Answer:

The cost is 297 cents.

Explanation:

Power of iron, P = 1140 W

Power of coffee pot, P' = 510 W

Voltage, V = 110 V

Time, t = 0.5 h each day

Cost = 12 cents per kWh

(a) Total energy

E = P x t + P' x t

E = 1140 x 0.5 x 60 x 60 + 510 x 0.5 x 60 x 60

E = 2052000 + 918000 = 2970000 J

1 kWh = 3.6 x 10^6 J

E = 0.825 kWh

For 30 days

E' = 0.825 x 30 = 24.75 kWh

So, the cost is

= 12 x 24.75 = 297 cents

An ideal parallel-plate capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a very small distance d. When
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

2dQ²/2εA = 2U₀

Explanation:

The energy stored in the ideal parallel plate capacitor U = Q²/2C. For a parallel plate capacitor, C = εA/d where A is the area between the plates and D is the distance between them. So

U = Q²/2C = Q²/2εA/d = dQ²/2εA. At distance d₁ = d, U = U₀,

U₀ = dQ²/2εA,

When d₂ = 2d, U₁ = d₂Q²/2εA = 2dQ²/2εA = 2U₀

The space shuttle travels at about 28,000 km per hour. Using that information, estimate how many hours it will take the shuttle

It depends what is the position of earth and saturn. Distance from earth to saturn varies depending on whether earth is between sun and saturn or sun is between earth and saturn. Obviously, the shortest distance will be if earth is between sun and saturn. we will take that the distance between earth and saturn is:

s = 1 275 000 000 km
The time required to travel that distance is:
t = s/v = 45535 hours or 1897.3 days

Four identical masses m are evenly spaced on a frictionless 1D track. The first mass is sent at speed v toward the other three.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The speed decreases 75%.

Explanation:

  • Since no friction present, assuming no external forces acting during the three collisions, total momentum must be conserved.
  • For the first collission, only mass 1 is moving before it, so we can write the following equation:

       p_{i} = p_{f} = m*v_{o}    (1)

  • Since both masses are identical, and they stick together after the collision, we can express the final momentum as follows:

       p_{f1} = 2*m*v_{1}    (2)

  • From (1) and (2) we get:
  • v₁ = v₀/2  (3)
  • Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1 and 2 combined together before colliding with mass 3 is just v₁, so the initial momentum prior the second collision (p₁) can be expressed as follows:

       p_{1} = 2*m*v_{1} = 2*m*\frac{v_{o} }{2}  = m*v (4)

  • Since after the collision the three masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₂) as follows:

        p_{2} = 3*m*v_{2}  (5)

  • From (4) and (5) we get:
  • v₂ = v₀/3  (6)
  • Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1, 2 and 3 combined together before colliding with mass 4 is just v₂, so the initial momentum prior the third collision (p₂) can be expressed as follows:

      p_{2} = 3*m*v_{2} = 3*m*\frac{v_{o} }{3}  = m*v (7)

  • Since after the collision the four masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₃) as follows:

       p_{3} = 4*m*v_{3}  (8)

  • From (7) and (8) we get:
  • v₃ = v₀/4
  • This means that after the last collision, the speed will have been reduced to a 25% of the initial value, so it will have been reduced in a 75% regarding the initial value of v₀.
