Hello!

We have the following data:

Time (T) = ? (in minutes)
Power (P) = 3 kW → 3000 W
Energy (E) = 9 MJ → 9000000 J or (W/s)

Formula of the consumption of electric energy:

$P = \frac{E}{T}$

Solving:

$P = \frac{E}{T}$

$P = \frac{E}{T} \to T = \frac{E}{P}$

$T = \frac{9000\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\:\diagup\!\!\!\!W/s}{3\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\:\diagup\!\!\!\!W}$

$\boxed{T = 3000\:seconds}$

How many minutes can it run for? (Let's convert in minutes)

1 minute --------- 60 seconds
y minute --------- 3000 seconds

$\frac{1}{y} = \frac{60}{3000}$

Product of extremes equals product of means

$60*y = 1*3000$

$60y = 3000$

$y = \frac{3000}{60}$

$\boxed{\boxed{y = 50\:minutes}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

I hope this helps! =)

Answer:

50 minutes

Explanation:

Power, P = 3 kW = 3000 W

Energy, E = 9 MJ = 9 x 10^6 J

Let the time be t.

Power = Energy / time

Time, t = E / P = 9 x 10^6 / 3000 = 3000 sec

t = 50 minutes

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. the heat capacity of object a is

Harman [31]

Given:
Ca = 3Cb (1)
where
Ca = heat capacity of object A
Cb = heat capacity f object B

Also,
Ta = 2Tb (2)
where
Ta = initial temperature of object A
Tb = initial temperature of object B.

Let
Tf = final equilibrium temperature of both objects,
Ma = mass of object A,
Mb = mass of object B.

Assuming that all heat exchange occurs exclusively between the two objects, then energy balance requires that
Ma*Ca*(Ta - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb) (3)

Substitute (1) and (2) into (3).
Ma*(3Cb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)
3(Ma/Mb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb

Define k = Ma/Mb, the ratio f the masses.
Then
3k(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb
Tf(1+3k) = Tb(1+6k)
Tf = [(1+6k)/(1+3k)]*Tb

Answer:
$T_{f} =( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k} )T_{b}= \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k})T_{a}$
where
$k= \frac{M_{a}}{M_{b}}$

When you apply the torque equation ∑τ = 0 to an object in equilibrium, the axis about which torques are calculated:

kupik [55]

Answer:

option D.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option D.

When an object is in equilibrium torque calculated at any point will be equal to zero.

An object is said to be in equilibrium net moment acting on the body should be equal to zero.

If the net moment on the object is not equal to zero then the object will rotate it will not be stable.

Any ferrous metal object within or near the mri magnet has the potential of becoming a projectile. this is commonly referred to

PtichkaEL [24]

This phenomena is referred to as metal projectile injury/effect. MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging. As expected, your body is subjected to a magnetic field. This is a technique to look inside your body without cutting it open. Metals should not be placed anywhere near an MRI because it will cause the metals to follow the direction of the magnetic field.

Before the student releases the cart by cutting the tinsel string, what forces are acting on the cart?

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: TENSION and WEIGHT

Explanation:

Force experienced by the spring is called TENSION while the WEIGHT is the gravitational pull on the body towards the earth surface. Therefore the forces acting on the cart are TENSION and WEIGHT(weight acts downwards (along negative y-axis) while the TENSION upward(along positive y-axis).

An example of potential energy is a ball sitting _____ of the stairs.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

at the top

Explanation:

Potential energy is the stored energy, mechanical energy,

or energy possessed by by virtue of the position of an object.an example of potential energy is the energy that a ball possesses by virtue of its sitting at the top of the stairs it being about to roll down the stairs.
