kvasek [131]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:  

15W is the power used by the lion to take cub up a tree.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the given question it is said that the total work done by the lion is 150 joules and the required time is 10 seconds. According to mathematical formula of power, Power =\frac{\text {work done}}{\text {time}}  substitute the given terms in the formula = \frac{150}{10} =15 = 15W (Watt is the SI unit of power. Watt is said as one joule per second). The power used by a lion to safe her cub is 15W.

A 1.2 nf parallel-plate capacitor has an air gap between its plates. Its capacitance increases by 3.0 nf when the gap is filled
Damm [24]

Answer:

2.5

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor filled with dielectric is given by

C=kC_0

where

k is the dielectric constant

C_0 is the capacitance of the capacitor without dielectric

In this problem,

C_0=1.2 nF is the capacitance of the capacitor in air

C=3.0 nF is the capacitance with the dielectric inserted

Solving the equation for k, we find

k=\frac{C}{C_0}=\frac{3.0 nF}{1.2 nF}=2.5

Which of these is an example of the meaning of inertia in physics
Vladimir79 [104]
The correct option is A.
In physics, inertia has to do with Newton's first law of motion which states that an object will continue in its state of rest or in motion unless it is acted upon by a force. Thus, inertia refers to the tendency of an object to continue its motion in a straight line at constant velocity. In the question given above, the car that its brake failed would have continue moving indefinitely if it did not crash into another car, that is, it will continue in its state of motion.

What is the formula for calculating mechanical power​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Because work can be defined as force time distance, we can also use the following equation

Solution

P=power (w or ft-lbf/s)

F=force (N or lbf)

D=distance (m or ft)

T=time (sec)

One horsepower is equivalent to 550 ft-lbf/s and 745.7 watts.

The Keck Observatory is home to the largest Earth-based twin telescopes. The telescopes are located away from city lights, above
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The options for the question are

a) How do galaxies rotate?

b) What is the weather on Neptune?

c) What is the core of Saturn made of?

d) What other solar systems have planets?

Solution

The Hubble space telescope was designed and integrated into the extraterrestrial system in order to capture information about the surrounding universe. If the  Keck Observatory has a better observation capacity than the Hubble space telescope then the scientist would be interested to know the surrounding planets in the solar system.

Hence, option D is correct
