256 kPa because p-guage + p-absolute + p-atmospheric = 256
Answer:
b) 2ft/s
Explanation:
A scalar has only magintude, not direction
6.2m, 3kg, and -100 o C are all scalars because they only have magnitude.
2ft/s is not a scalar because it has a direction.
Answer:
Gwen’s assumption of asteroid hit as long term change is incorrect. Asteroid hit is not a long term change, instead, it is a short term change.
Explanation:
Examples of short term changes are drought, flood, volcanic eruption, etc. A short term change occurs quickly and can immediately affect organisms but it doesn’t become a reason for species extinction. The effects of a short term change don’t prevail over a long span of time.
Examples of long term changes are ice age, global warming, deforestation, etc. Unlike a short term change, it takes time but the consequences are far-reaching. It can lead to species extinction.
In this question, asteroid hit is a quick and unexpected hazard, unlike the slow long term environmental changes.
Answer:
(a) 43.2 kC
(b) 0.012V kWh
(c) 0.108V cents
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- i = current flow = 3 A
- t = time interval for which the current flow =

- V = terminal voltage of the battery
- R = rate of energy = 9 cents/kWh
<u>Assume:</u>
- Q = charge transported as a result of charging
- E = energy expended
- C = cost of charging
Part (a):
We know that the charge flow rate is the electric current flow through a wire.

Hence, 43.2 kC of charge is transported as a result of charging.
Part (b):
We know the electrical energy dissipated due to current flow across a voltage drop for a time interval is given by:

Hence, 0.012V kWh is expended in charging the battery.
Part (c):
We know that the energy cost is equal to the product of energy expended and the rate of energy.

Hence, 0.108V cents is the charging cost of the battery.
