Answer:

(E) none of these.

Explanation:

first that all we need the meaning of a Watt

<em>" is a unit of power. In the International System of Units (SI) it is defined as a derived unit of 1 </em><em>joule</em><em> per </em><em>second</em><em>,[1] and is used to quantify the rate of </em><em>energy</em><em> transfer."  </em>

<em>definition taken from wikipedia.org</em>

now with this concept we have that:

100 W means 100 J/s .Therefore it uses 100 J energy per second

therefore on the answers don't mention this three terms together

Joules, energy and second so the answer must be.

(E) None of these

A car initially traveling at 17.1 mph comes to rest in 9.7s what was its acceleration in this time?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

a=-.78m/s^2

Explanation:

Δv=at

  • Δv is the difference in velocity before and after a given time.
  • a is the acceleration of the object during this time.
  • t is time

(v_f-v_i)=at is another way to write this equation.

  • The Δ symbol represents "the difference between the initial and final values of a magnitude or vector", so Δv=(v_f-v_i)

v_f-v_i=at\\\frac{at}{t}=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}\\a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

  • I rearranged this equation to solve for a, but this is a step that you don't need to take, it's just good to get in the habit of doing this.
  • Plug in the given values. Note that our final velocity is 0, because the car travels until at <em>rest</em>.

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}\\a=\frac{(0)-[(17.1\frac{miles}{hour} )(\frac{hour}{3600s})(\frac{1609.34m}{mile})]}{9.7s}

  • Our initial velocity is in mph, something not in standard units, so if not changed, you will get an incorrect answer. What you need to do is cancel out the units your prior value had using division and multiplication, and at the same time multiply and divide the correct numbers and units into your equation. Or look up a converter.

a=\frac{(0)-[(17.1\frac{miles}{hour} )(\frac{hour}{3600s})(\frac{1609.34m}{mile})]}{9.7s}\\a=\frac{0m/s-7.6m/s}{9.7s} \\a=\frac{-7.6m/s}{9.7s}

  • if you converted correctly, your answer for v_f will be ≅ 7.6m/s.
  • Now divide. Notice that the units for acceleration are m/s^2 or <em>meters per second, per second</em>.

a=\frac{-7.6m/s}{9.7s}\\a=-.78m/s^2

  • Our final answer is <em>negative </em>because the car is <em>slowing down</em>. Do not square this answer as the square symbol only applies to the units, not the magnitude.

A jet travels at 489 meters per second how long does it take to travel 235 m? answer in seconds
Sladkaya [172]

if in 1 second the jet goes 428 meters and you want to know how long it takes to go 237 meters you just divide 237/428  

it can be written like this  

_1_ = __x__  

428 237  

cross multiply  

428 times x = 1 times 237  

428x=237  

divide by 428 on both sides  

x= 237/428  

x=0.5537 seconds
