An object has a kinetic energy of 14 J and a mass of 17 kg , how fast is the object moving?

lisabon 2012 [21]

$v ^{2}$ = Joules ÷ (0.5×Kilograms)

14J ÷ 8.5 = 1.64705882

Remember, 1.64705882 = v², so we need to find the square root.

The square root of 1.64705882 is 1.283377894464448

Hope this helps!

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

Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power consumed by toaster oven, $P=1.4\ kW$

Time taken, t = 6 minutes = 0.1 hour

Energy used by toaster, $W_{toaster}=P\times t$

$W_{toaster}=1.4\ kW\times 0.1\ h=0.14\ kWh$

Similarly,

Power consumed by toaster oven, $P=11\ W$

Time taken, t = 9 minutes = 0.15 hour

Energy used by toaster, $W_{toaster}=P\times t$

$W_{toaster}=11\ W\times 0.15\ h=1.65\ Wh=0.0016\ kWh$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why do you like the full moon ?

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

<h3>The Moon brings perspective. Observing the Moon, and I mean really looking – sitting comfortably, or lying down on a patch of grass and letting her light fill your eyes, it's easy to be reminded of how ancient and everlasting the celestial bodies are. When I do this, it always puts my life into perspective.</h3>
