A 40 Watt lightbulb is on for 3 minutes. How many joules of work does it do?

Physics

1 answer:

ella [17]2 years ago

6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Power (p)= 40 watt

time (t)= 3 minutes = 180 seconds

Energy (E)= ?

we know

P = E/t

40 = E / 180

E = 7200 Joules

Therefore it does 7200 joules of work.

hope it helps :)

If the radio waves transmitted by a radio station have a frequency of 76.5 mhz, what is the wavelength of the waves, in meters?

____ [38]

Given: Velocity of light c = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

Frequency f = 7.65 x 10⁷/s

Required: Wavelength λ = ?

Formula: λ = c/f

λ = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s/7.65 x 10⁷/s

λ = 3.92 m

In a lab experiment, a student is trying to apply the conservation of momentum. Two identical balls, each with a mass of 1.0 kg,

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Second Trial satisfy principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

Given mass of ball A and ball B $=\ 1.0\ Kg.$

Let mass of ball $A$ and $B\ is\ m$

Final velocity of ball $A\ is\ v_1$

Final velocity of ball $B\ is\ v_2$

initial velocity of ball $A\ is\ u_1$

Initial velocity of ball $B\ is\ u_2$

Momentum after collision $=mv_1+mv_2$

Momentum before collision $= mu_1+mu_2$

Conservation of momentum in a closed system states that, moment before collision should be equal to moment after collision.

Now, $mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2$

Plugging each trial in this equation we get,

First Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(1)+1(-2)=1(-2)+1(-1)\\1-2=-2-1\\-1=-3$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

Second Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1.5)=1(-.5)+1(-.5)\\.5-1.5=-.5-.5\\-1=-1$

moment before collision $=$ moment after collision

Third Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(2)+1(1)=1(1)+1(-2)\\2+1=1-2\\3=-1$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

Fourth Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1)=1(1.5)+1(-1.5)\\.5-1=1.5-1.5\\-.5=0$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

We can see only Trial- 2 shows the conservation of momentum in a closed system.
