Problem 2: Estimate the electric power requirement, in kW, of a 1,400 ft2floor area (three bedroomshome) with three occupants. U

sing your home power estimate, predict the power requirementsfor a city of 300,000 people. Use these results to estimate the area (inkm2)of silicon solar cells requiredto satisfy the community power requirements. Assume, thepower requirements for an average single family home of 3 are 108.4 x 106BTU per year and solar panels insolation

Answer:

a) 3170 kw

b) 377 km^2

Explanation:

Estimate of electric power

a) Given :

Average power consumption for a family of 3 = 108.4 * 106 BTU per year  =  0.0317 kw = 31.7 watts

<u>The power requirement for a city of 300000 people </u>

= 31.7 watts * 100000 = 3170000 watts = 3170 kw

b) Given :

Average solar panel insulation = 8.4 W /m^2

<u>Estimate the area of silicon solar cells required to satisfy community power requirement</u>

= (1 * 3170) * (1000/8.4 )

= 377.380 * 10^3 m2 = 377 km^2

The wheels of an automobile are locked as it slides to a stop from an initial speed of 30.0 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic f
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

  x = 76.5 m

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law at the point of contact between the wheel and the floor.

     fr = m a

     fr = miy N

     N-W = 0

     N = W

     μ mg = m a

     a = miu g

    a = 0.600 9.8

    a = 5.88 m / s²

Having the acceleration we can use the kinematic relationships to find the distance

     v_{f}² = v₀² + 2 a x

    v_{f} = 0

    x = -v₀² / 2 a

Acceleration opposes the movement by which negative

   x = - 30²/2 (-5.88)

   x = 76.5 m

A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.6 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\</h3>

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

a =  \frac{23 - 0}{5}  =  \frac{23}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.6 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
