The heater element of a 120 V toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. The resistivity of nichrome

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The power drawn by the toaster is closest to:

(A) 370 W

Explanation:

First we calculate the resistance of the nichrome wire (R).

$R=\frac{pL}{A} =\frac{pL}{\pi r^{2} } \\$

Where radious (r), resistance coefficient (p), and Length (L)

$r=\frac{0.48}{2} 10^{-3} m\\\\L=5.4 m\\p=1.3*10^{-3}\varOmega \\\\\\Replacing:\\\\R=\frac{1.3(10)^{-6} *5.4}{\pi* 0.24^{2} (10)^{-6}} =38.7940$

After replace the value in the ohm law power formula to obtain the power consumed:

$P=\frac{V^2}{R} =\frac{120^2}{38.7940} =371.191 Watts$

Infrared waves from the sun are what make our skin feel warm on a sunny day. If an infrared wave has a frequency of 3.0 x 1012 H

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of the infrared wave is <u>0.0001 m</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of an infrared wave is, $f=3.0\times 10^{12}\ Hz$

We know that, infrared waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed and their magnitude is equal to the speed of light in air.

So, speed of infrared waves coming from the Sun travels with the speed of light and thus its magnitude is given as:

$v=c=3.0\times 10^8\ m/s$

Where, 'v' is the speed of infrared waves and 'c' is the speed of light.

Now, we have a formula for the speed of any wave and is given as:

$v=f\lambda$

Where, $\lambda \to \textrm{Wavelength of infrared wave}$

Now, rewriting the above formula in terms of wavelength, $\lambda$ , we get:

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Now, plug in $3.0\times 10^8$ for 'v', $3.0\times 10^{12}$ for 'f' and solve for $\lambda$ . This gives,

$\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8}{3.0\times 10^{12}}\\\\\lambda=0.0001\ m$

Therefore, the wavelength of the infrared wave is 0.0001 m.

Ted wants to hang a wall clock on the wall by using a string. If the mass of the wall clock is 0. 250 kilograms, what should be

antoniya [11.8K]

Sum of all forces = mass * acceleration

Ft= tension force
Fw= force of gravity (Fw= mass* acceleration of gravity which is 9.8 this only applies to force of gravity)

Ft- Fw = 0 (there is no acceleration)
Ft = Fw
Ft= m*g
Ft= 0.250kg*9.8m/s
Ft= 2.45N
