The energy prdoduced by the 24 bulbs is 46,080 J

Explanation:

Power is defined as the ratio between the energy produced and the time taken:

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

where

E is the energy

t is the time

In this problem, the power of each bulb is

P = 32 W

Therefore, in a time of

t = 1 min = 60 s

The energy produced by each bulb is

$E=Pt=(32)(60)=1920 J$

Here we have 24 bulbs, so the total energy produced is

$E=24(1920)=46,080 J$

A metal rod of length 2.0 m is moved at 6.0 m/s in a direction perpendicular to its length. A 5.0 mT magnetic field is perpendic

Lerok [7]

Answer:

<h2>The potential difference is 60mV</h2>

Explanation:

This problem bothers on application of the expression for motion emf which is expressed as

$E= Blv$

where B= magnetic field in Tesla

l= length of the conductor

v= speed of conductor

Given data

l= 2 meters

v= 6 m/s

B= 5 Tesla

Applying the formula we have

$E=5*2*6= 60mV$

Estimate the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Europa (one of the moons of Jupiter) given that its mass is 4.9×1022k

Taya2010 [7]

Answer: $g=1.97 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

mass of Jupiter is $M=4.9\times 10^{22} kg$

Density of Jupiter is same as Earth

$density\ of\ Earth=density\ of\ Jupiter=5510 kg/m^3$

$mass=volume\times density$

considering Jupiter to be sphere of radius r

$M=\frac{4}{3}\times \pi r^3\times \rho$

$r^3=\frac{3M}{\rho \times 4\pi}$

$r^3=\frac{3\times 4.9\times 10^{22}}{5510\times 4\pi}$

$r=(\frac{3\times 4.9\times 10^{22}}{5510\times 4\pi})^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$r=1.28\times 10^6 m$

acceleration due to gravity is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$

$g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 4.9\times 10^{22}}{(1.28\times 10^6)^2}$

$g=1.97 m/s^2$

Near the poles, more energy is reflected back into space than is absorbed. near the poles, more energy is reflected back into sp

VladimirAG [237]

Correct answer: a) True.

In fact, the soil at the poles consists mainly of snow. Snow has an albedo of 90%: albedo is the fraction of light (and so, of energy) that is reflected back to the space. This means that at the poles, about 90% of the light is reflected back to the space, while only 10% is absorbed.

What would heat up faster and why? Water , wet sand , dry sand , or would it be no difference??

salantis [7]

In short, I’d say the answer is Dry Sand.

In solids, the intermolecular force of attraction is very high. Whereas, in liquids the intermolecular force of attraction is somewhat less than solids. ... so when you heat, less amount of heat can free the molecules in liquids than solids and hence they heat faster.

Reika [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant decreases from A+B to A-B

Explanation:

The magnitude of the resultant of two vectors is given by

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2 +2AB cos \theta}$

where

A is the magnitude of the first vector

B is the magnitude of the second vector

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of the two vectors

In the formula, A and B are constant, so the behaviour depends only on the function $cos \theta$ . The value of $cos \theta$ are:

- 1 (maximum) when the angle is 0, so the magnitude of the resultant in this case is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2+2AB}=\sqrt{(A+B)^2}=A+B$

- then it decreases, until it becomes 0 when the angle is 90 degrees, where the magnitude of the resultant is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2+0}=\sqrt{A^2+B^2}$

- then it becomes negative, and continues to decrease, until it reaches a value of -1 when the angle is 180 degrees, and the magnitude of the resultant is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2-2AB}=\sqrt{(A-B)^2}=A-B$
