The total number of lamps is mathematically given as

N=24

<h3>What is the total number of lamps?</h3>

Question Parameters:

How many 60-watt lamps could be connected in parallel on a 15-amp, 120-volt

Generally, the equation for the Power  is mathematically given as

P=IV

Therefore

I=P/v

I=60/120

I=0.5A

Since the system does not exceed 80% of the rating

NI=I'(0.8)

N=15*0.8/0.5

N=24

In conclusion, the total number of lamps is

N=24

You measure the pressure of the four tires of your car each to be 35.0 pounds per square inch (psi). You then roll your car forw
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Weight of car = 36034.88 lb.ft/s²

Explanation:

We are told the pressure of the four tires of your car is; P = 35.0 psi

Also, the surface area of contact is; A = 32 in²

Thus;

Weight of tires = Pressure × Area

W_tires = 35 × 32

Weight_tires = 1120lb.

To get the weight of the car, we will multiply the tire weight by acceleration due to gravity.

It's value in ft/s² is g = 32.174 ft/s²

Thus;

Weight of car = 1120 × 32.174

Weight of car = 36034.88 lb.ft/s²

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer and Explanation:

The answer is <u>D) Alpha and Gamma</u>

Gamma radiation does not cause transmutations.

A <u>transmutation</u> is the <u>conversion of an atom of one element to an atom of another. This generally occurs through nuclear reacting.</u>

There are three main types of radiation: alpha, beta, and gamma. Both beta and alpha decay cause changes to the mass and atomic numbers. This results in a transmutation. Gamma radiation, however, does not.

Gamma radiation is the result of a gamma ray. In essence, the nucleus emits a high-energy proton. This is very penetrating and can only be stopped by aluminum, lead, soil, water, and concrete. This type of radiation does not change the element and, therefore, does not cause a transmutation.

What minimum heat is needed to bring 150 g of water at 20 ∘c to the boiling point and completely boil it away? the specific heat
AnnZ [28]

Try this solution:

if given m=0.15 kg; t₁=20 °C; t₂=100 °C; c=4190 J/(kg*C); q=226*10⁴ J/kg., then


Q=Q₁+Q₂,

where Q₁=cm(t₂-t₁) and Q₂=q*m.

Finally,

Q=cm(t₂-t₁)+qm;

Q=4190*0.15*80+2240000*0.15=386280 J=<u>386.28 kJ</u>.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The average speed would be 279.167 meters per second.

Explanation:

Speed ​​is the magnitude that expresses the variation in position of an object and as a function of time. In other words, speed is defined as the relationship established between the distance traveled and the time elapsed in the movement of a mobile.

Speed can be calculated using the following expression:

Speed=\frac{distance}{time}

In this case:

  • distance= 7,035 km
  • time= 7 hours

Since the required unit of speed is meter per second, then you convert from km to meters for the case of distance, and from hours to seconds for the case of time. So:

  • distance= 7,035 km= 7,035,000 m (being 1 km= 1,000 m)
  • time= 7 hours= 420 minutes= 25,200 seconds (being 1 hour=60 minutes and 1 minute=60 seconds)

Replacing in the definition of speed:

Speed=\frac{7,035,000 meters}{25,200 seconds}

Solving:

Speed=279.167\frac{meters}{ seconds}

Then, <u><em>the average speed would be 279.167 meters per second.</em></u>
