200 MBtu of heat

Explanation:

As provided in the question, heat supplying natural gas furnace operates at 60% efficiency. It means that out of 100 units of heat energy produced by the furnace, only 60 units of heat can be transferred.

Thereby as the demand of the heat energy is 120 MBtu, amount of gas that needs to be purchased equals-

∴ 60% of (cubic metres of gas that needs to be purchased) = 120 MBtu

⇒ (60/100) * gas = 120

⇒ Gas= 120*100/60

∴ Cubic metres of gas that needs to be purchased= 200MBtu

A. A child is twirling a 1.52 kg object in a vertical circle with a radius of 67.6
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

(a) 4.21 m/s

(b) 24.9 N

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the object when it is at the bottom of the circle.  There are two forces on the object: tension force T pulling up and weight force mg pulling down.

Sum the forces in the radial (+y) direction:

∑F = ma

T − mg = m v² / r

v = √(r (T − mg) / m)

v = √(0.676 m (54.7 N − 1.52 kg × 9.8 m/s²) / 1.52 kg)

v = 4.21 m/s

(b) Draw a free body diagram of the object when it is at the top of the circle.  There are two forces on the object: tension force T pulling down and weight force mg pulling down.

Sum the forces in the radial (-y) direction:

∑F = ma

T + mg = m v² / r

T = m v² / r − mg

T = (1.52 kg) (4.21 m/s)² / (0.676 m) −  (1.52 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

T = 24.9 N

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

<h3>= 500nm</h3>

1 \:  angstrom = 1 \times  {10}^{ - 10} m

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

<h3>= 5 × 10^-7 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why are the trends for electronegativity and ionization energy similar
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionization Energy Trends

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom in its gaseous phase. Conceptually, ionization energy is the opposite of electronegativity. ... As a result, it is easier for valence shell electrons to ionize, and thus the ionization energy decreases down a group
