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>

Suppose that you observe light emitted from a distant star to be at a wavelength of 525 nm. The wavelength of light to an observ
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of observer = 525 nm

Wave length of source = 950 nm

We need to calculate the velocity

If the direction is from observer to star.

From Doppler effect

\lambda_{0}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times\lambda_{s}

Put the value into the formula

525=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times950

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=(\dfrac{525}{950})^2

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=0.305

c+v=0.305\times(c-v)

v(1+0.305)=c(0.305-1)

v=\dfrac{0.305-1}{1+0.305}c

v=−0.532c

Negative sign shows the star is moving toward the observer.

Hence, The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

The greater the pull of gravity on an object, the greater the what of that object
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

weight

Explanation:

" the greater the pull of gravity on an object, the greater the weight of that object." In physics, weight is measured in newtons (N), the common unit for measuring force.

The charge that passes a cross-sectional area A=10-4 m2 varies with time according
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Current = dQ/dt

or I = dQ/dt

Where I represents current.

Which is the rate of flow of charge.

Q=4 + 2t + t²

dQ/dt = 2 + 2t --- This is the relation that gives the instantaneous current.

At time t=2sec

dQ/dt = I = 2 + 2t

= 2 + 2(2)

=2 + 4

= 6A.
