Answer:

Total energy saving will be 0.8 KWH

Explanation:

We have given there are 50 long light bulbs of power 100 W so total power of 50 bulb = 100×50 = 5000 W = 5 KW

30 bulbs are of power 60 W

So total power of 30 bulbs = 30×60 = 1800 W = 1.8 KW

Total power of 80 bulbs = 1.8+5 = 6.8 KW

Total time = 3 hour

We know that energy E=power\times time=6.8\times 3=20.4KWH

Now power of each CFL bulb = 25 W

So power of 80 bulbs = 80×25 = 2000 W = 2 KW

Energy of 80 bulbs = 2×3 = 6 KWH

So total energy saving = 6.8-6 = 0.8 KWH

Denise is conducting a physics experiment to measure the acceleration of a falling object when it slows down and comes to a stop
anastassius [24]
To calculate the acceleration of the wooden block, we use the expression F=ma where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration. We calculate as follows:

F = ma
4.9 = 0.5a
a = 9.8 

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A climatograph for a tropical grassland or savanna would look different from the climatograph shown for a temperate grassland. D
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Savannas have a fairly constant temperature all year; temperate grasslands have a greater seasonal temperature variation.

Explanation:

For example, the African Savanna has an almost constant temperature all year (see the first figure below).

The difference between summer and winter temperatures is only about 5 °C, and the rate of temperature change is quite slow.

The temperature of a temperate grassland (see the second figure below) has a much greater seasonal variation.  

The summers are hot, and the winters are cold. The difference between summer and winter temperatures is about 30 °C, with a rapid rate of temperature change from one season to the next.

If a 1,300 kg car with no people inside is on the edge of a cliff 1,500 m above the ground, what is its potential energy?
Ghella [55]

<u>Given that</u>

mass (m) = 1300 Kg ,

height (h) = 1500 m

Determine the potential energy ?

     P.E = m × g × h

           = 1300 × 9.81 × 1500

           = 19129500  Joules

           = 19129.5 KJ

a 75 kg man is standing at rest on ice while holding a 4kg ball. if the man throws the ball at a velocity of 3.50 m/s forward, w
AysviL [449]

Answer:

His resulting velocity will be 0.187 m/s backwards.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the man is, M=75\ kg

Mass of the ball is, m=4\ kg

Initial velocity of the man is, u_m=0\ m/s(rest)

Initial velocity of the ball is, u_b=0\ m/s(rest)

Final velocity of the ball is, v_b=3.50\ m/s

Final velocity of the man is, v_m=?\ m/s

In order to solve this problem, we apply law of conservation of momentum.

It states that sum of initial momentum is equal to the sum of final momentum.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Initial momentum = Initial momentum of man and ball

Initial momentum = Mu_m+mu_b=75\times 0+4\times 0 =0\ Nm

Final momentum = Final momentum of man and ball

Final momentum = Mv_m+mv_b=75\times v_m+4\times 3.50 =75v_m+14

Now, initial momentum = final momentum

0=75v_m+14\\\\75v_m=-14\\\\v_m=\frac{-14}{75}\\\\v_m=-0.187\ m/s

The negative sign implies backward motion of the man.

Therefore, his resulting velocity is 0.187 m/s backwards.
