A redshift reveals how an object in space (star/planet/galaxy) is moving compared to us. It lets astronomers measure a distance for the most distant (and therefore oldest) objects in our universe

A 3 kg rock sits on a 0.8 meter ledge. If it is pushed off, how fast will it be going at the bottom?
andrey2020 [161]

As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .

   Potential energy =      (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

                                       (3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .

If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.

   Kinetic energy =                                          (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                                 23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²

Divide each side by  1.5 kg :     23.52 m²/s² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:    speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) =  <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)

The molecules will heat up and move faster, some evaporating and turning to gas, the toy boat will heat up if made of conducting materials but otherwise unchanged. The water will also start to boil.

An electric furnace is to melt 40 kg of aluminium/hour. The initial temperature of aluminium is 32°C. Given that aluminium has s
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Part a)

P = 13.93 kW

Part b)

R = 8357.6 Cents

Explanation:

Part A)

heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

Q = ms\Delta T + mL

here we have

Q = 40(950)(680 - 32) + 40(450 \times 10^3)

Q = 24624 kJ + 18000 kJ

Q = 42624 kJ

Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour

so power required to melt is given by

P = \frac{Q}{t}

P = \frac{42624}{3600} kW

P = 11.84 kW

Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

P = \frac{11.84}{0.85} = 13.93 kW

Part B)

Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours

Energy = power \times time

Energy = 13.93 kW\times 30 h

Energy = 417.9 kWh

now the total cost of energy consumption is given as

R = P \times 20 \frac{Cents}{kWh}

R = 417.9 kWh\times  20 \frac{cents}{kWh}

R = 8357.6 Cents
