Answer:

Lose electrons

Explanation:

When a positively charged conductor touches a neutral conductor, the neutral conductor will lose electrons. Only electrons can move from one conductor to another, so if the neutral conductor ended up with a positive charge it means it lost electrons. The conductor touching and the neutral conductor both end up being charged positively.

A hair dryer draws 11 A when it is connected to 120 V. If electrical energy costs $ 0.09/kW·h, what is the cost of using the hai

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The cost of using the hair dryer for 15 minutes is $\$3.6\bar 6$

Explanation:

The parameters given in the question are;

The electric current drawn by the the air dryer, I = 11 A

The voltage to which the hair dryer is connected, V = 120 V

The duration of usage of the hair dryer = 15 minutes = 60 minutes /4 = 1 hour/4 = 0.25 hour

The electrical energy costs $0.09/kW·h

The power consumed by the hair dryer = I × V = 11 × 120 = 1320 Watts = 1.32 kW

The energy used by the hair dryer in 15 minutes (0.25 hour) = 1.32 × 0.25 0.33 kW·h

The energy used by the hair dryer in 15 minutes (0.25 hour) = 0.33 kW·h

The energy cost = $0.09/(kW·h)

Therefore;

The cost of using the hair dryer for 15 minutes (0.25 hour) = 0.33 kW·h/($0.09/(kW·h)) = $33/9 = $3 2/3 = $3.6 $\bar 6$ .

Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the eq

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min

Explanation:

Given;

Boyle's law, PV = C

where;

P is pressure of the gas

V is volume of the gas

C is constant

Differentiate this equation using product rule:

$V\frac{dp}{dt} +P\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d(C)}{dt}$

Given;

$\frac{dP}{dt}$ (increasing pressure rate of the gas) = 40 kPa/min

V (volume of the gas) = 600 cm³

P (pressure of the gas) = 150 kPa

Substitute in these values in the differential equation above and calculate the rate at which the volume is decreasing ( $\frac{dv}{dt}$ );

(600 x 40) + (150 x $\frac{dv}{dt}$ ) = 0

$\frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{(600*40)}{150} = -160 \ cm^3/min$

Therefore, the volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min

A wheel is rotating at 30.0 rpm. The wheel then accelerates uniformly to 50.0 rpm in 10.0 seconds. Determine the – a) rate of an

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is $0.209\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity, $\omega_{i} = 30.0\ rpm$

Angular velocity, $\omega_{f} = 50.0\ rpm$

Time t = 10.0 sec

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using formula of angular acceleration

$\alpha=\dfrac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

$\alpha=\dfrac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{i}}{\Delta t}$

$\alpha=\dfrac{50.0-30.0}{10.0}$

Now, we change the angular velocity in rad/s.

$\omega=20\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

$\omega=2.09\ rad/s$

$\alpha=\dfrac{2.09}{10.0}$

$\alpha=0.209\ rad/s^2$

Hence, The angular acceleration is $0.209\ rad/s^2$
