Answer: (b) Approximately 32 years .

Explanation:

Moves = 2n-1 .

It takes (224-1) are the minimum number of moves required to move 24 disks, which is 16777216.

Now each move takes 1 minute, therefore total time in (mintes) = 16777216 .

Now in one year we have 525600 minutes.

Therefore time in years = 16777216/525600 = 31.920121765601217656012176560122 = 32 years (approx)

A balloon is a sphere with a radius of 5.0 m. the force of air against the walls of the balloon is 45 n. what is the air pressur
Mazyrski [523]

The air pressure inside the balloon is: 0.1432 Pa

The formulas and procedures that we will use to solve this problem are:

  • a = 4 * π * r²
  • P = F/a

Where:

  • a = area of the sphere
  • r = radius
  • π = mathematical constant
  • P = Pressure
  • F = Force
  • a = surface area

Information about the problem:

  • r = 5.0 m
  • F = 45 N
  • 1 Pa = N/m²
  • 1 N = kg * m/s²
  • a=?
  • P=?

Using the formula of the sphere area we get:

a = 4 * π * r²

a = 4 * 3.1416 * (5.0 m)²

a = 314.16 m²

Applying the pressure formula we get:

P = F/a

P = 45 N/314.16 m²

P = 0.1432 Pa

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that expresses the force applied on the area of a surface.

The driver accelerates a 330.0 kg snowmobile, which results in a force being exerted that speeds up the snowmobile from 6.00 m/s
just olya [345]

Answer:

(a) 5610 kgm/s

(b) 5610 Ns.

(c)  78. 64 N

Explanation:

a. Change in momentum: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body to its change in velocity. The S.I unit of change in momentum is kgm/s.

Mathematically, change in momentum is expressed as

ΔM = mΔv......................... Equation 1

Where ΔM = change in momentum, m = mass of snowmobile, Δv = change in velocity.

Given: m = 330 kg, Δv = v₂-v₁ = 23-6 = 17 m/s.

Note: v₁ and v₂ are the initial and the final velocity of the snowmobile.

ΔM = 330(17)

ΔM = 5610 kgm/s.

(b) Impulse: This can be defined as the product and force and time. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns.

Note: From Newton's second law of motion, impulse is equal to change in momentum.

Therefore,

I = ΔM................ Equation 2

Where I = impulse of the force.

Since ΔM = 5610 kgm/s.

Therefore

I = 5610 Ns.

Thus the impulse = 5610 Ns.

(c) Force: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

F = ma ................................. Equation 3

F = force, m = mass of the body, a = acceleration

But,

a = ( v₂-v₁)/t

Where v₂ = 23.0 m/s, v₁ = 6.0 m/s t = 60.0 s.

a = (23-6)/60

a = 0.283 m/s².

Substituting the value a and m into equation 3

F = 330(0.2383)

F = 78.639 N.

F ≈ 78. 64 N

1. In what year did India (our second most populous country) begin to produce more energy than Spain?
choli [55]

Answers:

<h2>1) Sometime in 2014 </h2>

As we can see in the graph in 2014 there is an intersection between the lines that represent the wind energy production of Spain and India, then the production of India is increased, while that of Spain remains constant.

<h2>2) Germany </h2>

As we can see in the graph in 2000 Germany was the number 1 producer of gigawatts of wind energy. In addition it is observed a rapid growth and increase in production compared to the other countries.

<h2>3) In 2006, America was producing over 10 GW and began a steep climb in wind energy production.</h2>

In 1997, America began with a constant and very small energy production, which was growing gradually until 2006, when its rapid growth in production began to exceed the other countries shown in the graph.

<h2>4) Years</h2>

When a function is plotted, generally the independent variable, whose value is previously set, is represented on the X axis.

In this sense, the variable found on the X axis of this graph is Years.

<h2>5) Wind Energy Capacity </h2>

When a function is plotted, generally the dependent variable (which is generated from the independent variable) is represented on the Y axis.

In this sense, the variable found on the Y axis of this graph is Wind Energy Capacity.

<h2>6) Gigawatts (GW) </h2>

We already know the dependent variable in this <u>Wind Energy Capacity vs Years</u> graph is Wind Energy Capacity, and its Unit is Gigawatts (GW).

Where 1GW=10^{6} W

<h2>7) Both onshore and offshore wind sources </h2>

When we talk about scientific experimentation and representing data, the Control Variable is the one that remains constant (it does not change during the investigation).  

According to the explanation above, the option that fits with this characteristic is: Both onshore and offshore wind sources

<h2>8) 55 GW </h2>

If we want to make a linear interpolation to estimate how much wind energy capacity was there in the United States in the middle of 2011, firstly we need to <u>find two points where the value we want to find is in the middle.</u>

These points (X,Y) are:

P1: (2011,48) and P2: (2012,60)

Where X1:2011, Y1:48, X2:2012, Y2:60

Now we find the <u>slope</u> m of the line with the following equation:

m=\frac{Y2 - Y1}{X2 - X1}

m=\frac{60 - 48}{2012 - 2011}=12

Then, with this value of the slope we can write the <u>equation of the line</u> and find the <u>intersection point</u> b with one of the given points (we will use P1):

Y=mX+b

48=12(2011)+b

b=-24084

With this value and the slope, we can find Y for X=2011.5 (we need to know the wind capacity in the middle of 2011):

Y=(12)(2011.5)-24084

Y=54 This is the e<u>stimated result</u> 54 GW, and the option that is near this value is 55 GW

<h2>9) 36 GW </h2>

In this case we will apply a similar method as the previous answer, but estimating a prediction:

Let's find two points near the value we want to find. These points (X,Y) are:

P1: (2014,22) and P2: (2016,29)

Where X1:2014, Y1:22, X2:2016, Y2:29

Now we find the <u>slope</u> m of the line with the following equation:

m=\frac{Y2 - Y1}{X2 - X1}

m=\frac{29 - 22}{2016 - 2014}=\frac{7}{2}

Then, with this value of the slope we can write the <u>equation of the line</u> and find the <u>intersection point</u> b with one of the given points (we will use P2):

Y=mX+b

29=\frac{7}{2}(2016)+b

b=-7027

With this value and the slope, we can find Y for X=2020 (we need to estimate the expected wind capacity in 2020):

Y=\frac{7}{2}(2020)-7027

Y=43 This is the e<u>stimated result</u> 43 GW (note linear extrapolation is not as accurate as other methods), and the option that is near this value is 36 GW

<h2>10) Additional 7 GW/Year</h2>

In this case we will use the equation of the slope:

m=\frac{Y2 - Y1}{X2 - X1}

With the following points:

P1: (2009,35) and P2: (2016,82)

m=\frac{82 - 35}{2016 - 2009}

m=6.7 \approx 7

Therefore, the correct option is Additional 35 GW/Year

M A spherical conductor has a radius of 14.0cm and a charge of 26.0σC . Calculate the electric field and the electric potential
Yuri [45]

The Electric field is E=23400 V/m.

What is electric potential ?

The amount of labor required to convey a unit of electric charge from a reference point to a given place in an electric field is known as the electric potential (also known as the electric field potential, potential drop, or the electrostatic potential). More specifically, it is the energy per unit charge for a test charge that is negligibly disruptive to the field under discussion.

The electric field of a spherical conductor is given by:

{\displaystyle E={\frac {Q}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}\,r^{2}}}

Here 'E' is the electric field and 'Q' is the electric charge.

therefore putting the values we get,

E=23400 V/m
