1. Millions of gallons of water are wasted by households in America on a yearly basis as a result of wastage of water in the laundry rooms. There are many ways by which water can be conserved in the laundry room, these include:
1. Using a high efficiency washing machine.
2. Choosing the right load sizes and cycles when using washing machines.
3. Wearing clothes more than once before washing them.
4. Collection of grey and rain water.
5. Treat difficult stains before washing them.
2. Using a high efficiency machine will ensure that water is used efficiently. A high efficiency washing machine uses much less water and save about 6,000 gallons of water for an average family on a yearly basis according to Environmental Protection Agency.
Grey water refers to water that have used once. Water that has been used for washing clothes or bathing can be collected again, recycle and use for some household needs such as gardening, flushing of toilet, etc. Water tanks can also be installed to collect rain water which can be used for washing clothes. This will have positive effect on household overall water consumption.
Answer:
Explanation:
The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by:
where
is the vacuum permittivity
is the area of the plates
is the separation between the plates
Substituting,
The energy stored in the capacitor is given by
Since we know the energy
we can re-arrange the formula to find the charge, Q:
Answer:
I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.
II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.
Explanation:
In conduction mode of heat transfer we know that the energy is transferred from one system to other system due to direct contact of two bodies
Here due to this direct contact the energy is transferred via a given solid or liquid medium
In this type of heat transfer medium particles will remain in its own position only the energy is transferred.
So here we can say the correct answer will be
I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.
II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.
Answer:
Options d and e
Explanation:
The pendulum which will be set in motion are those which their natural frequency is equal to the frequency of oscillation of the beam.
We can get the length of the pendulums likely to oscillate with the formula;
where g=9.8m/s
ω= 2rad/s to 4rad/sec
when ω= 2rad/sec
L = 2.45m
when ω= 4rad/sec
L = 9.8/16
L=0.6125m
L is between 0.6125m and 2.45m.
This means only pendulum lengths in this range will oscillate.Therefore pendulums with length 0.8m and 1.2m will be strongly set in motion.
Have a great day ahead
