Answer:

Formula  E(J) = P(W) × t(s)

3600 Seconds in an hour

7200 seconds in two hours.

watts = 100

100 x 7200 = 720000

Explanation:

Watts to joules calculation

The energy E in joules (J) is equal to the power P in watts (W), times the time period t in seconds (s):

E(J) = P(W) × t(s)

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another. These conversions can be shown in Sankey diagrams. Efficiency is a measure of how much useful energy is converted. Attachment 1

Modern energy-saving lamps and LEDs (light-emitting diodes) work in a different way. They transfer a greater proportion of electrical energy as light energy. Attachment 2

From the diagram, you can see that much less electrical energy is transferred, or 'wasted', as heat energy from the energy-saving lamp. It's more efficient than the filament lamp.

Calculating efficiency

The efficiency of a device, such as a lamp, can be calculated:

efficiency = useful energy out ÷ total energy in (for a decimal efficiency)

or

efficiency = (useful energy out ÷ total energy in) × 100 (for a percentage efficiency)

The efficiency of the filament lamp is 10 ÷ 100 = 0.10 (or 10%). This means that 10 per cent of the electrical energy supplied is transferred as light energy (90 per cent is transferred as heat energy).

The efficiency of the energy-saving lamp is 75 ÷ 100 = 0.75 (or 75 per cent). This means that 75 per cent of the electrical energy supplied is transferred as light energy (25 per cent is transferred as heat energy).

Note that the efficiency of a device will always be less than 100 per cent. Occasionally the power is shown in W instead of the energy in J. The equations are the same – just substitute power for energy:

efficiency = useful power out ÷ total power in (for a decimal efficiency)

or

efficiency = (useful power out ÷ total power in) × 100 (for a percentage efficiency)

This is the Sankey diagram for a typical energy-saving lamp:

you can find the resistance using this formula

R = V ÷ I    

where; V is the potential difference in volts, V

I is the current in amperes (amps), A

R is the resistance in ohms, Ω

Given;

V = 230V

Power, P = 100W

time, t = 2hrs = 7200s

from,

P = IV

and Energy, E= Pt

E = 100*7200

E = 720000 Joules

E = 720KJ

Doubly ionized lithium Li2+ (Z = 3) and triply ionized beryllium Be3+ (Z = 4) each emit a line spectrum. For a certain series of
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom has been used by other atoms with a single electric charge by changing the number of charges by the charge of the new atom (atomic number)

      E_{n}= k e² / 2a₀ (1 /n²)

      ao = h'² / k m e²               h' = h/2πi

For another atom with a single electron in the last layer

      a₀ ’= h’² / k m (Ze)²  

      a₀ ’= a₀ / Z²

Therefore, when replacing in the equation

      E_{n} = - Z²  Eo/n²

     E₀ = 13,606 eV

The transition occurs when the electron stops from one level to another

         E_{n} -  E_{m} = Z² E₀ (1 / n² - 1 / m²) = Z² ΔE

Let's relate this expression to the wavelength

       c = λ f

      E = h f

      E = h c /λ

      h c / λ = Z² ΔE

     λ = 1 / Z² (hc / ΔE)

     λ = 1 / Z² λ_hydrogen

Let's apply this last equation to our case

Lithium Z = 3

     E_{n} = - 9 Eo / n²

     

      40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

Beryllium Z = 4

      λ = 1/16 λ_hydrogen

Let's write our two equations is and solve

     40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 1/ 16 λ_hydrogen

      40.5 10⁻⁹ = 1/9 (16 \lambda_{Be} )

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 40.5 9/16

  tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

A student throws a small rock straight upwards. The rock rises to its highest point and then falls back down. How does the speed
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

we assume that it starts with a velocity of 10m/s. At 2m height above ground level, its velocity decreases at 3m above ground level

for its way down the velocity at 3m on its way down is more than its velocity at 2m on its way down.

Explanation:

A student throws a small rock straight upwards. The rock rises to its highest point and then falls back down. How does the speed of the rock at 2m on the way down compare with its speed at 2m on the way up?

It decreases in speed on its way down and increases in speed on its way down.

it decreases in speed on its way up because the the vertical motion is against the earths gravitational pull on an object to the earth's center

.It increases in speed on his way down because its under the influence of gravity

from newton's equation of motion we can check by

using V^2=u^2+2as

we assume that it starts with a velocity of 10m/s. At 2m height above ground level, its velocity decreases at 3m above ground level

for its way down the velocity at 3m on its way down is more than its velocity at 2m on its way down.

A truck is carrying a steel beam of length 13.0 m on a freeway. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

emf= 9.88 \times 10^{-3} T

Explanation:

Given:

  • Length of the beam, l=13\,m
  • speed of the beam, v=20\,m.s^{-1}
  • magnitude of the vertical magnetic field, B=38\times 10^{-6} T

According to the Faraday's law the emf induced in a rod passing transversely through a magnetic field is given as:

emf= l.v.B

emf=13\times 20\times 38\times 10^{-6}

emf= 9.88 \times 10^{-3} T
