Answer:

170 W

Explanation:

Applying

P = VI.................... Equation 1

Where P = Power generated in watt, V = Voltage supplied to the circuit, I = Current running through the circuit.

From the question,

Given: V = 17 V, I = 10 A

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (17×10)

P = 170 Watt.

Hence the power generated is 170 W.

The right option is A. 170 W

A bulldozer does 4,500 J of work to push a mound of soil to the top of a ramp that is 15 m high. The ramp is at an angle of 35°

spin [16.1K]

Answer

Force = 170 N

Explanation

First find the distance (d) travelled by the bulldozer.

Sin 35 = 15/d

d = 15/(sin 35)

= 26.15m

Now;

work done = force × distance.

4500 J = force × 26.15

dividing both sides by 26.15,

Force = 4500/26.15

= 172.07 N

Answer to two significant figures = 170 N

The flow of air caused by blend in the blank creates distant blank on earth surface

Mamont248 [21]

Question:

The flow of air caused by _____ and the Coriolis effect creates distinct _____ on Earth's surface.

Answer:

Differences in heating
Wind patterns

Explanation:

The flow of air caused by variations in the rate at which the different parts are heated up as well as the Coriolis effect combine to create distinct wind patterns on Earth's surface.

The Coriolis Effect is used to describe a "force" that causes things (like objects, planes, air currents) traveling long distances around the Earth to appear to bend as they move rather than in a straight line.

A 1.30-kg object is held 1.10 m above a relaxed, massless vertical spring with a force constant of 315 N/m. The object is droppe

pshichka [43]

Answer:

0.345m

Explanation:

Let x (m) be the length that the spring is compress. If we take the point where the spring is compressed as a reference point, then the distance from that point to point where the ball is held is x + 1.1 m.

And so the potential energy of the object at the held point is:

$E_p = mgh$

where m = 1.3 kg is the object mass, g = 10m/s2 is the gravitational acceleration and h = x + 1.1 m is the height of the object with respect to the reference point

$E_p = 1.3 * 10 * (x + 1.1) = 13(x + 1.1) = 13x + 14.3 J$

According to the conservation law of energy, this potential energy is converted to spring elastic energy once it's compressed

$E_p = E_k = kx^2/2 = 13x + 14.3$

where k = 315 is the spring constant and x is the compressed length

$315x^2 = 26x + 28.6$

$315x^2 - 26x - 28.6 = 0$

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$x = \frac{26 \pm \sqrt{26^2 - 4*(-28.6)*315}}{2*315}$

$x = \frac{26 \pm 191.6}{630}$

x = 0.345 m or x = -0.263 m

Since x can only be positive we will pick the 0.345m

An air compressor takes normal air and pushes more and more of it in a rigid steel tank. The number of gas particles in the tank

erik [133]

Answer:

C. It decreases

Explanation:

The pressure law states that for a constant volume of gas in a sealed container the temperature of the gas is directly proportional to its pressure. This can be easily understood by visualizing the particles of gas in the container moving with a greater energy when the temperature is increased.

A common example is cooking gas when refilled, there is a perceptible change in the temperature of the cylinder.
