160 students sit in an auditorium listening to a physics lecture. Because they are thinking hard, each is using 125 W of metabol

ic power, slightly more than they would use at rest. An air conditioner with a COP of 5.0 is being used to keep the room at a constant temperature.
what minimum power should be used to operate the air conditioner?

Answer:

minimum power should be used to operate the air conditioner is 4000 W

Explanation:

given data

students  n = 160

power p = 125 W

COP = 5.0

to find out

what minimum power should be used

solution

we know the COP formula that is given below

COP = students × power  / minimum power

minimum power = n × p / COP

put all value

minimum power = n × p / COP

minimum power = 160 × 125 / 5

minimum power = 4000 W

minimum power should be used to operate the air conditioner is 4000 W

Harrizon [31]
First, before determining which variable is which, we go over the definition of each.
The independent variable is the one which is intentionally changed in order to investigate its effect on the dependent variable.
The dependent variable is monitored and changes occur in it due to the changing conditions of the independent variable.

In this case, the location of the African violets is the independent variable as it is intentionally changed, while the rate of growth of the African violets is the dependent variable as it is being measured.

Suppose a rectangular piece of aluminum has a length D, and its square cross section has the dimensions W XW, where D (W x W) to
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

R₂ / R₁ = D / L

Explanation:

The resistance of a metal is

        R = ρ L / A

Where ρ is the resistivity of aluminum, L is the length of the resistance and A its cross section

We apply this formal to both configurations

Small face measurements (W W)

The length is

         L = W

Area  

         A = W W = W²

        R₁ = ρ W / W² = ρ / W

Large face measurements (D L)

       Length L = D= 2W

       Area     A = W L

     R₂ = ρ D / WL = ρ 2W / W L = 2 ρ/L

The relationship is

    R₂ / R₁ = 2W²/L

You catch a volleyball (mass 0.270 kg) that is moving downward at 7.50 m/s. In stopping the ball, your hands and the volleyball
sesenic [268]

Explanation:

The work done equals the change in energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 − ½mv²

W = -½ (0.270 kg) (-7.50 m/s)²

W = -7.59 J

Work is force times displacement.

W = Fd

-7.59 J = F (-0.150 m)

F = 50.6 N

The atomic number of beryllium (Be) is 4, and the atomic number of barium (Ba) is 56. Which comparison is best supported by this
Thepotemich [5.8K]

The answer is:

B)They are in the same group because they have similar chemical properties, but they are in different periods because they have very different atomic numbers.

The explanation:

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties.

A period is a horizontal row of elements on the periodic table. For example, the elements sodium ( Na ) and magnesium ( Mg ) are both in period 3. The elements astatine ( At ) and radon ( Rn ) are both in period 6.
