0.143 A
Explanation:
The total resistance of the circuit is

so the total current is
Itotal= V/R = 9V/35.89 ohms
= 0.25 A
To find the voltage drop across the 30-ohns resistor, use
V = Itotal × (combined resistance of 40 30)
= 0.25 A × 17.14 ohms = 4.285 volts
so the current through the 30-ohm resistor is
I = (voltage drop)/30-ohms
= (4.285 V)/(30 ohms)
= 0.143 A
B.
The law of conservation states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed
Answer : The time required is, 16.1 minutes.
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the amount of heat required to increase the temperature is:


where,
Q = amount of heat required = ?
m = mass
= density of air = 
V = volume of air
C = specific heat of air = 
= change in temperature = 
Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:



Now we have to calculate the time required.
Formula used :

where,
t = time required = ?
Q = amount of heat required = 
P = power = 1500 W
Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:


Thus, the time required is, 16.1 minutes.
The correct answer is C. Plug in x and y value for answers to see if they work. For example, 9/3 = 3. So C is the answer.
