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>

an empty propane tank dropped from a hot air balloon hits the ground with a speed of 143.8 m/s. from what height was the tank re
vodomira [7]
What you know:
Vi=0m/s
Vf=143.8m/s
A=-9.8m/s
d=???
Use the equation Vf^2=Vi^2+2A(d)
Rearrange to isolate d: d=Vf^2/2A
d=(143.8)^2/2(-9.8)
d=20678.4/-19.6
d=-1055m
The tank was released from a height of 1055m

The angular velocity (in rpm) of the blade of a blender is given in. If θ=0rad at t=0s, what is the blade's angular position at
Liula [17]

Answer:

θ = 20.9 rad

Explanation:

In a blender after a short period of acceleration the blade is kept at a constant angular velocity, for which we can use the relationship

           w = θ / t

           θ = w t

if we know the value of the angular velocity we can find the angular position, we must remember that all the angles must be in radians

suppose that the angular velocity is w = 10 rpm, let us reduce to the SI system

          w = 10 rpm (\frac{2\pi  rad}{1 rev}) ( \frac{1 min}{60 s} )

= 1,047 rads

let's calculate

          θ = 1,047 20

          θ = 20.9 rad
