Answer:

<em>Electrical power</em>

Explanation:

<em>Electrical power:</em> Electric power (P) is defined as the energy (W) used or produced or transformed per seconds.

Power = Energy produced/transformed/time taken.

P = W/t................................ Equation 1

Where t = time taken

But,

W = VIt................................ Equation 2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1

P = VIt/t

P = VI............................ Equation 3

or

P = V²/R or P = I²R.

The unit of power is J/s or Volt-ampere is called watt (W).

Large amount of electric power are required in the industry

1 kW = 1000 W

1 MW = 1000000 W

1 h.p = 3/4 kW.

In each cycle, a heat engine performs 710 J of work and exhausts 1480 J of heat. What is the thermal efficiency?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

D) 0.32

Explanation:

The computation of the thermal efficiency is given below:

Thermal efficiency is

= 710 J ÷ (710 J + 1480 J)

= 710 J ÷ 2,190 J

= 0.32

Hence, the thermal efficiency is 0.32

Therefore the last option is correct

Planet X is in a stable circular orbit around a star, as shown in the figure. Which of the following graphs best predicts the an
damaskus [11]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Angular momentum is the product of moment of inertia and angular velocity.

L = I × ω

Since the planet follows a stable circular orbit, I and ω are constant and non-zero.  Therefore, the angular momentum is constant and non-zero.

A quantum-mechanical system initially in its ground level absorbs a photon and ends up in the first excited state. The system th
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

(b) a hydrogen atom

Explanation:

Wavelength is inversely proportional to energy. So we have to find the system for which the second photon has smaller energy than the first one.

For the harmonic oscillator, the energy level spacing remains the same as the quantum number increases.

For the hydrogen atom, the energy level spacing decreases as the quantum number increases.

For the particle in a box, the energy level spacing increases as the quantum number increases.

An object moves from point A to B to C to D and finally to A
Nataly [62]

here's the solution,

The <em>radius</em> of the circle =<u> 3 km</u>

distance covered = <em>circumference</em> of the circle,

So, Circumference :

=》

2\pi r

=》

2 \times 3.14 \times 3

=》

18.84

(a). Distance covered by moving object is 18.84 km

(b). 0 km

now, Displacement of the object is 0 km, because displacement is the shortest distance from stating point to the destination, but the object returns back to the starting point, hence magnitude of displacement is 0.

Average velocity is different than average speed because calculating average velocity involves what?
Dominik [7]
Two things that aren't involved in speed: -- the straight-line distance between the start- and end- points. -- the direction from start-point to end-point.
