Answer: a) 4.32 MJ ; b)  0.32%

Explanation: In order to solve this question we have to consider that power consume to full charge the battery is I*V

so we have 100 A-hours* 12 V = 1200 W*hours ( J*hour/s)

To convert to Joules

we have to multiply by 3600 ( seconds per hour) the Total energy stored in  the battery is:

E= 1200 J/s* 3600 s= 4.32 MJ

To compare with the energy of 9 gallon petrol tank  ( 1350 MJ)

%= E electric/ Epetrol= (4.32 MJ/(1350 MJ))*100%=0.32 %

A ball with a mass of 3.1 kg is moving in a uniform circular motion upon a horizontal surface. The ball is attached at the cente
inessss [21]

Answer:

3.46 seconds

Explanation:

Since the ball is moving in circular motion thus centripetal force will be acting there along the rope.

The equation for the centripetal force is as follows -

F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Where, m is the mass of the ball, v is the speed and r is the radius of the circular path which will be equal to the length of the rope.

This centripetal force will be equal to the tension in the string and thus we can write,

20.4 = \frac{3.1\times v^2}{2}

and, v^2 = 13.16

Thus, v = 3.63 m/s.

Now, the total length of circular path = circumference of the circle

Thus, total path length = 2πr = 2 × 3.14 × 2 = 12.56 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = \frac{\text {Path length} }{\text {Speed}} = \frac{12.56}{3.63} = 3.46 seconds.

Thus, the mass will complete one revolution in 3.46 seconds.

The maximum wavelength that an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject electrons from a metal surface is 459 nm. What is t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

2.7067 eV

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda_0 = Threshold wavelength = 459 nm

Work function is given by

W_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda_0}\\\Rightarrow W_0=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{459\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow W_0=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J

Converting to eV

1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV

4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV=2.7067\ eV

The work function W0 of this metal is 2.7067 eV

A car turns a certain curve of radius 24.98 m with constant linear speed of
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

3525.19 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of the car is shown below:

As we know that

Fc = m × V^2 ÷ R

m = Fc × R ÷ V^2

Provided that:

Fc = 34.652 kN = 34652 N

R = Radius = 24.98 m

V = speed = 15.67 m/s

So,

m = 34652 × 24.98 ÷ 15.67^2

 = 3525.19 kg
