What is the average power consumption in watts of an appliance that uses 5.00 KW.h of energy per day?

1 answer:

3 0

(A) power = 0.208 kW = 208 watts
(B) energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

Explanation:
energy consumed per day = 5 kWh
(a) find the power consumed in a day
1 day = 24 hours
power = \frac{energy}{time}
power = \frac{5}{24}
power = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

(b) find the energy consumed in a year
assuming it is not a leap year and number of days = 365 days
1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds
energy = power x time
energy = 208 x 31,536,000
energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

How many moons does Venus have?

Gennadij [26K]

The answer is no moons at all. That's right, Venus (and the planet Mercury) are the only two planets that don't havea single natural moon orbiting them. Figuring out why is one question keeping astronomers busy as they study the Solar System.

The diameter of a copper atom is approximately 2.28e-10 m. The massof one mole of copper is 64 grams. Assume that the atoms area

KIM [24]

1) Mass of one copper atom: $1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

2) There are $9.33\cdot 10^{24}$ atoms in the cube

3) Mass of the cubical block: 992 kg

Explanation:

We are told here that the mass of one mole of copper is

$M=64 g$

for

$n=1 mol$ (number of moles)

We also know that the number of atoms inside 1 mole of substance is equal to Avogadro number:

$N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}$

This means that $N_A$ atoms of copper have a mass of M = 64 g. Therefore, we can find the mass of one copper atom by dividing the total mass by the avogadro number:

$m=\frac{M}{N_A}=\frac{64}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}}=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

We are told that the diameter of a copper atom is

$d=2.28\cdot 10^{-10} m$

We can assume that the atoms are arranged in a cube, and that they are all attached to each other; so the side of the cube can be written as size of one atom multiplied by the number of atom per side:

$L=Nd$
