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 number written in scientific notation has the form a×10k, where 1≤a&lt;10 and k is an integer, that is, k is one of ...−3,−2,−
Evgen [1.6K]

scientific notation is given as

a \times 10^k

here we know that

1 <  a < 10 and

k = whole number

now the number will be

N = 299,790,000

here we know that

N = 2.99 \times 10^8

so we have

a = 2.99

k = 8

A 55-kg woman is wearing high heels. If each heel has a circular cross-section 6.0 mm in diameter and she puts all her weight on
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the woman, m = 55 kg

diameter of the circular heel, d = 6.0 mm

radius of the heel, r = 3.0 mm = 0.003 m

Cross-sectional area of the heel is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.003)²

A = 2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ m²

The weight of the woman is given by;

W = mg

W = 55 x 9.8

W = 539 N

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is given by;

P = F / A

P = W / A

P = 539 / (2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ )

P = 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Thomson's experiments accounted for: the mass of the electron the fundamental charge the force on a current-carrying wire the el
gogolik [260]

Thomson experiment he calculated the charge to mass ratio just be passing the fundamental charge through a tube

He calculated the charge to mass ratio just by finding the deflection of charge while it is passing through the constant electric field

so here we will use the deflection as following

let say it passes the field of length "L"

so here we have

t = \frac{L}{v}

now in the same time if it deflect by some distance

\delta y = \frac{1}{2}at^2

\delta y = \frac{1}{2}{eE}{m}t^2

now by solving this equation we can find e/m ratio

so here correct answer will be

the electron's charge-to-mass ratio
