Part (a):
We know that:
1 kw = 1000 watt ..........> Therefore, to convert watt into kw, we will divide by 1000
1 hour = 60 min ..........> Therefore, to convert mins into hours, we will divide by 60
Based on the above, the conversion results for the two units together would be as follows:
1 watt minute is equivalent to <span>0.000017 kilowatt hours
</span>Now, for the given , we will simply use cross multiplication to do the conversion as follows:
1 watt minute..............> 0.000017 kilowatt hours
750*15 ................> ??
750*15 watt min = 0.19125 kilowatt hour

Part (b):
From part a, we have that the consumption is 0.19125 kilowatt hour per day. Assuming that the year is 365 days, we would have:
yearly consumption = 0.19125 * 365 = 69.80625 kilowatt hour
The cost is 8 cents/kilowatt hour
Therefore:
yearly cost = 69.80625 * 8 = 558.45 cents

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

1) 0.1875 kWhr

2) $5.475

Explanation:

1) To convert 750 Watt to kWhr, firts we convert watt to kilowatt

750 W in kW = \frac{750}{1000}  = 0.75kW

To calculate the amount of power used in kWhr, we multiply the power rating (0.75 kW) by the number of time spent in hours (15 mins).

To convert 15 mins to hour,

15 mins in hr = \frac{15}{60} = 0.25hr

The kWhr used = 0.75 x 0.25 = 0.1875 kWhr

2) If used 15 mins everyday for a year, first we calculate the total amount of power used for 365 days

Daily usage at 15 mins = 0.1875 kWhr

Yearly usage = 0.1875 x 365 = 68.4375 kWhr

Cost of usage for a year at 8 cents per kWhr is;

68.4375 x 8 = 547.5 cents

Cost of usage = $5.475 per year

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0.006075Joules

Explanation:

The final kinetic energy of the system is expressed as;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v²

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two bodies

v is the final velocity of the bodies after collision

get the final velocity using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

0.12(0.45) + 0/12(0) = (0.12+0.12)v

0.054 = 0.24v

v = 0.054/0.24

v = 0.225m/s

Get the final kinetic energy;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v

KE = 1/2(0.12+0.12)(0.225)²

KE = 1/2(0.24)(0.050625)

KE = 0.12*0.050625

KE = 0.006075Joules

Hence the final kinetic energy of the system is 0.006075Joules

The electric flux through a spherical surface is 1.4 ✕ 105 N · m2/C. What is the net charge (in C) enclosed by the surface?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The  value is   Q_{net} =  1.239 *10^{-6} \  C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The electric flux is \Phi =  1.4*10^{5} \  N\cdot m^2/C

     

Generally the net charge is mathematically represented as

    Q_{net} =  \Phi *  \epsilon_o

Here \epsilon_o is the permetivity of free space with value  

       \epsilon_o =  8.85*10^{-12}  \  \  m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot  s^4 \cdot A^2

So

   Q_{net} =  1.4*10^5 *  8.85*10^{-12}

=>   Q_{net} =  1.239 *10^{-6} \  C
