be that there are a relatively small number of moles of HCl present. Dilute would mean that there are very few solute particles dissolved as compared to the solvent particles in the solution. Hope this helps.
