A kite stuck in a tree has D. Potential Energy. Kinetic means physically or moving. Thermal has to deal with the heat. And chemical has to do with a chemical energy or process. Potential means not moving or staying still.

Distance in scientific notation

n200080 [17]

Answer:

(See explanation for further information)

Explanation:

a) The distances of each planet with respect to the Sun is:

Mercury - $57.909 \times 10^{6}\,mi$

Venus - $67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Earth - $92.960\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Mars - $141.600\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Jupiter - $483.800\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Saturn - $888.200\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Uranus - $1,787\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Neptune - $2,795\times 10^{6}\,mi$

b) The solutions are presented below:

A. The distance between Venus and Jupiter is:

$\Delta s = 483.800\times 10^{6}\,mi-67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi$

$\Delta s = 416.560\times 10^{6}\,mi$

B. The combined distance from the Sun is:

$\Delta s = 57.909\times 10^{6}\,mi + 67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi +92.960\times 10^{6}\,mi$

$\Delta s = 218.109\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Which is less than the distance from the Sun to Neptune ( $2,795\times 10^{6}\,mi$ ).

C. The new distance of Earth is $929.60 \times 10^{6}\,mi$ ( $929,600,000\,mi$ ). Saturn would be the closest planet to Earth, whose distance:

Scientific notation:

$\Delta s = 929.600\times 10^{6}\,mi-888.200\,\times 10^{6}\,mi$

$\Delta s = 41.4\times 10^{6}\,mi$

Standard notation:

$\Delta s = 929,600,000\,mi - 888,200,000\,mi$

$\Delta s = 41,400.000\,mi$

You cool a 130.0 g slug of red-hot iron (temperature 745 ∘C) by dropping it into an insulated cup of negligible mass containing

erik [133]

Answer:

A) 100°C

B) 211 g

Explanation:

Heat released by red hot iron to cool to 100°C = 130 x .45 x 645 [ specific heat of iron is .45 J /g/K]

= 37732.5 J

heat required by water to heat up to 100 °C = 85 x 4.2 x 80 = 28560 J

As this heat is less than the heat supplied by iron so equilibrium temperature will be 100 ° C. Let m g of water is vaporized in the process . Heat required for vaporization = m x 540x4.2 = 2268m J

Heat required to warm the water of 85 g to 100 °C = 85X4.2 X 80 = 28560 J

heat lost = heat gained

37732.5 = 28560 + 2268m

m = 4 g.

So 4 g of water will be vaporized and remaining 81 g of water and 130 g of iron that is total of 211 g will be in the cup . final temp of water will be 100 °C.

In a car lift, compressed air exerts a force on a piston with a radius of 2.62 cm. This pressure is transmitted to a second pist

marin [14]

Answer:

847.45 N

Explanation:

F₁=force of exerted by smaller piston

F₂=force of exerted by larger piston=1.44×10⁴ N

A₁=Area of smaller piston= 2.62 cm =0.0265 m

A₂=Area of larger piston= 10.8 cm =0.108 m

Pressure exerted by both the pistons will be equal

$P_1=P_2\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=\frac{F_2}{A_2} A_1\\\Rightarrow F_1=\frac{14400}{\pi\times 0.108^2}\pi\times 0.0262^2\\\Rightarrow F_1=847.45\ N$

Hence, force exerted to lift a 14400 N car is 847.45 N

the wattage ratting of a light bulb is the power it sonsumers when it is connected accross a 120 V potential difference what is

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

240 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance: This can be defined as the opposition to the flow of current in an electric field. The S.I unit of resistance is ohms (Ω).

The expression for resistance power and voltage is give as,

P = V²/R.......................... Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, R = Resistance

Making R the subject of the equation,

R = V²/P.................... Equation 2

Given: V = 120 V, P = 60 W.

Substitute into equation 2

R = 120²/60

R = 240 Ω

Hence the resistance of the bulb = 240 Ω
