Answer:

Total energy produced  19135.362 MJ/year

Explanation:

given details:

total energy produced = 2090 Btu per hour

1 Btu = 1.055kJ

Total energy produced per year in mega joule is = 2090*1.055 *365*24

                                                                                = 19315362 KJ/year

In mega joule per year = \frac{19315362}{1000}

mega joule per year = 19135.362 MJ/year

When calculating the power bill, power companies use _____.
Dovator [93]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. When calculating the power bill, power companies use kilowatt-hours. This unit is a derived unit of energy equal to 3.6 MJ. If energy is being transmitted or used at a constant rate (power) over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt-hours is the product of the power in kilowatts and the time.

yarga [219]
Hello! The nontoxic, nonflammable chemicals containing atoms of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine that have created a hole in the ozone layer are the Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)

These are compounds developed and improved by Thomas Midgley in the late 1920s. They were used as refrigerants and aerosol propellants.

These compounds created a hole in the ozone layer by the following reactions:

CCl₃F → CCl₂F· + Cl· (In the presence of light. Radical Reaction)
Cl· + O₃ → ClO + O₂
ClO + O₃ → Cl· + O₂ 

The last 2 reactions can repeat in a radical mechanism and explain why these compounds are so harmful to the ozone layer.

A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor that has a very small capacitance. what can we say about
Misha Larkins [42]
<span>A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor
that has a very small capacitance.

The capacitance of the series combination is slightly smaller than the
capacitance of the small capacitor. (choice-C)

The capacitance of a series combination is

             1 / (1/A + 1/B + 1/C + 1/D + .....) .

If you wisk, fold, knead, and mash that expression for a while,
you find that for only two capacitors in series, (or 2 resistors or
two inductors in parallel), the combination is   

             (product of the 2 individuals) / (sum of the individuals)  .

In this problem, we have a humongous one and a tiny one.
Let's call them  1000  and  1 .
Then the series combination is

           (1000 x 1) / (1000 + 1)

        =       (1000) / (1001)

        =         0.999 000 999 . . . 

which is smaller than the smaller individual.

It'll always be that way.   </span>

A ray of light incident in air strikes a rectangular glass block of refractive index 1.50, at an angle of incidence of 45°. Calc
balandron [24]

Answer:

Approximately 28^{\circ}.

Explanation:

The refractive index of the air n_{\text{air}} is approximately 1.00.

Let n_\text{glass} denote the refractive index of the glass block, and let \theta _{\text{glass}} denote the angle of refraction in the glass. Let \theta_\text{air} denote the angle at which the light enters the glass block from the air.

By Snell's Law:

n_{\text{glass}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) = n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}}).

Rearrange the Snell's Law equation to obtain:

\begin{aligned} \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) &= \frac{n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}})}{n_{\text{glass}}} \\ &= \frac{(1.00)\, (\sin(45^{\circ}))}{1.50} \\ &\approx 0.471\end{aligned}.

Hence:

\begin{aligned} \theta_{\text{glass}} &= \arcsin (0.471) \approx 28^{\circ}\end{aligned}.

In other words, the angle of refraction in the glass would be approximately 28^{\circ}.
