Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.

What's at the bottom of the black hole? Explain .​
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Unknown

Explanation:

By definition, we can't observe what's inside there, because no light – no information of any kind – can escape a black hole. But astrophysical theories suggest that, at the core of a black hole, all the black hole's mass is concentrated into a tiny point of infinite density. This point is known as a singularity.

What is the potential energy of an object 20 m in the air with a<br> mass of 600 kg?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Ep = 117600 J

Explanation:

Data:

  • Mass (m) = 600 kg
  • Height (h) = 20 m
  • Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Potential Energy (Ep) = ?

Use formula:

  • Ep = m * g * h

Replace:

  • Ep = 600 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 20 m

Multiply operations, and units:

  • Ep = 117600 J

What is the potential energy?

The potential energy is <u>117600 Joules.</u>

__________ helps us adapt to our environment. It also generally __________ with age. A. Plasticity . . . decreases B. Developmen
Nana76 [90]
Not sure this is a physics question (probably biology).
Anyway, the correct answer is A):
"Plasticity helps us to adapt to our environment. It also generally decreases with age".
Plasticity is the ability to adapt to the environment. Since this ability is linked with brain functions, and brain functions worsen with age, then plasticity decreases with age.

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?
slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.
