' W ' is the symbol for 'Watt' ... the unit of power equal to 1 joule/second.
That's all the physics we need to know to answer this question.
The rest is just arithmetic.
(60 joules/sec) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (3600 sec/hour)
= (60 · 30 · 8 · 3600) (joule · day · hour · sec) / (sec · day · hour)
= 51,840,000 joules

Wait a minute ! Hold up ! Hee haw ! Whoa !
Excuse me. That will never do.
I see they want the answer in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh).
In that case, it's
(60 watts) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (1 kW/1,000 watts)
= (60 · 30 · 8 · 1 / 1,000) (watt · day · hour · kW / day · watt)
= 14.4 kW·hour
Rounded to the nearest whole number:
14 kWh
What is Potential Energy? You probably already know that without eating, your body becomes weak from lack of energy. Take a few bites of a turkey sandwich, and moments later, you feel much better. That's because food molecules contain potential energy, or stored energy, that can do work in the future. Hope it helps
Answer:
Tarzan, who weighs 688N, swings from a cliff at the end of a convenient vine that is 18m long. From the top of the cliff to the bottom of the swing he descends by 3.2m.
Explanation:
Answer:
Janet stops parking in handicapped spaces after she gets a big parking ticket. - Positive Punishment
Peter’s recess is taken away to discourage him from getting into fights with the other children. - Negative Punishment
Ted increases paying his bills on time to avoid a late fee. - Negative Reinforcement
Sally increases the amount of work she completes to receive more pay. - Positive Reinforcement
Explanation:
In operant conditioning, the main principle is that behavior increases or decreases its frequency depending on whether it's reinforced or punished. A behavior can be reinforced by giving something the subject appreciates, like more pay for their work (positive reinforcement) or taking away something they dislike, like late fees (negative reinforcement). Punishments work the same way, you can give something the subject dislikes, like a parking ticket, (positive punishment) or taking away something they like recess for a child. (negative punishment).
