Answer:
Velocity
Explanation:
We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion. 
Hence, the given information describes wind velocity. 
 
        
             
        
        
        

Strength: able to detect planets in a wide range of orbits, as long as orbits aren't face on 
Limitations: yield only planet's mass and orbital properties
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
 T = 0.017s
Explanation:
period is the time it takes a particle to make one oscillation
 An electric current is periodic in nature
The current reaches 3.8A  ten times.  
So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17s.   let 'T'  be the period:

t is the total time interval
n is the number of oscillations

10T = 0.17
T = 0.17/10 = 0.017s
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
We will solve this problem by calculating each part separately.
A 500 W hair dyer is used to dry hair for 6 minutes a day for 3 days. 
Energy can be calculated by multiplying the value of the power of the equipment by the amount of time of use.
![500 [W]*[\frac{6min}{1day} ]*[\frac{1day}{24hr} ]*[\frac{1hr}{60min} ]=2.083 [W]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=500%20%5BW%5D%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7B6min%7D%7B1day%7D%20%5D%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7B1day%7D%7B24hr%7D%20%5D%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7B1hr%7D%7B60min%7D%20%5D%3D2.083%20%5BW%5D)
The cots of electricity is 5.6 cents per kWh. How much would it cost to operate the laptop for 24 hours a day for one week?
We know that the power of the latop is 75 [W], then we can calculate the cost, multiplying the value of the power by the value of the cost by the time of use of the computer.
![0.075[kW]*5.6[\frac{cents}{kw*h}}]*[\frac{24hr}{1day}]*[1week]*[\frac{7days}{1week} ]=70.56 [cents]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.075%5BkW%5D%2A5.6%5B%5Cfrac%7Bcents%7D%7Bkw%2Ah%7D%7D%5D%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7B24hr%7D%7B1day%7D%5D%2A%5B1week%5D%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7B7days%7D%7B1week%7D%20%5D%3D70.56%20%5Bcents%5D)
A toaster oven is 85% efficient. It uses 1200 J of energy. How much thermal energy is it producing?
Efficiency is defined as the relationship between the energy obtained on the energy delivered. Almost always the energy delivered is greater than the energy obtained (first law of thermodynamics).
Therefore.
![Effic = E_{obtained}/E_{delivered}\\0.85=E_{obtained}/1200\\E_{obtained}=1020[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Effic%20%3D%20E_%7Bobtained%7D%2FE_%7Bdelivered%7D%5C%5C0.85%3DE_%7Bobtained%7D%2F1200%5C%5CE_%7Bobtained%7D%3D1020%5BJ%5D)
