A lightbulb has a power of 100 W and is used for 4 hours. A microwave has a power of 1200 W and is used for 5 minutes. How much

energy is used by the lightbulb? How much energy is used by the microwave? The lightbulb has an efficiency of 1.8%. How much heat energy does the lightbulb produce in 4 hours?

Answer:

a. E=1440KJ

b. E=360KJ

c. E=1.8 J

Explanation:

I have the power (Watts) is expressed as Energy (Joules) / Time (seconds), also I have to1hour * \frac{60min}{1hour}*\frac{60s}{1min}\\1h=3600s

so, for the lightbulb

100W= \frac{Energy}{3600s*4}\\Energy=100W*14400s\\ E=1440000J =1440KJ

Analogously, for the microwave

1200W= \frac{Energy}{60s*5}\\Energy=1200W*300s\\ E=360000J =360KJ

Now, I have to express the efficiency as Heat energy / power * 100 so1.8= \frac{Heat Energy}{100W}*100\\Heat Energy=1.8J

Done

Elabora una tabla, como la del ejemplo, con los resultados obtenidos en los test que desarrollaste en actividades anteriores. Lu
rodikova [14]

Explanation:

Clear rendering reads;

"Make a table, like the one in the example, with the results obtained in the tests you carried out in previous activities. Then answer: What do these results indicate regarding your physical condition and how do they relate to your health? From your answers, consider the challenge of improving your physical condition by maintaining or improving your exercise routine or permanent practice of physical activity".

So the incomplete text above it seems you've been instructed to perform an experiment and then state your result/analysis.

The cable holding a 2125 kg elevator has a maximum strength of 21,750 N. What is the maximum upward acceleration the cable can g
vivado [14]

Answer:

10.23m/s^2

Explanation:

GIven data

mass of elevator = 2125 kg

Force= 21,750 N

Required

The maximum acceleration upward

F= ma

a= F/m

a=21,750/2125

a= 10.23m/s^2

Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2

A 1000 kg car moving a 10 m/s collides with a stationary 2000 kg truck. The two vehicles interlock as a result of the collision.
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.

In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.

(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}

where:

m₁ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the car = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the truck = 0 (stationary)

v₃ = velocity of the two vehicles after the collision [m/s].

Now replacing:

(1000*10)+(2000*0)=(1000+2000)*v_{3}\\v_{3}=3.33[m/s]
