Answer:

P max = 1000 pa

P min = 200 pa

Explanation:

P = F/A

pressure will be maximum when surface gets minimum. so to find the maximum amount of pressure we need to calculate the minimum surface. it is 2cm×5cm = 10cm² = 0.001m² . then we have:

P = 1 / 0.001 = 1000 pa

to find minimum pressure the surface that must be chosen is 10cm×5cm = 50cm² = 0.005m² .

P = 1 / 0.005 = 200 pa

A computer is connected across a 110 V power supply. The computer dissipates 123 W of power in the form of electromagnetic radia
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

81.3ohms

Explanation:

Resistance is known to provide opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit.

Power dissipated by the computer is expressed as;

Power = current (I) × Voltage(V)

P = IV... (1)

Note that from ohms law, V = IR

I = V/R ... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1, we will have;

P = (V/R)×V

P = V²/R.. (3)

Given source voltage = 100V, Power dissipated = 123W

To get resistance R of the computer, we will substitute the given value into equation 3 to have

123 = 100²/R

R = 100²/123

R = 10,000/123

R = 81.3ohms

The resistance of the computer is 81.3ohms

A woman drives 200 miles west and then turns south and drives 375 miles. Her trip takes her 11.75 hrs. What is the woman's avera
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The woman's average velocity during the trip is 36.2 miles/hour.

Explanation:

Velocity can be define as the displacement of an object per time. It is a vector quantity, and measured in m/s.

i.e velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

From the given question,

Displacement = \sqrt{200^{2} + 375^{2}  }

                       = \sqrt{40000+140625}

                       = \sqrt{180625}

                       = 425

The displacement of woman is 425 miles.

velocity = \frac{425}{11.75}

             = 36.1702 miles/hour

The woman's average velocity during the trip is 36.2 miles/hour.

Can someone please help
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Acceleration of that planet is 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Given:

initial speed of hammer = 0 \frac{m}{s}

time = 1 s

distance = 15 m

To find:

Acceleration due to gravity = ?

Formula used:

Distance covered by hammer is given by,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^{2}

s = distance

u = initial speed of hammer

t = time taken by hammer to reach ground

a = acceleration

Solution:

Distance covered by hammer is given by,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^{2}

s = distance

u = initial speed of hammer

t = time taken by hammer to reach ground

a = acceleration

u = 0

t = 1 s

s = 15 m

a = g

Thus substituting these value in above equation.

15 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} g 1^{2}

g = 15 × 2

g = 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Thus, acceleration of that planet is 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Suppose that in a lightning flash the potential difference between a cloud and the ground is 1.0*109 V and the quantity of charg
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J, b) v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The potential energy is:

U_{e} = Q \cdot \Delta V

U_{e} = (30\,C)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{9}\,V)

U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J

b) Maximum final speed:

U_{e} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot U_{e}}{m} }

The final speed is:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (3 \times 10^{10}\,J)}{1000\,kg} }

v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

How can energy be converted from one form to another?
Ket [755]
By heat or change in matter,
there can be different reactions that create heat (like exothermic or endothermic reactions)
or movement can give off energy too,
energy is basically just heat
