Answer:

420m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time = 5minutes

Average speed = 1.4m/s

Unknown:

Distance covered = ?

Solution:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

Mathematically;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Distance = speed x time

Insert the parameters and solve;

Convert the time to seconds;

1 minute = 60s

5 minute = 5 x 60 = 300s

So,

Insert the parameters and find the distance;

Distance = 300 x 1.4 = 420m

If all this energy is added to 50 kg of water (the amount of water in a 165-lb person) at 37 ∘C, what is the final state of the

Reika [66]

Answer:

Vapors

Explanation:

We take into account that all the energy from the lightning has been transformed into steam.

$\Delta U = Q - W\\Q = mC \Delta T\\Q = mL$

We calculate the amount of energy required by water to convert into steam.

$Q_{water} = 50 \times \times 4180 \times (100-37)\\= 1.132 \times 10^7 \ J$

$Q_{change\ to\ steam} = 50 \times 2.256 \times 106 \\= 1.128 \times 10^8 \ J$

$Q_{total} = 1.132 \times 10^7 + 1.128 \times 10^8\\= 1.126 \times 10^8 \ J$

From the lightning we received $10^{10} \ J$ of energy, out of which $1.126 \times 10^8$ has been used to convert the water into steam.

Energy left = $10^{10} - 1.126 \times 10^8 = 9.88 \times 10^9 \ J$

We use this energy to convert steam into vapors.

$Q = \Delta E$

$Q = \Delta E = mc (T_{f} - T{i})\\T_{f} = \frac {\Delta E}{mc} + T_{i}\\ \\T_{f} = 100 + \frac{9.88 \times 10^{10}}{50 \times 1970}\\T_{f} = 100 + 10^8\\T_{f} = 10 ^{ \ 8} \ {^ \circ } C$

With this temperature, we can easily interpret that the vapors will be dissociated in hydrogen and oxygen particles.

Why would knowing the characteristics of circuits be important in designing electrical circuits?

zubka84 [21]

Well if you didn't you could make mistakes, which would lead ,in the best case, at a fail of the circuit , or if it goes out of control it could be dangerous

for example you have to know that the wires become hot and they loose their abbilitys as connecters(the hotter it will, the more energy you lose becouse the R will be bigger)
