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.

As light from a star spreads out and weakens, do gaps form between the photons?<br>​
Zolol [24]

Answer:

There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come  to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.

If an object travels 15 metres in 5 seconds, what is the slope of its distance-time graph?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

The slope is distance divided by time, also known as 'speed'.

15 meters / 5 seconds = 3 meters per second.

A small economy car (low mass) and a limousine (high mass) are pushed from rest across a parking lot, equal distances with equal
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.

Explanation:

K.E = 0.5*mv²

Where;

K.E is the kinetic Energy

M is the mass of an object

V is the velocity of the moving object

But F = m(v/t), from Newton's second law of motion

If equal forces were applied to the two cars, then the velocity of each car will be calculated as follows.

v = (Ft/m)

v² = (Ft/m)²

Substitute in the value of v² into Kinetic energy equation

K.E = 0.5*mv²

K.E = 0.5*m(Ft/m)² = (0.5*F²t²)/m

Also assuming equal distance, equal force and assuming equal time for both cars.

The above equation will reduce to, K.E = k/m

Where k = 0.5*F²t², which is equal in both cars.

Thus, Kinetic energy will depend only on the mass of each car.

From the above expression, Kinetic Energy received by each car is inversely proportional to the mass of the car.

A small economy car (low mass)  will receive more kinetic energy while a limousine (high mass) car will receive less kinetic energy.

Therefore, the car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.

A car is designed to get its energy from a rotating flywheel with a radius of 1.50 m and a mass of 430 kg. Before a trip, the fl
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

a

  KE  =  7.17 *10^{7} \ J

b

 t = 6411.09 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The radius of the flywheel is  r =  1.50 \ m

      The mass of the flywheel is m  = 430 \ kg

          The rotational speed of the flywheel is w  =  5,200 \ rev/min = 5200 *  \frac{2 \pi }{60} =544.61 \ rad/sec

      The power supplied by the motor is  P  =  15.0 hp =  15 * 746 =  11190 \ W

         

     Generally the moment of inertia of the flywheel is  mathematically represented as

       I  = \frac{1}{2} mr^2

substituting values

       I  = \frac{1}{2}  ( 430)(1.50)^2

       I  = 483.75 \  kgm^2

The kinetic energy that is been stored is  

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * I * w^2

substituting values

        KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * 483.75 * (544.61)^2

        KE  =  7.17 *10^{7} \ J

Generally power is mathematically represented as

          P =  \frac{KE}{t}

=>      t =  \frac{KE}{P}

substituting the value

        t = \frac{7.17 *10^{7}}{11190}

        t = 6411.09 \ s
