Answer:

= 54,000 Joules or 54 kJ

Explanation:

Electrical energy is given by the formula;

E = VIt; where V is the potential difference in volts, I is the current and t is the time in seconds.

Therefore;

Electrical energy = 120 V × 0.50 A × 15 ×60 seconds

                            = 54,000 Joules

Thus; the electrical energy is 54,000 joules or 54 kJ

29. What is the average velocity of an object that moves
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Average Velocity = - 1.22 cm/s = - 0.0122 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of an object is defined as the ratio of the total distance traveled by the object to the total time taken by the object to cover the distance. Therefore, the average velocity of an object can be found by the following formula:

Average Velocity = Total Distance Covered/Total Time Taken

Average Velocity = (Final Position - Initial Position)/Total Time Taken

Average Velocity = (3.7 cm - 6.5 cm)/(2.3 s)

Average Velocity = (- 2.8 cm)/(2.3 s)

<u>Average Velocity = - 1.22 cm/s = - 0.0122 m/s</u>

here, the negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity or the movement of the object is leftwards or towards the origin approaching from right.

The torque of a system whose force is 30n and length is 2m
Helen [10]
<h2>Answer </h2>

The torque is 60 Nm.

<u>Explanation</u>

The torque of a system whose force is 30 N and the length is 2 m, then the torque is 60 Nm. The formula for torque is ( Force ) x ( moment arm ). Hence by putting values in the formula, torque = ( 30 N ) ( 2 m) which is equal to 60 Nm. The unit for torque is newton-meter (Nm). Torque is the turning effect or the force which tends to move the object in a circle and tends to rotate around a circle. Torque is a vector quantity.

The SI base units for torque is kg ⋅ m 2 ⋅ s − 2.

A wire along the z axis carries a current of 6.4 A in the z direction Find the magnitude and direction of the force exerted on a
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The magnetic force will be 0.256 N in +y direction.                                          

Explanation:

It is given that, a wire along the z axis carries a current of 6.4 A in the z direction. Length of the wire is 8 cm. It is placed in uniform magnetic field with magnitude 0.50 T in the x direction.

The magnetic force in terms of length of wire is given by :

F=I(L\times B)\\\\F=ILB\\\\F=6.4\times 0.08\times 0.5\\\\F=0.256\ N

For direction,

F=I k(L\times Bi)\\\\F=Fj

So, the magnetic force will be 0.256 N in +y direction.

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 1 s. What is your acceleration? m/s2
ziro4ka [17]
Average acceleration is
Change in Velocity/change in time
So you could then do Vf-Vi/Tf-Ti
Which would look like 13m/s-6m/s / 1s-0s
Which then is 7m/s/1s which means the acceleration is 7m/s^2

How can u tell matched forces act on objects?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,

then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of

these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on

an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When

that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed

is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not

possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it
