Spidermans nemesis electro delivers 4kj of electrical energy in half a second how much power does it draw from the mains?

Physics

Answer:

8 KW

Explanation:

Energy = 4 k J = 4000 J

t = 0.5 second

Power is defined as the rate of doing work.

Power = energy / time = 4000 / 0.5 = 8000 W = 8 KW

Power delivered = (energy delivered) / (time to deliver the energy)

Power delivered = (4,000 J) / (0.5 sec)

Power delivered = 8,000 watts

I'm a little surprised to learn that Electro draws his power from the mains.  This is VERY good news for Spiderman !  It means that Spiderman can always avoid tangling with Electro ... all he has to do is stay farther away from Electro than the length of Electro's extension cord.

But OK.  Let's assume that Electro draws it all from the mains.  Then inevitably, there must be some loss in Electro's conversion process, between the outlet and his fingertips (or wherever he shoots his bolts from).

The efficiency of Electro's internal process is

<em>(power he shoots out) / (power he draws from the mains) </em>.

So, if he delivers energy toward his target at the rate of 8,000 watts, he must draw power from the mains at the rate of

<em>(8,000 watts) / (his internal efficiency) .  </em>

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be obser
Alona [7]

Answer:

<h2><em>6000 counts per second</em></h2>

Explanation:

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1

In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;

x count per second = 3 meter ... 2

Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter

x counts per second = 3 meter

Cross multiply to get x

2000 * 3 = 1* x

6000 = x

<em></em>

<em>This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample</em>

A proton is going 2,000 m/s into a magnetic field of 300 T. How much force does it feel. The charge of a proton = 1.602 x 10^-19
NemiM [27]
This depends on the direction of the velocity vector to the magnetic field vector. The force is F=q(VxB)  ("x" is the cross product.)  The max force is when V and B are perpendicular.  Then F=qVB = (1.602e-19)(2000)(300) = 9.612e-14 N

Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, so that objects on its surface execute uniform circular motion about the axis wit
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

v=1667.9km/h

a_{cp}=436.6km/h^2

Explanation:

The speed is the distance traveled divided by the time taken. The distance traveled in 24hs while standing on the equator is the circumference of the Earth C=2\pi R, where R=6371km is the radius of the Earth.

We have then:

v=\frac{C}{t}=\frac{2\pi R}{t}=\frac{2\pi (6371km)}{(24h)}=1667.9km/h

And then we use the centripetal acceleration formula:

a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{R}=\frac{(1667.9km/h)^2}{(6371km)}=436.6km/h^2

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy
trapecia [35]
The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.
