Your outlets at home are rated at 120 V, i.e. the two prongs have on average a potential difference of 120V. If you transfer 2.7

moles of electrons at that voltage, how much energy is released?

4 0

Answer:

E =230.4 MJ

Explanation:

As 1 mole of electron =  6X 10^23 particles.

charge of an electron is 1.6 X 10 ^-19 C

Finding Charge:

(6X10^23 ) (2.7)(1.6X10^-19 C)

i.e. 192 K C

now  to find the energy released from electrons

V=E/q

E=V X q

i.e E = 120 V X 192 K C

E =230.4 MJ

What are the two distinct ways in which energy moves outward from the solar core to photosphere?
butalik [34]

Answer:

The energy may be carried in the form of (1) radiation, where energy travels in the form of light, and (2) convection, where energy is carried by physical motion of upwelling solar gas.

A satellite orbits the earth a distance of 1.50 × 107 m above the planet's surface and takes 8.65 hours for each revolution abou
kupik [55]

Answer:

The acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The acceleration in a circular motion is defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (1)

Where a is the centripetal acceleration, v the velocity and r is the radius.

The equation of the orbital velocity is defined as

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T} (2)

Where r is the radius and T is the period

For this particular case, the radius will be the sum of the high of the satellite (1.50x10^{7} m) and the Earth radius (6.38x10^{6} m) :

r = 1.50x10^{7} m+6.38x10^{6}m

r = 21.38x10^{6}m

Then, equation 2 can be used:

T = 8.65 hrs \cdot \frac{3600 s}{1hrs} ⇒ 31140 s

v = \frac{2 \pi (21.38x10^{6}m)}{31140s}

v = 4313 m/s

Finally equation 1 can be used:

a = \frac{(4313m/s)^{2}}{21.38x10^{6}m}    

a = 0.87 m/s^{2}

Hence, the acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}
