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

An ideal monatomic gas initially has a temperature of 300 K and a pressure of 5.79 atm. It is to expand from volume 420 cm3 to v

maxonik [38]

Answer:

a) The final pressure is 1.68 atm.

b) The work done by the gas is 305.3 J.

Explanation:

a) The final pressure of an isothermal expansion is given by:

$T = \frac{PV}{nR}$

$T_{i} = T_{f}$

$\frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{nR} = \frac{P_{f}V_{f}}{nR}$

Where:

$P_{i}$ : is the initial pressure = 5.79 atm

$P_{f}$ : is the final pressure =?

$V_{i}$ : is the initial volume = 420 cm³

$V_{f}$ : is the final volume = 1450 cm³

n: is the number of moles of the gas

R: is the gas constant

$P_{f} = \frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{V_{f}} = \frac{5.79 atm*420 cm^{3}}{1450 cm^{3}} = 1.68 atm$

Hence, the final pressure is 1.68 atm.

b) The work done by the isothermal expansion is:

$W = P_{i}V_{i}ln(\frac{V_{f}}{V_{i}}) = 5.79 atm*\frac{101325 Pa}{1 atm}*420 cm^{3}*\frac{1 m^{3}}{(100 cm)^{3}}ln(\frac{1450 cm^{3}}{420 cm^{3}}) = 305.3 J$

Therefore, the work done by the gas is 305.3 J.

I hope it helps you!

If the archerfish spits its water 30 degrees from the horizontal aiming at an insect 1.2 m above the surface of the water, how f

Burka [1]

Answer:

The speed is $v = 9.8 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question w are told that

The angle made is $\theta = 30^o$

The distance above the surface of the water is $h_{max} = 1.2 \ m$

The value of $g = 10 \ m/s^2$

The maximum height attained by the fish is mathematically evaluate as

$h_{max} = \frac{v^2 sin ^2 \theta }{2g }$

Making v which is the speed of the fish the subject of the formula

$v = \sqrt{ \frac{2gh_{max}}{ sin^2 \theta } }$

substituting values

$v = \sqrt{ \frac{2*10 *1.2 }{ [sin (30)]^2 } }$

$v = 9.8 \ m/s$

Difference between duracell and interstate golf cart batteries

weeeeeb [17]

Duracell batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered between the reaction of Magnesium and Zinc, occurring in basic conditions (alkaline battery). This type of reaction has a precise output of 1.5 volts, and looks like this:

Zn + 2MnO2 ➡️ ZnO + Mn2O3

It’s not rechargeable.

Golf Cart Batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered by the reaction between Lead and Sulfuric Acid (Lead-Acid battery). This type of reaction occurs on larger scales than an alkaline battery, and thus can generate a variety of powers depending on how many instruments are present within the battery. The reaction looks like this:

PbO2 + Pb + 2H2SO4 ➡️ 2PbSO4 + H2O

This is a rechargeable cell, but is rather prone to discharging by the environment and surroundings of the battery.

Can someone please help me out with this quiz will give brainiest and thanks to people

Virty [35]

Answer:

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

1. Energy transferred = 144 Joules.

2. The unit of potential difference, volts can also be described as Joules per Coulombs.

3. Current, I = 6.945 Amperes.

Explanation:

Part A.

Given the following data;

Current, I = 1.2A

Time, t = 2 minutes

Potential difference, V = 12 volts.

To find the energy transfered;

Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Energy transferred = (1.2 * 2) * 12

Energy transferred = 2.4 * 12

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

Part B.

1. Given the following data;

Charge, Q = 24C

Potential difference = 6V

To find the energy transferred;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

E = 24 * 6

E = 144 Joules.

2. Since we know that, Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

$Potential \; difference = \frac {Energy \; transferred}{Charged \; moved}$

The units of energy is Joules while the unit of the quantity of charge moved is Coulomb.

Therefore, the unit of potential difference becomes Joules per Coulomb.

3. Given the following data;

Potential difference = 18V

Energy transferred = 500J

Time, t = 4 minutes.

To find the current;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

500 = Q*18

Q = 500/18

Q = 27.78C

But, Charge moved (Q) = current (I) * time (t)

Current, I = Q/t

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Current, I = 27.78/4

Current, I = 6.945 Amperes..
