The correct option is D.
The model developed by Ptolemy has a lot of inconsistency and during the middle age additional explanation was offered for the claims made by the model. The model was very complicated because it was based on erroneous assumptions.
Copernicus model was simpler and some of his claims were correct.<span />
Answer:
Explanation:
Power is related to energy by the following relationship:
where
P is the power used
E is the energy used
t is the time elapsed
In this problem, we know that
- the power of the fan is P = 120 W
- the fan has been running for one hour, which corresponds to a time of
So we can re-arrange the previous equation to find E, the energy (in the form of thermal energy) released by the fan:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
If a pulley system has an efficiency of 74.2%, then only that fraction of the work performed will be useful. 74.2%=0.742. 0.742*200 is about 148J. Hope this helps!
True or false: while riding a bicycle up a gentle hill, it fairly easy to increase your potential energy, but to increase your kinetic energy would ...
Answer:
Usually the coefficient of friction remains unchanged
Explanation:
The coefficient of friction should in the majority of cases, remain constant no matter what your normal force is. When you apply a greater normal force, the frictional force increases, and your coefficient of friction stays the same. Here's another way to think about it: because the force of friction is equal to the normal force times the coefficient of friction, friction is increased when normal force is increased.
Plus, the coefficient of friction is a property of the materials being "rubbed", and this property usually does not depend on the normal force.
