Calculate the power of a train that uses 2MJ of chemical energy in 4 seconds.

Physics

nadya68 [22]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

500 kW

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy of the train, E = 2 MJ = 2×10⁶ J

Time, t = 4 seconds

We need to find the power of the train. We know that,

Power = energy/time

So,

P=\dfrac{2\times 10^6}{4}\\\\P=500000\ W\\\\or\\\\P=500\ kW

So, the power of the train is equal to 500 kW.

a desktop computer and monitor together draw about 2 A of current they plug into a wall outlet that is 120 V what is the Resista
Delvig [45]

Answer:

60 \Omega

Explanation:

the relation between current, voltage and resistance in an electrical circuit is given by Ohm's law:

V=IR

where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. In this problem, the current is I=2 A, the voltage is V=120 V, therefore we can arrange the previous equation and find the resistance:

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{120 V}{2 A}=60 \Omega

Calculate the electric field at one corner of a square 50 cm on a side if the other corners are occupied by 250x10-7C (charges)
SIZIF [17.4K]

The electric field at one corner of a square is 1614217 N/C.

Explanation:

The distance between x and y direction diagonals.

As per the given details the distance between diagonals is calculated as

0.5² + 0.5² = c²  =>  c = 0.707 m

Charge to the right:  In x direction

In order to find the electric charge towards x direction

we use e = kq/r² formula

As 'k' is coulomb's constant it's value is 9 x 10^{9} N m²/C²

e = (9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x 10^{5} N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.707)²] cos 45

e = 225000√2 N/C

X direction sum = 1218198 N/C.

Similarly as shown in x direction the charge is same for y direction also

Charge below:  For y direction

e = kq/r²

e = (9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x 10^{5} N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²] sin 45

e = 159099 N/C

Y direction sum = 1059099 N/C

Resultant electric field strength:

1218198 ² + 1059099² = e²

e = 1614217 N/C [45 degrees below the horizontal]

147.5 ml of ethyl alcohol (coefficient of volume expansion = 1120 x 10-6K-1) at a temperature of 273.1 K is measured into a 150.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

288.2 K

Explanation:

\beta = Volumetric expansion coefficient = 1120\times 10^{-6}\ /K

T_i = Initial temperature = 273.1 K

T_f = Final temperature

v_0 = Original volume = 150 mL

Change in volume is given by

\Delta v=\beta v_0(T_f-T_i)\\\Rightarrow T_f=\frac{\Delta v}{\beta v_0}+T_i\\\Rightarrow T_f=\frac{150-147.5}{1120\times 10^{-6}\times 147.5}+273.1\\\Rightarrow T_f=288.2\ K

The temperature of the ethyl alcohol should be 288.2 K to reach 150 mL
