Answer:

1) energy = 15.6 kWh, 2) total_cost = $ 2.03

Explanation:

1) The energy dissipated is the product of the power and the time of use In a month it was used t = 6.5 h and the power of the toaster is

P = 2400 W = 2,400 kW

energy = P t

energy = 2,400 6.5

energy = 15.6 kWh

using rounding to a decimal

energy = 15.6 kWh

2) The cost of energy is unit_cost = $ 0.13 / kWh

so the total cost

total_cost = energy unit_cost

total_cost = 15.6 0.13

total_cost = $ 2.028

rounding to two decimal places

total_cost = $ 2.03

A projectile is fired from the ground at a velocity of 30.0 m/s, 35.0 º from the horizontal. What is the maximum height the proj

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Vy = V sin theta = 30 * ,574 = 17.2 m/s

t1 = 17.2 / 9.8 = 1.76 sec to reach max height

Max height = 17.2 * 1.76 - 1/2 * 4.9 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

H = V t - 1/2 g t^2 = 1.2 * 9.8 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

Time to fall from zero speed to ground = rise time = 1.76 sec

Vx = V cos 35 = 24.6 m / sec horizontal speed

Time in air = 1.76 * 2 = 3.52 sec before returning to ground

S = 24.6 * 3.52 = 86.6 m

At a certain instant, the earth, the moon, and a stationary 1160 kg spacecraft lie at the vertices of an equilateral triangle wh

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

$W = 1.22 \times 10^9 J$

Explanation:

Initial potential energy of the given spacecraft is given as

$U = -\frac{GM_e m}{r} - \frac{GM_m m}{r}$

so we have

$U = - \frac{Gm}{r}(M_e + M_m)$

so we have

$M_e = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$M_m = 7.35 \times 10^{22} kg$

$m = 1160 kg$

$r = 3.84 \times 10^8 m$

$U = - \frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(1160)}{3.84 \times 10^8}(5.98 \times 10^{24} + 7.35 \times 10^{22})$

$U = -1.22 \times 10^9 J$

now total work done to move it to infinite is given

W = 0 - U

$W = 1.22 \times 10^9 J$

Which of these discoveries contradict components of Dalton’s atomic theory? Check all of the boxes that apply. Atoms contain sma

EastWind [94]

Explanation:

According to Dalton's atomic theory, all the atoms are individual, all the atoms of the same element are identical in properties and mass, the compound is formed from two or more kinds of the atoms, all the matter is made up of small atoms and the chemical reaction is a rearrangement of the atoms.

The discoveries which contradicts the components of Dalton's atomic theory from the given discoveries are:

Nuclear reactions can change an atom of one element into an atom of another element.

Atoms of a given element can have different numbers of neutrons.

Atoms contain smaller particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
