The work done is 2.8125 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{J}

Work Done = Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE)

<u>Explanation</u>

In first 1 hour it travels 72 km

So, Velocity = \frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}=\frac{72}{1} k m / h=72 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}=\frac{72000}{3600} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}=20 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

or, Initial Velocity (u) = 20 m/s

Similarly for the next hour it covers 90 km

So, Velocity = \frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}=\frac{90}{1} k m / h=90 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}=\frac{90000}{3600} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}=25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

or, Final Velocity (v) = 20 m/s

Work done = Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE)

Work done = ΔKE = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}-\frac{1}{2} m u^{2}

ΔKE = \frac{1}{2} m\left(v^{2}-u^{2}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \times\left(2.5 \times 10^{3}\right) \times\left(25^{2}-20^{2}\right)

= \frac{2500 \times(625-400)}{2}=\frac{2500 \times 225}{2}=\frac{562500}{2}= 281250 joule  

= 2.8125 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{J}

Twice each each lunar month, all year long, these tides occur. Whenever the Moon, Earth and Sun are aligned, the gravitational p
Zarrin [17]

That was a lucky pick.

Twice each each lunar month, all year long, whenever the Moon,
Earth and Sun are aligned, the gravitational pull of the sun adds
to that of the moon causing maximum tides.

This is the setup at both New Moon and Full Moon.  It doesn't matter
whether the Sun and Moon are both on the same side of the Earth,
or one on each side.  As long as all three bodies are lined up, we
get the biggest tides.

These are called "spring tides", when there is the greatest difference
between high and low tide.

At First Quarter and Third Quarter, when the sun, Earth, and Moon form a
right angle, there is the least difference between high and low tide.  Then
they're called "neap tides".

A light bulb operating at a voltage of 120 v has a resistance of 200 ω. what is the power?
cluponka [151]

The correct is 72 watt

We know that formula of power is P=\frac{v^{2} }{r}

so putting the value of Voltage and Resistance in Formula of power so we get

P=\frac{120^{2} }{200} =72

What is Power?

Electric power is the rate at which an electric circuit transfers electrical energy per unit time.

Typically, electricity is generated by generators, but it can also be supplied by sources such as electric batteries. The electric power industry typically distributes it via an electric power grid to businesses and homes (as domestic mains electricity).

Transmission lines allow electric power to be delivered over long distances and used for high-efficiency applications such as motion, light, or heat.  Electric charges are converted to other forms of energy when they pass through an electric potential difference (voltage).

A bullet with mass m = 5.21 g is moving horizontally with a speed v = 443 m/s when it strikes a block of hardened steel with mas
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

0.312 m/s

Explanation:

Elastic collisions conserve momentum and kinetic energy

The velocity of the center of mass will not change. It continues at

0.00521(443) / 14.80521 = 0.155893... ≈ 0.156 m/s

To conserve kinetic energy we can think of the center of mass (CoM) as an ideal spring returning to each mass that strikes it an identical speed of collision in the opposite direction.

The CoM sees the target approach at - 0.156 and will see it depart at 0.156 m/s

A ground based observer sees the target depart at the velocity of the CoM plus the relative velocity .

v = 0.156 + 0.156  = 0.312 m/s
