A central air conditioner in a typical American home operates on a 220-V circuit and draws about 15 A
of current
a. Determine the power rating of such an air conditioner.
b. Determine the energy consumed (in kW.hr) if operated for 8 hours per day.
c. Determine the monthly cost (31 days) if the utility company charges 13 cents per kW.hr.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 220V

Current = 15 A

a. To find the power;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 15 * 220

Power = 3300 Watts

b. To find the energy;

Time = 8 hours = 60 * 60 * 8 = 28800 seconds

Energy = power * time

Energy = 3300 * 8

Energy = 26400

Energy = 26.4 Kwh

c. Cost = 13 cents

Cost = 13 * 31 * 26.4

Cost = 106392 cents

A body is thrown up with a velocity of 78.4 m per second.How high will it rise and how much time it will take to return to its point of projection

Answers

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the body is 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is 8 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the body, u = 78.4 m/s

at maximum height (h) the final velocity of the body (v) = 0

The following equation is applied to determine the maximum height reached by the body;

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = u² - 2gh

2gh = u²

h = u²/2g

h = (78.4²) / (2 x 9.8)

h = 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is calculated as follows;

at maximum height, the final velocity becomes the initial velocity = 0

h = v + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²

h =  ¹/₂gt²

2h = gt²

t² = 2h/g

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 313.6}{9.8} }\\\\t = 8 \ s[/tex]

Because cosmic distances are so vast, astronomers use light-years as their unit of distance. One light-year is defined as _______________________. The nearest star is a little more than ____ light-years away from us. When we see light from a galaxy 2 million light-years away, it has taken _______________ to reach us. Light from the Sun takes ___________ to reach us.

Answers

Answer:

Because cosmic disaster are so vast, astronomers use light-years as their unit of distance. One light-year is defined as the distance a beam of light travels in one year. The nearest star is a little more than 4.37 light-years away from us. When we see light from a galaxy 2 million light-years away, it has taken 2 million Earth years to reach us. Light from the Sun takes approximately 8.4269 minutes to reach us

Explanation:

i) One light-year is defined as the distance a light beam travels in a time of one Earth year. One light year is equivalent to 6 × 10¹² miles or 9.7 × 10¹² km

ii) The distance to the nearest star =  4.37 light-years

iii) When a star located in a galaxy that is 2.3 million light years away is seen, it has taken 2.3 million light years to reach us

iv) The distance of the Sun to the Earth = 151.58 million kilometers

The speed of light, c = 299792.458 km/s

The time it will take light to reach us from the Sun, 't', is given as follows;

t = 151.58 × 10⁶ km/(299792.458 km/s) ≈ 8.4269 minutes.

how is the modern day periodic table arranged group experiencing Oppression/loss of fredom?

Answers

The chemical elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. The horizontal rows are called periods and the vertical columns are called groups. Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties. This is because they have the same number of outer electrons and the same valency. Atomic radius patterns are observed throughout the periodic table. Atomic size gradually decreases from left to right across a period of elements. This is because, within a period or family of elements, all electrons are added to the same shell. As a result, the atomic radius decreases. That is a science method reasoning on why it lost its freedom, hope this helps!

The voltage is generally referred to as the electric potential difference and  it can be measured using a voltmeter. The electrical potential difference between the two plates is expressed as q=CV.

i want to now why volcanoes erupt

Answers

Answer:

Deep within the Earth it is so hot that some rocks slowly melt and become a thick flowing substance called magma. Since it is lighter than the solid rock around it, magma rises and collects in magma chambers. Eventually, some of the magma pushes through vents and fissures to the Earth's surface.

Explanation:

Explanation:

Volcanoes erupt when molten rock called magma rises to the surface. Magma is formed when the earth's mantle melts. ... If magma is thick, gas bubbles cannot easily escape and pressure builds up as the magma rises. When the pressure is too much an explosive eruption can happen, which can be dangerous and destructive.

Based on the information in the graph, why is energy released during the fusion of hydrogen (H) into helium (He)?
A. The hydrogen-1 nuclei (H - 1) are more stable than the helium-4 (He - 4) nucleus is, because they have less binding energy per nucleon than the helium has.
B. There are fewer nucleons in a helium-4 (He-4) nucleus than there are in four hydrogen-1 (H - 1) nuclei, so there is more energy released per nucleon when helium forms.
C. The hydrogen (H) nuclei are lower in energy than the helium (He) nucleus is, so more energy is stored in a helium nucleus.
D. The helium (He) nucleus is more stable than the hydrogen (H) nuclei are, because more mass is converted into binding energy in helium.

In a certain circuit the number of electrons passing a given point in 3 seconds is 6 x 1014 electrons. What is the current flow in this circuit? (Show all work, including substitution with units)

Answers

Answer:

Current = 0.000032 Amperes

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Time, t = 3 seconds

Number of electrons = 6 * 10^14 electrons

Conversion:

First of all, we would convert the number of electrons to charge.

Coulombs = electron charge ÷ 6.2415 * 10^18

Coulombs = (6 * 10^14) ÷ (6.2415 * 10^18)

Coulombs = 0.000096 Coulombs

To find the current;

Mathematically, quantity of charge is given by the formula;

Quantity of charge, Q = current * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

0.000096 = current * 3

[tex] Current = \frac {0.000096}{3} [/tex]

Current = 0.000032 Amperes

Healthy human lungs look pink and spongy from the outside. The left lung is a little smaller than the right lung to make room for the heart. The lungs and heart are both protected by the rib cage. In the lungs, each main bronchus branches off into many smaller bronchi. The bronchi become smaller and smaller, and the smallest bronchi are called bronchioles. There are about 30,000 bronchioles in each lung, each about the same thickness as a strand of hair. The inhaled air eventually ends up in tiny air sacs called alveoli at the end of each bronchiole. There are about 300 million alveoli in each lung. They are covered with capillaries, tiny blood vessels that are only one cell thick. Oxygen travels from the alveoli through the capillaries to the bloodstream, heart and other cells

the total resistance of the circuit

Answers

The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of individual resistances. Voltage applied to a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops. The voltage drop across a resistor in a series circuit is directly proportional to the size of the resistor.

If you know the total current and the voltage across the whole circuit, you can find the total resistance using Ohm's Law: R = V / I. For example, a parallel circuit has a voltage of 9 volts and total current of 3 amps. The total resistance RT = 9 volts / 3 amps = 3 Ω

Current: The total circuit current is equal to the sum of the individual branch currents. Resistance: Individual resistances diminish to equal a smaller total resistance rather than add to make the total.

Answer: 3

Explanation: If you know the total current and the voltage across the whole circuit, you can find the total resistance using Ohm's Law: R = V / I. For example, a parallel circuit has a voltage of 9 volts and total current of 3 amps. The total resistance RT = 9 volts / 3 amps = 3 Ω.
