Answer:

the cost of operating the light bulb is 72 cents.

Explanation:

Given;

cost of electricity, C = 6 cents / kW.h

power of light bulb, P = 100 W

time of light power consumption, t = 4 hours per day for 30 days

total time = 4 hours x 30 = 120 hours

Power consumed by the light bulb is calculated as;

P = 100 x 120 = 12000 w.h = 12 kW.h

Cost of power consumption = 6 cents/kWh x 12 kWh

                                               = 72 cents

Therefore, the cost of operating the light bulb is 72 cents.

MariettaO [177]
Power = Iω (constant) as they are connected together, since effort axle has large radius than resistance axle, so moment of inertia of effort axle is also more as compared to resistance axle, so angular speed of effort axle is less than the resistance axle. So answer is B. resistance axle  will have more angular speed as its moment of inertia is less for the same power.

Citrus2011 [14]
Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

A coin is dropped in a 15.0 m deep well.
labwork [276]

Answer:

t = 1.75

t = 0.04

Explanation:

a)

For part 1 we want to use a kenamatic equation with constant acceleration:

X = 1/2*a*t^2

isolate time

t = sqrt(2X / a)

Plugin known variables. Acceleration is the force of gravity which is 9.8 m/s^2

t = sqrt(2*15m / 9.8m/s^2)

t = 1.75 s

b)

The speed of sound travels at a constant speed therefore we don't need acceleration and can use the equation:

v = d / t

isolate time

t = d / v

plug in known variables

t = 15m / 340m/s

t = 0.04 s
