Answer:

a. Energy = 28800000 Joules

b. Energy = 8 Kwh

c. Cost = $4

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 1000 Watts

Time = 8 hours

Cost = $0.5 per KWh

Conversion:

1 hour = 60 * 60 = 3600 seconds

8 hour = 8 * 3600 = 28800 seconds

a. To find much electrical energy, in joules;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 1000 * 28800

Energy = 28800000 Joules

b. To find how much energy is that in kilowatt hours;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 1000 * 8

Energy = 8000 Watt-hour = 8000/1000 = 8 Kwh (1 Kilowatts is equal to 1000 watts).

c. To calculate the cost of using this heater;

Cost = 8 * 0.5

Cost = $4

A rope is vibrating so as to form the standing wave pattern shown. How many antinodes are present in the rope?a- 5b- 4c- 8d- 10e
denpristay [2]

c) 8

Explanation

When you shake a rope, the particles in the rope move up and down, and the wave moves forward or away from the source of energy. The rope moves in a direction that is perpendicular

Nodes are the places where the rope doesn't move at all; antinodes occur where the motion is greatest.

Step 1

let's check the graph:

a) Nodes

and Antinodes

so, in the ripe there are 8 antinodes

therefore, the answer is

c) 8

Liquefication occurs when
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: Liquefaction occurs when the structure of a loose, saturated sand breaks down due to some rapidly applied loading.

As the structure breaks down, the loosely-packed individual soil particles attempt to move into a denser configuration. Liquefaction most often occurs when three conditions are met:

loose, granular sediment or fill

saturation by groundwater

strong shaking

Assuming that 50% of the initial kinetic energy of the bullet is converted into thermal energy in the bullet and the specific he
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

\Delta T=\frac{v_{i}^{2}}{4c}

Explanation:

Let the mass of bullet is m, initial velocity of bullet is vi and c be the specific heat of the bullet.

Kinetic energy, K = 1/2 mvi^2

According to the question, 50% of the kinetic energy is equal to the heat energy absorbed by the bullet.

50% of K = mass of bullet x specific heat x rise in temperature

1/4 mvi^2 = m x c x ΔT

\Delta T=\frac{v_{i}^{2}}{4c}
