Power is the amount of work done per unit of time. It will have units of Watts which is equal to Joules per second. We determine the energy of each system above by multiplying the power with time. We do as follows:

E(heater) =1000 W (1 hr) (3600s/hr) = 3,600,000 J
E(bulb) = 100 W (24 hr) (3600s/hr) = 8,640,000 J

Therefore, the answer would be false. It is the bulb that consumes more energy.

. A toy rocket has a mass of 350 g at launch. The force it produces

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

the acceleration is reduced by gravity

a = (15 / .35) - [9.8 * sin(65º)]

Explanation:

break the launch vector into two components, vertical and horizontal

Force Net Vertical=-9.8*.350+15cos65 N

force net horizonal=15sin65

initial acceleration= force/mass= (-9.8+15/.350*cos65)j+(15/.350*sin65)i

using i,j vectors..

Two particles, one with charge -5.45 × 10^-6 C and one with charge 4.39 × 10^-6 C, are 0.0209 meters apart. What is the magnitud

Levart [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, $q_1=-5.45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge 2, $q_2=4.39\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between charges, r = 0.0209 m

1. The electric force is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

$F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{-5.45\times 10^{-6}\times 4.39\times 10^{-6}}{(0.0209)^2}$

F = -492.95 N

2. Distance between two identical charges, $r=0.0209\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_3^2}{r^2}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{492.95\times (0.0209)^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q_3=4.89\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A motorcycle rider moving with an initial velocity of 9.2 m/s uniformly accelerates to a speed of 19.1 m/s in a distance of 32.0

Vlada [557]

Acceleration = (final velocity^2 - initial velocity^2) / 2 * distance

Acceleration = (19.1^2 - 9.2^2) / 2 * 32

Acceleration = (364.81 - 84.64) / 64

Acceleration = 280.17 / 64

Acceleration = 4.3777m/s^2

In a physics experiment, two equal-mass carts roll towards each other on a level, low-friction track. One cart rolls rightward a

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_1v_2$

Where :

$m_1, m_2$ = masses of object collided

$u_1,u_2$ = initial velocity before collision

$v_1,v_2$ = final velocity after collision

We have :

Two equal-mass carts roll towards each other.

$m_1=m_2=M$

Initial velocity of $m_1=u_1=2 m/s$

Initial velocity of $m_2=u_2=-1 m/s$ (opposite direction)

Final velocity of $m_1=v_1=v$ (same direction )

Final velocity of $m_2=v_2=v$ (same direction)

$M\times 2 m/s+M(-1 m/s)=Mv+Mv$

$1 m/s=2v$

v = 0.5 m/s

rg135

The speed of the carts after their collision is 0.5 m/s.
