Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The meteor shower is the celestial activity in which meteors are observed to radiate or originate from one point.

Meteors are nothing but dust or ice from the trails of comets. Most of the meteors are less than the size of the sand particle.

We will see comet shower when we earth will cross the orbit of the comet.

Hence, the correct answer is option A

QUESTION 23

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

E = 3600 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage, V = 115 V

Power of electric bulb, P = 60 W

We need to find the electric energy used in 1 minute. The electric energy use is given by :

$E=P\times t\\\\E=60\ W\times 60\ s\\\\E = 3600\ J$

Hence, the electrical energy is 3600 J.

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in

Kryger [21]

The average power is $3.0\cdot 10^6 W$

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

$W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where :

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the final kinetic energy of the car, with

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 60 m/s is the final speed of the car

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2$ is the initial kinetic energy of the car, with

u = 30 m/s is initial speed of the car

Soolving:

$W=\frac{1}{2}(2000)(60)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2000)(30)^2=2.7\cdot 10^6 J$

Now we can find the power required for the acceleration, which is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

t = 9 s is the time elapsed

Solving:

$P=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^6}{9}=3.0\cdot 10^6 W$
