Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are examples of rapid events that are caused by the movement of Earth's _______. Mountain bui

andrew11 [14]

The correct answer is - C. Crustal plates, crustal plates.

The movement of the crustal plates of the Earth is the reason why the geologic processes are occurring on our planet. With their movement, the crustal plates manage to create lot of pressure, open up gaps for the magma from the mantle, as well as make adjustments deeper into the ground.

Because of the adjustments deep into the ground, or rather the crust, lot of force is released, manifested as strong and very quick vibrations, better known as earthquakes.

The gaps that are opening between the plates let the magma reach the surface, thus enabling the volcanic activities on the planet.

The pressure from the plates' collision makes the land lift up slowly, and over time a mountain range starts to form because of the continuous lifting up of the area.

If the total resistance of an air conditioner is 25.4 Ω and it is using energy at a rate of 2083 W, on what voltage is it operat

strojnjashka [21]

One of the formulas for calculating electrical power is

Power = (voltage)² / (resistance)

Since this problem wants us to find the voltage, let's
re-arrange the formula.
Multiply each side by (resistance):

(Voltage)² = (power) x (resistance)

Take the square root of each side:

Voltage = √ (power x resistance)

THERE's the formula we can use to find the voltage for this problem.

Voltage = √ (2,083 W x 25.4 Ω)

Voltage = √ (52,908.2 W-Ω )

Voltage = 230 volts

A two-liter bottle of your favorite beverage has just been removed from the trunk of your car. The temperature of the beverage i

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

a) 209.3 kilojoules must be removed from two liter of beverage, b) A rate of heat removal of 1.163 kilowatts is required to cool down 10 2-liter bottles, c) Cooling 10 2-L bottles during 30 minutes costs 4.9 cents.

Explanation:

a) How much heat energy must be removed from your two liters of beverage?

At first we suppose that the beverage has the mass and specific heat of water and that there are no energy interactions between the bottle and its surroundings.

From the First Law of Thermodynamics and definition of sensible heat, we get that amount of removed heat ( $Q$ ), measured in kilojoules, is represented by the following formula:

$Q = \rho \cdot V\cdot c\cdot (T_{o}-T_{f})$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$\rho$ - Density of the beverage, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$V$ - Volume of the bottle, measured in cubic meters.

$c$ - Specific heat of water, measured in kilojoules per kilogram-Celsius.

$T_{o}$ , $T_{f}$ - Initial and final temperatures, measured in Celsius.

If we know that $\rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $V = 2\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}$ , $c = 4.186\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $T_{o} = 35\,^{\circ}C$ and $T_{f} = 10\,^{\circ}C$ , then:

$Q = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot (2\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3})\cdot \left(4.186\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right) \cdot (35\,^{\circ}C-10\,^{\circ}C)$

$Q = 209.3\,kJ$

209.3 kilojoules must be removed from two liter of beverage.

b) You are having a party and need to cool 10 of these two-liter bottles in one-half hour. What rate of heat removal, in kW, is required?

The total amount of heat that must be removed from 10 2-L bottles is:

$Q_{T} = 10\cdot (209.3\,kJ)$

$Q_{T} = 2093\,kJ$

If we suppose that bottles are cooled at constant rate, then, rate of heat removal is determined by this formula:

$\dot Q = \frac{Q_{T}}{\Delta t}$ (Eq. 2)

Where:

$Q_{T}$ - Total heat, measured in kilojoules.

$\Delta t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$\dot Q$ - Rate of heat removal, measured in kilowatts.

If we know that $Q_{T} = 2093\,kJ$ and $\Delta t = 1800\,s$ , we find that rate of heat removal is:

$\dot Q = \frac{2093\,kJ}{1800\,s}$

$\dot Q = 1.163\,kW$

A rate of heat removal of 1.163 kilowatts is required to cool down 10 2-liter bottles.

c) Assuming that your refrigerator can accomplish this and that electricity costs 8.5 cents per kW-hr, how much will it cost to cool these 10 bottles (in $)?

A kilowatt-hour equals 3600 kilojoules. The electricity cost is equal to the removal heat of 10 bottles ( $Q_{T}$ ), measured in kilojoules, and unit electricity cost ( $c$ ), measured in US dollars per kilowatt-hour. That is:

$C = c\cdot Q_{T}$
