What is the resistance of an electric frying pan that draws 12 amperes of current when connected to 120 Volt circuit

Physics

10 ohms

Explanation

the resistance of an electric circuit is given by:

\begin{gathered} R=\frac{V}{I} \\ where\text{ R is the resitance} \\ Vi\text{s the voltage} \\ I\text{ is the current} \end{gathered}

so

Step 1

a) let

\begin{gathered} R=R \\ V=120\text{ volts} \\ I=12\text{ Amperes} \end{gathered}

b) now, replace in the expression

\begin{gathered} R=\frac{V}{I} \\ R=\frac{120\text{ volt}}{12\text{ Amp}} \\ R=10\text{ ohms} \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is

10 ohms

I hope this helps you

alexira [117]

Answer:

hellooooo :) ur ans is 33.5 m/s

At time t, the displacement is h/2:

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

h/2 = 0 + ½ gt²

h = gt²

At time t+1, the displacement is h.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

h = 0 + ½ g (t + 1)²

h = ½ g (t + 1)²

Set equal and solve for t:

gt² = ½ g (t + 1)²

2t² = (t + 1)²

2t² = t² + 2t + 1

t² − 2t = 1

t² − 2t + 1 = 2

(t − 1)² = 2

t − 1 = ±√2

t = 1 ± √2

Since t > 0, t = 1 + √2.  So t+1 = 2 + √2.

At that time, the speed is:

v = at + v₀

v = g (2 + √2) + 0

v = g (2 + √2)

If g = 9.8 m/s², v = 33.5 m/s.

3. How does Earth’s rotation affect our view of stars
Elis [28]
Since we ride along with the Earth while it's doing whatever it does,
the Earth's rotation causes our eyes to constantly point in a different
direction.

If we try to keep watching one star, we have to keep changing the
direction of our eyes to keep looking at the same star. 

We can't feel the Earth rotating, so our brains say that the star  ... and
the sun and the moon too ... is actually moving across the sky.

What is the forms of energy given below.
Damm [24]

Answer:

Lightening of the table lamp

Explanation:

Energy has a different form of energy. In physics, the capacity of the form of energy is work. The energy can exist in the form of thermal, potential, kinetic, chemical and electrical, and nuclear. There are other forms of energy such as work and heat.

The energy is designated according to the nature of the objects. So that when heat transferred it has been changed into thermal. All the forms of energy are related to the motion of an object. Energy can neither destroyed or created.
