Given that the efficiency of heating your room is roughly 35%, what mass of natural gas is actually necessary to heat your room

Answer:

Mass of natural gas needed to heat the room is 350,000BTUs

Explanation:

The heating efficiency of a furnace is never 100% because not all energy is released and not all heat is available to heat the place. A lesser efficiency requires more consumption of fuel. Heating values are used for heating fuels in order to calculate the mass of fuel needed.

The heating value of natural gas is 1,000,000BTUs

Therefore the formular for calculating mass of natural gas needed= Heating value of natural gas×efficiency.

Mass=1,000,000×0.35

Mass=350,000BTUs

What is the change in velocity of a 15 kg object that experiences a 5 N force for 0.3 seconds?
alukav5142 [94]

Hello!

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Use the equation F = m · a to solve for the acceleration:

5 = 15 · a

a = 1/3

The equation to solve for acceleration can be rewritten to solve for the change in velocity:

Δv / t = a

Δv = at

We are given the acceleration and time, therefore:

Δv = (1/3)(0.3)

Δv = 0.1 m/s

First you have to note down you horoscope for 2-3 days.

Daily observe what is written in your horoscope is true or not. You can observe your entire day movements.

Now you have to conclude whether your horoscope was true or not and you have to write an essay explaining what had happened to you in past observation and conclude whether you believe in astronomy or not depending on your observations

5) A girl with 40kg mass is riding an 8 kg bicycle. At the top of the hill her speed is 6.0 m/s, and her speed triples at the bo
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Work = 6912 joules

Explanation:

Non-conservative forces are dissipative forces such as friction or air resistance. These forces take energy away from the system as the system progresses, energy that you can't get back. These forces are path dependent; therefore it matters where the object starts and stops.

Total mass = 40 + 8 = 48kg

Initial speed u= 6 m/s

Final speed v = 3*initial

Final speed v = 3* 6 = 18 m/s

Distance s = 15

Acceleration a is?

V² = U² + 2aS

18² = 6² + 2a*15

324 = 36 + 30a

324-36= 30a

288 = 30a

288/30 = a

9.6= a

Force = mass* acceleration

Force = 48*9.6

Force = 460.8N

Work = force*distance

Work = 460.8*15

Work = 6912 joules

Taxonomy: the techniques of describing,naming and classifying living organisms on the basis of similarities and dissimilarities

Prokaryote: prokaryotes were the earliest living organisms which are unicellular having a primitive nucleus i.e they don’t have a true nucleus

Virus: viruses are non cellular parasitic entities. They cannot live or reproduce outside of living cells since they lack machinery to do so by themselves. They range in size from 20nm to 250nm
