Choose the correct statement concerning units of power or energy. a. A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power. b. A gigawatt (GW) is
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.

Explanation:

The power of an object is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

Here,

E is the energy required

t is time

The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.    

Option (1) :  A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.

Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.

Hence, the correct option is (d).

a missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0. It needs to hit a target 29,500m away in a 65.0 magnitude in 9.20s. What acceleration mu
Vesna [10]

Answer:

323 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

y₀ = 0 m

x = 29500 cos 65°

y = 29500 sin 65°

v₀x = 1810 cos 20°

v₀y = 1810 sin 20°

t = 9.20

Find:

ax, ay, θ

First, in the x direction:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

29500 cos 32° = 0 + (1810 cos 20°) (9.20) + ½ ax (9.20)²

25017 = 15648 + 42.32 ax

ax ≈ 221.4

And in the y direction:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

29500 sin 32° = 0 + (1810 sin 20°) (9.20) + ½ ay (9.20)²

15633 = 5695 + 42.32 ay

ay ≈ 234.8

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration is:

a² = ax² + ay²

a² = (221.4)² + (234.8)²

a ≈ 322.7

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is approximately 323 m/s².

A 68.5kg astronaut floating motionless next to the space station throws a 2.25kg tool away from her at 3.20m/s. With what speed
valkas [14]

Answer:

-0.105 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the astronaut, m(a) = 68.5 kg

Mass of the tool, m(t) = 2.25 kg

Speed of the tool after it is thrown, v(t) = 3.20 m/s

We know that momentum of a particle,

p = mv

See the attachment for calculations

Therefore, the speed is 0.105 m/s and it moves in the opposite direction.

a uniform electric field E=15 N/C points downwards. A particle with charge q=-0.15 C is placed in the electric field. What is th
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

2.25 N upwards

Explanation:

Answer:

800 N/C to the right

Explanation:

The equation that relates force on a charge, electric field and charge is

F=qE

where

F is the force acting on the charge

q is the charge

E is the electric field

In this problem, we have

E=15 N/C is the electric field

q=-0.15 C is the charge

Substituting into the formula, we find the force

F=(-0.15 C)(15 N/C)=-2.25 N

Concerning the direction:

- The electric field and the force have same directions if the charge is positive

- The electric field and the force have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Here the charge is negative, so the electric field has opposite direction to the force: therefore, it must be upwards.

During a spring tide, what is arrangement of the moon, the sun and the earth?.
Solnce55 [7]

Explanation:

Spring tides generally occur twice a month—during new and full moons, when the Earth, Sun, and Moon line up in a row. In this arrangement, the gravities of the Sun and Moon work together and have the strongest pull on Earth. This produces the largest difference between high and low tide.

Spring Tides

During full moon or new moon phases, the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon are maximized, producing very large ranges of tidal highs and lows called spring tides
