one deterrent to burglary is to leave your front porch light on all the time if your fixture contains the 23 watt compact fluorescent bulb at 120 volts and your local power utility cell's energy at ten cents per kilowatt-hour how much will it cost to leave the bulb on for the entire month

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost = 165.6 cents = $1.656

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the total energy consumed by the bulb in a month:

[tex]E=Pt\\[/tex]

where,

E = Energy Consumed = ?

P = power = 23 W

t = time = (1 month)(30 days/1 month)(24 h/1 day) = 720 h

Therefore,

[tex]E = (23\ W)(720\ h)\\E = 16560\ Wh = 16.56\ Kilowatt-hour[/tex]

Now, the cost will be:

[tex]Cost = P(Unit\ Cost)\\Cost = (16.56\ kilowatt-hour)(10\ cents/kilowatt-hour)[/tex]

Cost = 165.6 cents = $1.656

Calculate (a) the torque, (b) the energy, and (c) the average power required to accelerate Earth in 4.0 days from rest to its present angular speed about its axis. Take the rotational inertia of Earth to be 9.71 x 10 37 kg m2. (Note: let one day be 24 hours)

Answers

Answer:

Torque = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm

Energy = 3.54 x 10³³ J

Average power = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W

Explanation:

(a) Torque (τ) is the rotational effect of a given force.  

It is given by

τ = I x α          -------------(i)

Where;

I = rotational inertia of the object

α = angular acceleration of the object.

In this case, the object is the Earth. Therefore,

I = 9.71 x 10³⁷ kg m²

α = ω / t

Where;

ω = angular velocity of earth = 2π rad / day

Since

1 day = 24 hours and 1 hour = 3600seconds

1 day = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400seconds

=> ω = 2π rad / 86400seconds

=> ω = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s

t = 4 days = 4 x 24 x 3600 seconds = 345600 seconds

=> α = ω / t

=> α = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ / 345600

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵) / (3.456 x 10⁵)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵⁻⁵) / (3.456)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻¹⁰) / (3.456)

=> α = 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ rad/s²

Now substitute the values of I and α into equation (i)

τ = 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰

τ = 9.71 x 10²⁷ x 2.11

τ = 20.5 x 10²⁷ Nm

τ = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm

(ii) The energy (rotational energy) E is given by;

E = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x I x ω

E = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 7.29 × 10⁻⁵

E = 35.4 x 10³² J

E = 3.54 x 10³³ J

(iii) The average power P, is given by;

P = E / t

P = 3.54 x 10³³ / 345600

P = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W

Suppose that an electron and a positron collide head-on. Both have kinetic energy of 1.20 MeV and rest energy of 0.511 MeV. They produce two photons, which by conservation of momentum must have equal energy and move in opposite directions. What is the energy Ephoton of one of these photons

Answers

Answer:

E = 1.711 MeV

Explanation:

From the law of the conservation of energy:

[tex]K.E_{e}+K.E_p + E_{e}+E_{p} = 2 E[/tex]

where,

[tex]K.E_e=K.Ep=[/tex] the kinetic energy of positron and electron = 1.2 MeV

[tex]E_e=E_p =[/tex] Rest energy of the electron and the positron = 0.511 MeV

E = Energy of Photon = ?

Therefore,

[tex]1.2\ MeV + 1.2\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV = 2E\\\\E = \frac{3.422\ MeV}{2}\\\\[/tex]

E = 1.711 MeV

A block is given an initial velocity of 3.00 m/s up a frictionless incline of angle 20 degrees. How far up the incline does the block slide

Answers

Answer:

The distance moved by the block is 1.34 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the block, u = 3 m/s

angle of inclination, θ = 20⁰

The net horizontal force acting on the block;

∑Fx = - mgsinθ

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the constant acceleration of the block.

∑Fx = ma

- mgsinθ = ma

-gsinθ = a

Apply the following Kinematic equation, to determine how far up, the block moved before coming to rest.

[tex]V_f^2 = V_i^2 + 2a(x_f -x_i)\\\\0 = V_i^2 + 2[-gsin \theta(x_f-0)]\\\\0 = V_i^2 - 2gsin \theta(x_f)\\\\ 2gsin \theta(x_f) = V_i^2\\\\x_f = \frac{V_i^2}{2gsin \theta} = \frac{(3)^2}{2 \ \times \ 9.8 \ \times \ sin(20)} = 1.34 \ m[/tex]

Therefore, the distance moved by the block is 1.34 m

L₀ = 0.0022 m = 2.2 mm

Explanation:

Here, we will use the length contraction formula from the theory of relativity presented by Einstein:

[tex]L = L_o\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}[/tex]

where,

L = Relative length = 1.57 mm = 0.00157 m

L₀ = actual length at rest = ?

c = speed of light

v = relative speed = 70% of c = 0.7 c

Therefore,

A small resistor is connected to a 12 V battery. A second resistor of REALLY high resistance is added to the series circuit. How does this affect the current?

A) Nothing changes.

B) The current of the entire circuit is lowered.

C) The current through the large resistor is lowered.

D) The current through the small resistor is lowered.

Answers

Answer:

B) The current of the entire circuit is lowered.

Explanation:

There are two ways in which a resistor can be connected in a circuit;

i) Series: In a series connection, resistors are connected end to end. In this arrangement, the current passing through each resistor is the same while the potential difference across each resistor is different.

ii) Parallel: In a parallel connection, resistors are connected to  common junctions. In this arrangement, the potential difference across each resistor is the same while the current across each resistor varies.

In a series circuit, the effective resistance is the algebraic sum of resistance of all the resistors connected in series. Hence, if a large resistor is connected in series, the effective resistance of the circuit is greatly increased.

Since the voltage is given by;

V=IR (Ohm's law)

Where R is the effective resistance

Then;

I = V/R

If R becomes very large due to a large resistance connected in series, then the current of the entire circuit is lowered.

3) A 30 kg child slides freely across a "Slip and Slide" on LEVEL GROUND. While the child slides, the force applied to keep them sliding is 0 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.02. What is the acceleration experienced by the child?

Answers

Answer:

a = 0.1962 m/s^2

Explanation:

The magnitude of kinetic friction exerted is given by

[tex]F_k=\mu_kN[/tex]

Where, μ_k= coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.02 and N = reaction force = mg

Where m= mass = 30 Kg and, g is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s^2

F_k=0.02×30×9.81 =5.886 N

Now, since, there is no applied force this kinetic friction force will cause acceleration of the child

⇒ ma = F_k

here, a is the acceleration

⇒30a = 5.886

⇒ a = 0.1962 m/s^2

Gold-198 is a radioactive isotope, and it has a half-life of about 2.5 days.
You have 100 grams of Gold-198. How many grams remain after 20 days?

3.125 grams
1.5625 grams
0.78125 grams
0.390625 grams

Answers

Answer: 0.390625 grams

Explanation:

A half-life of an element is the amount of time that it takes for half the mass of the element to decay.

Gold-198 having a half-life of 2.5 days therefore means that every 2.5 days, the mass is cut in half.

If there are 20 days, find out how many half-life periods there are:

= 20 / 2.5

= 8 periods

The half life is:

= Original mass * 0.5^number of half-life periods

= 100 * 0.5⁸

= 0.390625 grams

Answers

Answer:

upward

Explanation:

In the electromagnetic system of force if the direction of motion of proton does not changes it means that the electric and magnetic forces are such a ways that they are cancelling each other's effect.

Since, electric field lines will exert a force on the proton to the west, hence, the magnetic force must force it to the east. It is well known that magnetic force acts perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field.  magnetic field should point upward direction.

A teacher sets up the following demonstration in which he places a clear glass rod with an index of refraction of 1.47 into a beaker containing an unknown liquid.

Required:
Which material is most likely to represent the liquid in the beaker and why?

Answers

Answer:

salt water

total internal reflection

Explanation:

Let's analyze this experiment, for the rod to disappear it must have happened that the light coming from it does not reach us that we are seeing from the air n = 1, therefore the light from the rod must be reflected, for this to happen we use the refractive ratio

           n₁  sin θ₁  = n₂ sin θ₂  

where n₁ is the refractive index of the rod, the greatest angle that could exist in the liquid is 90º, therefore sin 90 = 1

            n₁ sin θ₁  = n₂

           sin θ₁ = n₂ /n₁

the only way this expression is correct is that

             n₂ <n₁

that is

             n₂ < 1.47

When reviewing the given materials, the only one that meets this condition is salt water by the total internal reflection
