Answer:

During a recent congressional hearing, Rick Perry, the US energy secretary, remarked that “to stand up and say that 100% of global warming is because of human activity, I think on its face, is just indefensible”.

An old light bulb draws only 54.3 W, rather than its original 60.0 W, due to evaporative thinning of its filament. By what facto

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of old light bulb = 54.3 W

Power = 60 W

We know that,

The resistance is inversely proportional to the diameter.

$R\propto\dfrac{1}{D}$

The power is inversely proportional to the resistance.

$P\propto\dfrac{1}{R}$

$P\propto D^2$

We need to calculate the factor of the diameter of the filament reduced

Using relation of power and diameter

$\dfrac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}=\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}=\dfrac{54.3}{60}$

$\dfrac{D_{i}}{D_{f}}=0.95$

$D_{i}=0.95 D_{f}$

Hence, The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

The engine in an imaginary sports car can provide constant power to the wheels over a range of speeds from 0 to 70 miles per hou

puteri [66]

Answer:

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

Explanation:

Given:

Range of speed during which constant power is supplied to the wheels by the car is $0\ mph\ to\ 70\ mph$ .

Initial velocity of the car, $v_i=0\ mph$

final velocity of the car during the test, $v_f=32\ mph=14.3052\ m.s^{-1}$

Time taken to accelerate form zero to 32 mph at full power, $t=1.2\ s$

initial velocity of the car, $u_i=0\ mph$

final desired velocity of the car, $u_f=64\ mph=28.6105\ m.s^{-1}$

Now the acceleration of the car:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

$a=\frac{14.3052-0}{1.2}$

$a=11.921\ m.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation of motion:

$u_f=u_i+a.t$

$64=0+11.921\times t$

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.
