Answer:b)1770 kWh

Explanation:

Given

volume of water V=40,000 gallons

Temperature rise \Delta T=10^{\circ}C

c=4186 J/kg-^{\circ} C

also 1 kg mass is approximately is 1 gallon

therefore 40,000 gallon is equivalent to 3.8\times 40000 kg

heat Required to raise temperature is

Q=mc\Delta T

Q=3.8\times 40000\times 4186\times 10

Q=63,627.2\times 10^5 J

Q=63,672.2\times 10^2 KJ

Q=1767.42 kWh\approx 1770 kWh

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

W_f = 148.17J

Explanation:

During the exchange of applied force, thermal energy is generated by the friction that exists between the ground and the tire.

Said force according to the statement is the reaction of half the force on the rear tire. In this way the normal force acted is,

N=\frac{mg}{2} = \frac{90*9.8}{2} = 441N

The work done is given by the friction force and the distance traveled,

W_f = fd = \mu_k Nd

Where \mu_k [/ tex] is the coefficient of kinetic frictionN is the normal force previously found d is the distance traveled,Replacing,[tex]W_f = (0.80)(441)(0.42)

The thermal energy released through the work done is,

W_f = 148.17J

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The magnitudes of the net magnetic fields at points A and B is 2.66 x 10^{-6} T

Explanation:

Given information :

The current of each wires, I = 4.7 A

dH = 0.19 m

dV = 0.41 m

The magnetic of straight-current wire :

B= μ_{0}I/2πr

where

B = magnetic field (T)

μ_{0} = 1.26 x 10^{-6} (N/A^{2})

I = Current (A)

r = radius (m)

the magnetic field at points A and B is the same because both of wires have the same distance. Based on the right-hand rule, the net magnetic field of A and B is canceled each other (or substracted). Thus,

BH = μ_{0}I/2πr

     = (1.26 x 10^{-6})(4.7)/(2π)(0.19)

     = 4.96 x 10^{-6} T

BV = μ_{0}I/2πr

     = (1.26 x  10^{-6})(4.7)/(2π)(0.41)

     = 2.3 x 10^{-6} T

hence,

the net magnetic field = BH - BV

                                     = 4.96 x 10^{-6} - 2.3 x 10^{-6}

                                     = 2.66 x 10^{-6} T

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v = 54.2 m / s

Explanation:

Let's use energy conservation for this problem.

Starting point Higher

         Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lower

        Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

        Em₀ = Em_{f}

        m g h = ½ m v²

         v² = 2gh

         v = √ 2gh

Let's calculate

         v = √ (2 9.8 150)

         v = 54.2 m / s
