Answer:

560 watts

The rate of energy dissipation is 560 W

Explanation:

Rate of energy dissipation is the rate of energy consumption in the x-ray tube.

P = VI

Given;

Voltage V = 80 kV = 80,000

Current I = 7mA = 0.007 A

Substituting the given values;

P = 80,000 V × 0.007A

P = 560 Joules per second

P = 560 watts

The rate of energy dissipation is 560 W

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Gravitational Force is reduced 4 times

Explanation:

The equation of Gravitational force follows:

F = (G*m1*m2)/r^2

Assume that G*m1*m2 = 1 and r = 1:

F = 1/1^2 = 1 N

Multiply the radius by 2

F = 1/2^2 = 1/4 N

So doubling the distance reduces the force 4 times.

PLEASE ANSWER-Why are loose electrons needed for heat conduction?

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Why do metals conduct heat so well? The electrons in metal are delocalised electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.

A train at rest emits a sound at a frequency of 1057 Hz. An observer in a car travels away from the sound source at a speed of 2

il63 [147K]

Answer:

993.52 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of sound emitted by the stationery train is 1057 Hz.

The car travels away from the train at 20.6 m/s.

The frequency the observer hears is given by the formula:

$f_o = \frac{v - v_o}{v}f$

where v = velocity of sound = 343 m/s

vo = velocity of observer

f = frequency from source

This phenomenon is known as Doppler's effect.

Therefore:

$f_o = \frac{343 - 20.6}{343} * 1057\\ \\f_o = 322.4 / 343 * 1057\\\\f_o = 993.52 Hz$

The frequency heard by the observer is 993.52 Hz.

Please help

eimsori [14]

Answer:

It's important that we understand how the climate is changing, so that we can prepare for the future. Studying the climate helps us predict how much rain the next winter might bring, or how far sea levels will rise due to warmer sea temperatures
As the cold front passes, winds become gusty. There is a sudden drop in temperature, and also heavy rain, sometimes with hail, thunder, and lightning.
