Jordan wants to know the difference between using a 60-W and 100-W lightbulb in her lamp. She calculates the energy it would tak

e to use each bulb for 30 s by using this equation:
Power = Energy transferred (J)/time (s)

What is the difference in the amount of energy transferred by the two bulbs during this time?

A. 40 J
B. 1200 J
C. 1800 J
D. 3000 J

Answer:

B. 1200 J

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, given the powers, we compute the energy transferred as shown below:

E=P*t\\\\E_1=60J/s*30s=1800J\\\\E_2=100J/s*30s=3000J\\\\Difference=3000J-1800J\\\\Difference=1200J

Therefore, answer is B. 1200 J .

Best regards.

An elevator cable breaks when a 925-kg elevator is 28.5 m above the top of a huge spring Ak = 8.00 * 104 N????mB at the bottom o
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a) = 258352.5J

b) = 23.63 m/s

c) = 1.8m

Explanation:

Data;

Mass = 925kg

Distance (s) = 28.5m

Force constant (k) = 8.0*10⁴ N/m

g = 9.8 m/s²

a) = work = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration

Force = 925 * 9.8 = 9065N

Work = F * s = 9065 * 28.5 = 258352.5J

b) acceleration (a) = (v² - u²) / 2s

a = v² / 2s

v² = a * 2s

v² = 9.8 * (2 * 28.5)

v² = 9.8 * 57

v² = 558.6

v = √(558.6)

V = 23.63 m/s

C). The work stops when the work done to raise the spring equals the work done to stop it by the spring

W = ½kx²

258352.5 = ½ * 8.0*10⁴ * x²

(2 * 258352.5) = 8.0*10⁴x²

516705 = 8.0*10⁴x²

X² = 516705 / 8.0*10⁴

X² = 6.46

X = √(6.46)

X = 2.54m

The compression was about 2.54m

A sled slides along a horizontal surface on which the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25. Its velocity at point A is 8.4 m/
Bad White [126]

Answer:

1.06 secs

Explanation:

Initial speed of sled, u = 8.4 m/s

Final speed of sled, v = 5.8 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.25

Using the impulse momentum theory, we know that the impulse applied to the sled is equal to change in momentum of the sled:

FΔt = mv - mu

where m = mass of the object

Δt = time interval

F = force applied

The force applied on the sled is the frictional force, which is given as:

F = -μmg

where g = acceleration due to gravity

Therefore:

-μmgΔt =  mv - mu

-μmgΔt = m(v - u)

-μgΔt = v - u

Making Δt subject of formula:

Δt = (v - u) / -μg

Δt = (5.8 - 8.4) / (-0.25 * 9.8)

Δt = -2.6/ -2.45

Δt = 1.06 secs

It took the sled 1.06 secs to travel from A to B.

slader the cross section of a 5-ft long trough is an isosceles trapezoid with a 2 foot lower base, a 3-foot upper base, and an a
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

0.08 ft/min

Explanation:

To get the speed at witch the water raising at a given point we need to know the area it needs to fill at that point in the trough (the longitudinal section), which is given by the height at that point.

So we need to get the lenght of the sides for a height of 1 foot. Given the geometry of the trough, one side is the depth <em>d</em> and the other (lets call it <em>l</em>) is given by:

l=\frac{3-2}{2}\,ft+2\,ft\\l=2.5\,ft

since the difference between the upper and lower base is the increase in the base and we are only at halft the height.

Now we can calculate the longitudinal section <em>A</em> at that point:

A=d\times l\\A=5\,ft \times 2.5\, ft\\A=12.5\, ft^{2}

And the raising speed <em>v </em>of the water is given by:

v=\frac{q}{A}\\v=\frac{1\, \frac{ft^3}{min}}{12.5\, ft^2}\\v=0.08\, \frac{ft}{min}

where <em>q</em> is the water flow (1 cubic foot per minute).

What factor might be contributing to climate change
kirza4 [7]

Geological records stretching back millions of years indicate a number of large variations in Earth’s past climate. These have been caused by many natural factors, including changes in the sun, volcanoes, Earth’s orbit and CO2 levels.

However, comprehensive assessment by scientists shows that it is extremely likely that human activity has been the dominant cause of warming since the mid-20th Century.
