Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2

What do work and energy have in common
spayn [35]

Energy and Work have the same unit of measurement which is Joules in SI units.

Explanation:

  • A Joule of Work is said to be done on an object when energy is transferred to that particular object.
  • If two objects are involved, when one object transfers energy onto the second, a joule of work is said to be done by the first object.  
  • Work is also the application of force on an object over a distance. So Work = Force × Displacement
  • Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is in 2 forms - kinetic and potential.
  • Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object while potential energy is known as the energy that is stored within an object.
  • Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²
  • Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height
  • Both energy and work are measured in Joules.

What are two advantages of using renewable resources?
Pavel [41]
One advantage is that whatever resource it is, it will never run out and you wont have to worry about not having it. A second is that there is going to be enough for everyone to use however much they want without there having to be a limit on how much you use.

A 50-ohm resistor in a 0.5 Amp circuit produces how much voltage drop?​
ahrayia [7]

25 volts

Explanation:

Use Ohm's law to find the potential drop:

V = IR

= (0.5 A)(50 ohms)

= 25 volts

A food department is kept at â12°c by a refrigerator in an environment at 30°c. the total heat gain to the food department is
slava [35]

As per energy conservation in the reversible engine we can say

Q_2 + W = Q_1

here we know that

Q_2 = 3300 kJ/h

Q_1 = 4800 kJ/h

now from above equation

3300 + W = 4800

W = 1500 kJ/h

now we can convert it into kW

W = 1500\times \frac{kJ}{3600s}

W = 0.42 kW

so above is the power input to the refrigerator

now to find COP we know that

COP = \frac{Q_2}{W}

COP = \frac{3300}{1500} = 2.2

so COP of refrigerator is 2.2
