Determine the number of milliliters in a volume of 2.81 fluid ounces

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?

Scrat [10]

Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate. The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy. It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a rate of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your power is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger rate of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.

A child in a boat throws a 5.80-kg package out horizontally with a speed of 10.0 m/s. The mass of the child is 24.6kg and the ma

Sergio [31]

Answer:

-0.912 m/s

Explanation:

When the package is thrown out, momentum is conserved. The total momentum after is the same as the total momentum before, which is 0, since the boat was initially at rest.

$(m_c + m_b)v_b + m_pv_p = 0$

where $m_c = 24.6 kg, m_b = 39 kg, m_p = 5.8 kg$ are the mass of the child, the boat and the package, respectively. $, v_p = 10m/s, v_b$ are the velocity of the package and the boat after throwing.
