An electric heater is madde of a wire of resistance 100π and connected to a 240v mains supply. Determine the power rating of the heater​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Power = 576 Watts

Explanation:

The electrical power of an electric circuit can be defined as a measure of the rate at which energy is either produced or absorbed in the circuit.

Mathematically, electrical power is given by the formula;

[tex] Electrical \; power = current * voltage [/tex]

This ultimately implies that, the quantity (current times voltage ) is electrical power and it is measured (S.I units) in Watt (W).

Given the following data;

Resistance = 100 ohms

Voltage = 240 V

To find the power rating of the heater;

Power = V²/R

Where;

V is the voltage.

R is the resistance.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Power = 240²/100

Power = 57600/100

Power = 576 Watts

In a new scenario, the block only makes it (exactly) half-way through the rough spot. How far was the spring compressed from its unstretched length

Answers

Answer: hello  below is the missing part of your question

A mass m = 10 kg rests on a frictionless table and accelerated by a spring with spring constant k = 5029 N/m. The floor is frictionless except for a rough patch. For this rough path, the coefficient of friction is μk = 0.49. The mass leaves the spring at a speed v = 3.4 m/s.

answer

x = 0.0962 m

Explanation:

First step :

Determine the length of the rough patch/spot

F = Uₓ (mg)

and  w = F.d = Uₓ (mg)  * d

hence;

d( length of rough patch) = w / Uₓ (mg) = 46.55 / (0.49 * 10 * 9.8) = 0.9694 m

next :

work done on unstretched spring length

Given that block travels halfway i.e. d = 0.9694 / 2 = 0.4847 m

w' = Uₓ (mg)  * d

    = 0.49 * 10 * 9.81 * 0.4847 = 23.27 J

also given that the Elastic energy of spring = work done ( w')

1/2 * kx^2 = 23.27 J

x = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2*23.27}{5029} }[/tex]  = 0.0962 m

High-speed stroboscopic photographs show that the head of a -g golf club is traveling at m/s just before it strikes a -g golf ball at rest on a tee. After the collision, the club head travels (in the same direction) at m/s. Find the speed of the golf ball just after impact.

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

High-speed stroboscopic photographs show that the head of a 200 g golf club is traveling at 60 m/s just before it strikes a  50 g golf ball at rest on a tee. After the collision, the club head travels (in the same direction) at 40 m/s. Find the speed of the golf ball just after impact.

Solution :

We know that momentum = mass x velocity

The momentum of the golf club before impact = 0.200 x 60

                                                                             = 12 kg m/s

The momentum of the ball before impact is zero. So the total momentum before he impact is 12 kg m/s. Therefore, due to the conservation of momentum of the two bodies after the impact is 12 kg m/s.

Now the momentum of the club after the impact is = 0.2 x 40

                                                                                    = 8 kg m/s

Therefore the momentum of the ball is = 12 - 8

                                                                = 4 kg m/s

We know momentum of the ball, p = mass x velocity

                                                     4 = 0.050 x velocity

∴ Velocity =  [tex]$\frac{4}{0.050}$[/tex]

                 = 80 m/s

Hence the speed of the golf ball after the impact is 80 m/s.

The Cleveland City Cable Railway had a 14-foot-diameter pulley to drive the cable. In order to keep the cable cars moving at a linear velocity of 14 miles per hour, how fast would the pulley need to turn (in revolutions per minute)

Answers

Answer:

13.94 rpm

Explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of the pulley, d = 14 foot

Radius, r = 7 foot

The linear velocity of the pulley, v = 14 mph = 20.53 ft/s

We need to find the angular velocity in rpm.

We know that, the relation between the linear velocity and the angular velocity is as follows :

[tex]v=r\omega\\\\\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{20.53}{14}\\\\\omega=1.46\ rad/s[/tex]

or

[tex]\omega=13.94\ rpm[/tex]

So, the angular velocity of the pulley is 13.94 rpm.

Answers

Answer:

K = 0 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the particle, m = 1.2 mg

The speed of the particle, [tex]v=1.62\times 10\ cm/h[/tex]

We need to find the kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s.

At t = 0 s, the particle is at rest, v = 0

So,

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

If v = 0,

[tex]K=0\ J[/tex]

So, the kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s is 0 J.

to. Which of the balls, if any, will reach the highest temperature? Explain.
b. Which of the balls, if any, will have the most heat energy? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity is an intensive property of a material. The specific heat of a material is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one unit mass m of material by one unit of temperature.

a) Temperature is inversely proportional to specific heat capacity. If the same amount of heat is applied to all three balls, the ball that will reach the highest temperature is the ball with the least specific heat capacity.

Hence lead will have the highest temperature since it has the least specific heat capacity.

b) The quantity of heat is directly proportional to the specific heat capacity. Hence if all balls experience the same temperature change, the ball that have the most energy will be that with the highest specific heat capacity.

Hence aluminum will have the most heat since it has the highest specific heat capacity.

What quantity of heat is transferred when a 150.0g block of iron metal is heated from 25.0°C to 73.3°C? What is the direction of the heat flow?​

Answers

Answer:

Heat is flowing into the metal.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (M) of iron = 150 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 25.0°C

Final temperature (T₂) = 73.3°C

Direction of heat flow =?

Next, we shall determine the change in the temperature of iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 25.0 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 73.3 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 73.3 – 25

ΔT = 48.3 °C

Next, we shall determine the heat transfered. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) of iron = 150 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 48.3 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) of iron = 0.450 J/gºC

Heat (Q) transfered =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 150 × 0.450 × 48.3

Q = 3260.25 J

Since the heat transferred is positive, it means the iron metal is absorbing the heat. Thus, heat is flowing into the metal.

When an apple falls towards the earth,the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is this true?If yes, why is the earth's motion not noticeable?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, when an apple falls towards the earth, the apple gets accelerated and comes down due to the gravitational force of attraction used by the earth. The apple also exerts an equal and opposite force on the earth but the earth does not move because the mass of the apple is very small, due to which the gravitational force produces a large acceleration in it (a = F/m) but the mass of the earth is very large, the same gravitational force produces very small acceleration in the earth and we don't see the earth rising towards the apple.

Explain the following observations:
a) A balloon filled with hydrogen gas floats in air;
B) A ship made of steel floats on water.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. An oxygen-filled balloon is not able to float in the air, because the oxygen inside the balloon is of the same density, that is, the same "weight" as the oxygen outside the balloon and present in the atmosphere. The balloon can only float if the gas inside it is less dense than atmospheric oxygen. Helium gas is less dense than atmospheric gas, so if a balloon is filled with helium gas, that balloon will be able to float because of the difference in density.

b. The ship is able to float in the water because its steel construction is hollow and full of air. This makes the average density of this ship less than the density of water, which makes the ship lighter than water and for this reason, this ship is able to float. In addition, the ship is partially immersed, allowing the weight of the ship on the water to counteract the buoyant force that the water promotes on the ship. Weight and buoyant are two opposing forces that keep the ship afloat.

b) he two blocks must move the same distance

c) v = 1.96 m / s,  d)  a = -1.96 m / s², e)  x = 0.98 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

Big Block

Y axis

             N-W = 0

             N = M g

X axis

             T- fr = Ma

the friction force has the expression

             fr = μ N

             fr = μ Mg

small block

             w- T = m a

             

we write the system of equations

             T - fr = M a

             mg - T = m a

we add and resolved

             mg-  μ Mg = (M + m) a

             a = [tex]g \ \frac{m - \mu M}{m+M}[/tex]

             a = [tex]9.8 \ \frac{10- 0.2 \ 20}{ 10 \ +\ 20}[/tex]

             a = 9.8 (6/30)

             a = 1.96 m / s²

a) now we can use the kinematic relations

             y = v₀ t + ½ a t²

the blocks come out of rest so their initial velocity is zero

             y = ½ a t²

             y = ½ 1.96 t²

             y = 0.98 t²

for t = 1s y = 0.98 m

       t = 2s y = 1.96 m

b) Time is a scale that is the same for the entire system, the question should be oriented to how far the big block will move.

As the curda is in tension the two blocks must move the same distance

c) the velocity of the block M

           v = vo + a t

           v = 0 + 1.96 t

for t = 1 s v = 1.96 m / s

       t = 2 s v = 3.92 m / s

d) the deceleration if the chain is cut

when removing the chain the tension becomes zero

           -fr = M a

          - μ M g = M a

          a = - μ g

          a = - 0.2 9.8

          a = -1.96 m / s²

e) the distance to stop the block is

         v² = vo² - 2 a x

        0 = vo² - 2a x

        x = vo² / 2a

        x = 1.96² / 2 1.96

        x = 0.98 m

the time to travel this distance is

        v = vo - a t

        t = vo / a

        t = 1.96 /1.96

        t = 1 s
