The info below shows three kettles with their powers and the time they take to boil 500cm3 of water. If electricity costs 9p per

unit, how much does it cost to boil 500cm3 of water using the 3kW kettle?
Kettle 1= 3mins =3kW
Kettle 2= 3.5mins= 2.2kW
Kettle 3=4.5mins=1.4kW

The cost of boiling 500 cm³ of water using the 3 KW Kettle is 1.35p

<h3>What is power? </h3>

This is defined as the rate in which energy is consumed. Electrical power is expressed mathematically as:

Power (P) = Energy (E) / time (t)

P = E / t

<h3>How to determine the energy</h3>
  • Power (P) = 3 KW
  • Time (t) = 3 mins = 3 / 60 = 0.05 h
  • Energy (E) =?

E = Pt

E = 3 × 0.05

E = 0.15 KWh

<h3>How to determine the cost</h3>
  • Energy (E) = 0.15 KWh
  • Cost per unit = 9p
  • Cost =?

Cost = Energy × cost per unit

Cost = 0.15 × 9

Cost = 1.35p

laiz [17]

The length of the pendulum is 0.087 m. Option d is correct.

<h3>What is Simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion is periodic motion caused by a restoring force that is proportionate to the deviation from equilibrium.

Simple harmonic motion is periodic motion but many other conditions are dependent.

The time period of the pendulum is found as;

\rm T= 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \\\\ \rm 1.87 \ sec= 2 \times 3.14  \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.81 m/s^2} } \\\\ L=0.087 \ m

The length of the pendulum is 0.087 m

Hence, option d is correct.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .

Explanation:

The equation form of thermodynamics is,

ΔQ=ΔU+W

Here, ΔQ is the heat transferred, ΔU is the change in internal energy, and W is the work done.

Substitute 0 J for W and 0 J for ΔU

ΔQ = 0J+0J

ΔQ = 0J

The change in internal energy is equal to zero because the temperature changes of the house didn’t change. The work done is zero because the volume did not change

The heat transfer is,

ΔQ=Q  (in ) −Q (out )

Substitute 19000 J + 2000 J for Q(in)  and 0 J for Q(out)

ΔQ=(19000J+2000J)−(0J)

=21,000J

​Thus, the amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .
