kicyunya [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(a)0.0002778

(b)1.16\times10^{-5}

Explanation:

(a) The minute hand has a period of 60 minutes ( or 60 * 60 = 3600 seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 3600 = 0.0002778

(b) The hour hand has a period of 24 hours ( or 24*60 * 60 = 86400

seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 86400 = 1.16\times10^{-5}

The mass of the Moon is 7.35 x 1022 kg, while that of Earth is 5.98 x 1024 kg. The average distance from the center of the Moon
Kryger [21]

Answer:

aaa

Explanation:

m_e = Mass of the Earth =  5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r_1 = Distance from the center of the Moon to the center of Earth = 6371000 m

r_2 = Distance from the center of the earth center to sun center

m_m = Mass of moon = 7.35\times 10^{22}\ kg

M = Mass of sun = 1.989\times 10^{30}\ kg

F_1=G\frac{m_em_m}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{5.98\times 10^{24}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{(384000000)^2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=1.988\times 10^{20}\ N

F_2=G\frac{Mm_e}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{5.98\times 10^{24}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{(149.6\times 10^9+6371000+695.51\times 10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=3.511\times 10^{22} N

\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{1.988\times 10^{20}}{3.511\times 10^{22}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{F_2}=0.00566\\\Rightarrow F_1=F_20.00566

Hence the force of moon on earth is 0.00566 times the force of earth on moon center to center

A 3-kW resistance heater in a water heater runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. Determine the a
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Energy, 9 kWh or 32400 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The power of heater, P = 3 kW

It runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. We need to find the amount of electric energy used. We know that the electrical power of an object is given by total energy delivered per unit time. It is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

E=P\times t

E=3\ kW\times 3\ h

E = 9 kWh

Since, 1 kWh = 3600 kJ

E = 32400 kJ

So, the amount of electric energy used is 9 kWh or 32400 kJ. Hence, this is the required solution.

Air conditioners are rated by their coefficient of performance at 61 ∘ F inside temperature and 99 ∘ F outside temperature. An e
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

the maximum possible coefficient performance is 13.7

Explanation:

inside temperature, T_{C} = 61 F = 289.26 K

outside temperature, T_{H} = 99 F = 310.37 K

coefficient of performance, COP (real) = 3.2

according to Carnot's theorem, the coefficient of performance is

COP_{max} = \frac{T_{C} }{T_{H}-x_{C}  }

where

T_{C} is cold temperature

T_{H} is hot temperature

thus,

COP_{max}  = \frac{289.26}{310.37-289.26}

             = 13.7
