Answer: 6,987,000 pounds fo CO₂ per kWh.
Step-by-step explanation: <u>Quilowatt</u>-<u>hour</u> <u>(kWh)</u> is a unit of energy that measures the amount of energy expended in 1 hour.
The AC uses 850 Watts, which in kW is 850,000 kW
If you leave the AC on for 6 hours, it will consume
850,000(6) = 5,100,000 kWh
Eletricity produces 1.37 pounds of CO₂ per kWh, then in 5,100,000 kWh:
1.37 .(5,100,000kWh) = 6,987,000 pounds
If you open a window for 6 hours, you would keep 6,987,000 pounds of CO₂ for entering the atmosphere.
Niklas takes a dose of 25 micrograms of a certain supplement each day. The supplement has a half life of 4 hours, meaning that 1/64 of the supplement remains in the body after each day. How much of the supplement is in Niklas's body immediately after the 12th dose? Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
The amount of the supplement in Niklas body immediately after the 12th dose is 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
Step-by-step explanation:
Half life is the time required for an element to decay into half of its initial size.
Given that :
The supplement has a half life of 4 hours, this implies that it decay to half of its size every 4 hours.
∴ there are 6 stages of division in a day.
i.e
The amount of the supplement in Niklas body after the first dose (first day) can be calculated as:
= × 25
= 0.390625 micrograms
It is said that he used the supplement daily for 12 days (12th dose),
As such ; we can estimate the amount of the supplement that is in his body immediately after the 12th dose; which is calculated as:
amount in his body per day × number of period for complete decay
= 0.390625 × 11
= 4.296875
≅4.30 micrograms
= 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
The amount of the supplement in Niklas body immediately after the 12th dose is 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
