Answer:

22.2 m/s

Explanation:

First, we need to convert km to m by multiplying by 1000. This means that the car traveled 320 000 meters.

Next, we convert hours to minutes by multiplying by 3600 (the number of seconds in an hour). This means that overall, the car traveled 320 000 m in 14 400 seconds.

The average speed can be found by using the equation $\frac{distance}{time}$ . After substitution, this gives the fraction $\frac{320 000}{14 400}$ , which reduces to 22 $\frac{2}{9}$ m/s, or about 22.2 m/s.

You push very hard on a heavy desk, trying to move it. You do work on the desk:

frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that work done is given by

$W=F.d=Fdcos\Theta$

So there are two case in which work done is zero

First case is that when force and displacement are perpendicular to each other

And other case is that when there is no displacement

So for work to be done there must have displacement, if there is no displacement then there is no work done

So option (c) will be the correct option

a lamp or bulb is marked 12 volt 240 Watts how many joules does it consume in one hour and what is the current that passes throu

valkas [14]

Answer:

1 watt is 1 Joule per second. 240 watt would then be 240 joules per second. How many seconds are there in an hour? Current formula is P= IV , P is 240(not the power in an hour because the current is calculated in seconds), and V is 12V. Then you will get I, the current.
