The Sun is expected to undergo hydrogen fusion for a total of _____ years. a million 10 million a billion 10 billion 100 billion

Elanso [62]

The correct answer is 10 billion years. The Sun is expected to undergo hydrogen fusion for a total of 10 billion years. The Sun generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen and produces helium nucleus. It fuses 620 million metric tons every second.

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,

andrew-mc [135]

Energy = (power) x (time)

-- For the toaster:

Power = 1.4 kW = 1,400 watts

Time = 5.4 minutes = 324 seconds

Energy = (1,400 W) x (324 s) = 453,600 Joules

-- For the CFL bulb:

Power = 11 watts

Time = 10.5 hours = 37,800 seconds

Energy = (11 W) x (37,800 s) = 415,800 Joules

-- The toaster uses energy at 127 times the rate of the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses energy at 0.0079 times the rate of the toaster.

-- The toaster is used for 0.0086 times as long as the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb is used for 116.7 times as long as the toaster.

-- The toaster uses 9.1% more energy than the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses 8.3% less energy than the toaster.

A stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. What is the spe

KIM [24]

Answer: V = 15 m/s

Explanation:

As stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. The observed frequency the car will be experiencing will be addition of the two frequency. That is,

F = 2.1 × 10^10 + 1030 = 2.100000103×10^10Hz

Using doppler effect formula

F = C/ ( C - V) × f

Where

F = observed frequency

f = source frequency

C = speed of light = 3×10^8

V = speed of the car

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

2.100000103×10^10 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 -V) × 2.1×10^10

2.100000103×10^10/2.1×10^10 = 3×108/(3×10^8 - V)

1.000000049 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 - V)

Cross multiply

300000014.7 - 1.000000049V = 3×10^8

Collect the like terms

1.000000049V = 14.71429

Make V the subject of formula

V = 14.71429/1.000000049

V = 14.7 m/s

The speed of the car is 15 m/s approximately.

A sprinter set a high school record in track and field, running 200.0 m in 20.6 s . what is the average speed of the sprinter in

Paraphin [41]

Answer : The average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr

Solution :

Average velocity : It is defined as the distance traveled by the time taken.

Formula used for average velocity :

$v_{av}=\frac{d}{t}$

where,

$v_{av}$ = average velocity

d = distance traveled = 200 m

t = time taken = 20.6 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the average velocity of the sprinter.

$v_{av}=\frac{200m}{20.6s}\times \frac{3600}{1000}=34.95Km/hr$

conversion :

(1 Km = 1000m)

(1 hr = 3600 s)

Therefore, the average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr
