Answer:

1298.5watt

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate at which work is done

Expressed mathematically as;

P = F × d/ t; F = force or weight of object ;d is height or distance sustain and t is time covered

Hence for 1 person the power consumption is ;

Note weight =mass× acceleration of free fall due to gravity,g

g is known as 9.8m/S2

Time taken is 1min which is 60 sec

60 ×9.8 × 5.3/60 = 51.94 watt

Hence for 25 persons we have

25 × 51.94 =1298.5watt

1.3kilo watt( kilo is 1000)

Can someone tell me the answer and the reason
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

(a) the blocks all had different masses.

Explanation:

The surface is smooth, therefore coefficient of friction is tending to zero.

Forces for each blocks varied from 6N to 8N to 7N to 5N

The blocks were made of different materials and different materials are going to have varying weight for the same size of block.

Consider the following examples of homeostatic regulation: In response to an increase in plasma K concentrations, secretion of t
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Both are examples of negative feedback regulation.

Explanation:

The maintenance of the homeostasis in the body is controlled by the the feedback regulation of the body. Two main types of feedback regulation are positive regulation and negative regulation.

The negative regulation occurs when the final product of the reactions inhibits the further secretion of that product. In the given examples of aldosterone and calcium mechanism, the secretion of aldosterone and calcium decreases as the normal levels are acheived in the body.

Thus, the answer is both are examples of negative feedback regulation.

Hello!

These atoms are isotopes

Isotopes
are atoms with the same number of protons (which determine the atomic number) and a different number of neutrons. These two atoms have the same number of protons (13), but a different number of neutrons, so they are isotopes. 

According to their number of protons, these are Aluminum isotopes: ²⁷Al (stable), and ²⁶Al (radioactive), respectively. 

Have a nice day!

Given one mole of diamond vs one mole of graphite,
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The pressure is P= -  6.39*10^8Pa

The temperature is T =1218.63 K

Explanation:

Generally Gibbs free energy is mathematically represented as

                   G = E + PV -TS

   Where  E is the enthalpy

               PV is the pressure volume energy (i.e PV energy)

                S  is the entropy

                T is the temperature

For stability to occur the Gibbs free energy must be equal to zero

Considering Diamond

  So at temperature of  T = 300 K

         E + PV - TS = 0

making P the subject

          P = \frac{TS-E}{V}

Now substituting 300 K for T , 2900 J  for E ,

                              3.42cm^3 = \frac{3.42}{1*10^6} = 3.42*10^{-6}m^3 for V and 2.38 J/K for S

     P = \frac{(300 * 2.38)- 2900}{3.42*10^{-6}}

         P= -  6.39*10^8Pa

The negative sign signifies the direction of the pressure

Given that  P = 1*0^5Pa

making T the subject

            T = \frac{PV+E}{S}

Substituting into the equation

            T = \frac{1*10^5 * 3.42 *10^{-6}+2900}{2.38}

                T =1218.63 K
