Choose the correct statement concerning units of power or energy. a. A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power. b. A gigawatt (GW) is
1 answer:
Answer:
A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.
Explanation:
The power of an object is given by :
Here,
E is the energy required
t is time
The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.
Option (1) : A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.
Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.
Hence, the correct option is (d).

Answer:
The maximum velocity is 1.58 m/s.
Explanation:
A spring pendulum with stiffness k = 100N/m is attached to an object of mass m = 0.1kg, pulls the object out of the equilibrium position by a distance of 5cm, and then lets go of the hand for the oscillating object. Calculate the achievable vmax.
Spring constant, K = 100 N/m
mass, m = 0.1 kg
Amplitude, A = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Let the angular frequency is w.
The maximum velocity is
Answer:
If a vertical line extending down from an object's CG extends outside its area of support, the object will topple
Explanation:
We can understand better this situation using a diagram with the forces acting on it.
In the attached image we can see that when the gravity center is bouncing outside from the area of the pedestal, the object will be out of balance and will fall.
