Suppose Joe, who can type 40 words per minute, takes 2.5 hours to type his report. To speed things up, his friend Mark offers to

help him. Mark can type 20 words per minute.Working together, how long will it take Joe and Mark to type this report?

Explanation:

When Joe works alone, the total number  of words he typed can be given by:

Total words = (40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hour) x (2.5 hours)

Total words = 6000 words

Now, when Joe and Mark work together, let 'y' be the number of hours for which they both work simultaneously:

Total words = Words Typed by Joe + Words Typed by Mark

6000 = {(40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)} + {(20 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)}

6000 = 2400y + 1200y = 3600y

y = 1.67 hours = 1 hour and 40 minutes

Thus, working together simultaneously, Joe and Mark will take 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete the report.

We move a square loop of wire 2.3 cm on a side into a region of uniform magnetic field of 1.5 T with the plane of the loop perpe
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Force will be F=8.33\times 10^{-4}N

Explanation:

We have given side of wire d = 2.3 cm = 0.023 m

Magnetic field B = 1.5 T

Velocity v = 2.1 m/sec

Resistance R = 3 ohm

We know that current is given by i=\frac{Bvd}{R}=\frac{1.5\times 2.1\times 0.023}{3}=0.02415A

Power is given by P=i^2R=0.02415^2\times 3=0.00174watt

We know that power is also given by P=Fv

So 0.00174=F\times 2.1

F=8.33\times 10^{-4}N

(b) During one day, 250 kg of water is pumped through
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: The energy incident on the solar panel during that day is 9.24 \times 10^{7} J.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 250 kg

Initial temperature = 16^{o}C

Final temperature = 38^{o}C

Specific heat capacity = 4200 J/kg^{o}C

Formula used to calculate the energy is as follows.

q = m \times C \times (T_{2} - T_{1})

where,

q = heat energy

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity

T_{1} = initial temperature

T_{2} = final temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

q = 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times (38 - 16)^{o}C\\= 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times 22^{o}C

As it is given that water absorbs 25% of the energy incident on the solar panel. Hence, energy incident on the solar panel can be calculated as follows.

\frac{25}{100} \times q = 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times 22^{o}C\\q = 9.24 \times 10^{7} J

Thus, we can conclude that the energy incident on the solar panel during that day is 9.24 \times 10^{7} J.
