Answer:

Cost = 165.6 cents = $1.656

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the total energy consumed by the bulb in a month:

E=Pt\\

where,

E = Energy Consumed = ?

P = power = 23 W

t = time = (1 month)(30 days/1 month)(24 h/1 day) = 720 h

Therefore,

E = (23\ W)(720\ h)\\E = 16560\ Wh = 16.56\ Kilowatt-hour

Now, the cost will be:

Cost = P(Unit\ Cost)\\Cost = (16.56\ kilowatt-hour)(10\ cents/kilowatt-hour)

<u>Cost = 165.6 cents = $1.656</u>

A ball is dropped from rest at point O. After falling for some time, it passes by a window of height 3.3 m and it does so in 0.2
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s

Explanation:

Height of window = 3.3 m

Time took to cover window = 0.27 s

Initial velocity, u = 0m/s

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

For the top of window (position A)

                     s_A=0\times t_A+0.5\times 9.81t_A^2\\\\s_A=4.905t_A^2

For the bottom of window (position B)

                     s_B=0\times t_B+0.5\times 9.81t_B^2\\\\s_A=4.905t_B^2

\texttt{Height of window=}s_B-s_A=3.3\\\\4.905t_B^2-4.905t_A^2=3.3\\\\t_B^2-t_A^2=0.673

We also have

                 t_B-t_A=0.27

Solving

         t_B=0.27+t_A\\\\(0.27+t_A)^2-t_A^2=0.673\\\\t_A^2+0.54t_A+0.0729-t_A^2=0.673\\\\t_A=1.11s\\\\t_B=0.27+1.11=1.38s

So after 1.11 seconds ball reaches at top of window,

       We have equation of motion v = u + at

                                     v_A=0+9.81\times 1.11=10.89m/s

Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s

Which substance cannot be seperated physically or chemically?
scoray [572]

Answer:

What is a Pure Substance?

Explanation:

It is something which cannot be divided into parts by physical means, as it's all made up of the same thing. Pure substances are either elements or compounds. Elements can NOT be separated into other types of matter (physically or chemically).
