Q. 1 MWH is equal to ------- joules a.3.610^10 b.3.610^6 c.3.6*10^9 d.3.6

1 answer:

5 0

Correct option is B
1 kWh is equal to 3.6 × 10

1 Watt-sec is a Joule a watt expended for a second.
Because there’s 3600 seconds in an hour,
then 3600 Ws = 1 Wh = 3600 Joules = 3.6 kJ
so 1000 Wh = 1 kWh = 1000 × 3.6 kJ = 3.6 MJ = 3.6 × 10

Derive an expression for the energy needed to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.Ignorin

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy on the surface of the earth

= - GMm/ R

Potential at height h

= - GMm/ (R+h)

Potential difference

= GMm/ R - GMm/ (R+h)

= GMm ( 1/R - 1/ R+h )

= GMmh / R (R +h)

This will be the energy needed to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.

Extra energy is needed to get the same object into orbit at height h

= Kinetic energy of the orbiting object at height h

= 1/2 x potential energy at height h

= 1/2 x GMm / ( R + h)

A 120 g, 8.0-cm-diameter gyroscope is spun at 1000 rpm and allowed to precess. What is the precession period?

dolphi86 [110]

To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

$I = MR^2$
