In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalarquantity. In the International System of Units, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the condenser steam engine. Another common and traditional measure is horsepower (comparing to the power of a horse). Being the rate of work, the equation for power can be written:

P = E/t
P = F·v
P = V·I
P = T·ω
As a physical concept, power requires both a change in the physical system and a specified time in which the change occurs. This is distinct from the concept of work, which is only measured in terms of a net change in the state of the physical system. The same amount of work is done when carrying a load up a flight of stairs whether the person carrying it walks or runs, but more power is needed for running because the work is done in a shorter amount of time.
The climate factor that is responsible for the amount of snow on Mt. Kilimanjaro is high elevation. In the concept of precipitation, as an air mass rises and cools, its capacity to hold water vapor lessens. This vapor condenses into water droplets, forming clouds. Terrain with high elevation attracts such formations, bringing with them cloudiness, rainfall, and snowfall.
Answer: 0.9264 kg
Explanation: [I'll use "cc" for cubic centimeter, instead of cm^3.
The volume is 6cm*4cm*2cm = 48 cm^3 (cc).
Density of Au is 19.3 g/cc
Mass of gold = (48 cc)*(9.3 g/cc) = 926.4 grams Au
1 kg = 1,000 g
(926.4 grams Au)*(1 kg/1,000 g) = 0.9264 kg, 0.93 kg to 2 sig figs
At gold's current price of $57,500/kg, this bar is worth $53,268. Keep it hidden from your lab partner (and instructor).
Answer:
265 J
Explanation:
where KE is kinetic energy, PE is potential energy, m is the mass of an object, v is the speed, h is the height and g is acceleration due to gravity.
Substituting 19.7 Kg for mass, 0.934 for h, 2.93 for v and 9.81 for g then
Answer:
Heat energy
Explanation:
Electrons are flowing through the circuit, they pass through a resistor, in this case a light bulb. The energy is then transformed into light and heat energy.
