Answer:

C = 16544.35\, USD

Explanation:

The annual electricity cost is:

C = (\frac{1}{0.93} )\cdot(75\, h.p.)\cdot(0.746\, kW)\cdot(2500\,h)\cdot(\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )\cdot(\frac{1\,kWh}{3600\,kJ} )\cdot (0.11\,\frac{USD}{kWh} )

C = 16544.35\, USD

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity
dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.

Harry and ron set up this experiment with a glider, whose mass they have measured to be 565 g, and seven washers hanging from th
svetlana [45]
Let's call m=565~g=0.565~kg the mass of the glider and m_w=7\cdot12~g =84~g=0.084~kg the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string. 
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:
F_{net} = m_w g
For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is m+m_w) and the acceleration a:
F_{net}=(m+m_w)a
So, if we equalize the two equations, we get
m_w g = (m+m_w)a
and from this we can find the acceleration:
a= \frac{m_w g}{(m+m_w)} = \frac{0.084~kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{(0.565~kg+0.084~kg)}=1.27~m/s^2

You are packing for a trip to another star. During the journey, you will be traveling at 0.99c. You are trying to decide whether
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Do neither of these things ( c )

Explanation:

For length contraction : Is calculated considering the observer moving at a speed that is relative the object at rest applying this formula

L = (l) \sqrt{1 -\frac{v^{2} }{c^{2} } }

where l = Measured distance from object at rest, L =  contracted measured in relation to the observer , v = speed of clock , c = speed of light

you will do neither of these things because before you can make such decisions who have to view the object in this case yourself from a different frame from where you are currently are, if not your length and width will not change hence you can't make such conclusions/decisions .

Find the mass of an object on planet F if its weight is 650 N (g = 13m/s^2)
Andrew [12]

Answer:

the object's mass is 50 kg

Explanation:

We use Newton's second law to solve for the mass:

F = m * a , then   m = F / a

In our case, the acceleration is the gravitational acceleration on the planet, and the force is the weight of the object on the planet. So we get:

m = w / a = 650 N / 13 m/s^2 = 50 kg

Then, the object's mass is 50 kg.
