Answer:

power = 142.4 W

Explanation:

power of heater in Germany (P₁) = 523.2 W

power of heater in America (P₂) = ?

outlet voltage in Germany (V₁) = 230 V

outlet voltage in America (V₂) = 120 V

  • While in Germany, power = \frac{V₁^{2}}{R}

         523.2 = \frac{230^{2}}{R}

         R = 101.1

  • While in America, also power = \frac{V₂^{2}}{R}

         using the value of R gotten above

         power = \frac{120^{2}}{101.1}

        power = 142.4 W

At a department store, you adjust the mirrors in the dressing room so that they are parallel and 6.2 ft apart. You stand 1.8 ft
barxatty [35]

Answer:

<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>

<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>

Explanation:

Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft

difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft

a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.

According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,

your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>

b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.

the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,

the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,

therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>

A hopper jumps straight up to a height of 1.1 m. With what velocity did it leave the floor?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

4.64m/s

Explanation:

We can use the formula [ v = √2gh ] to solve for this problem. We know that g is constant acceleration (9.8), and h is height (1.1).

v = √2(9.8)(1.1)

v ≈ 4.64m/s

Best of Luck!

1. Compare the speed that light waves travel in air to the speed that sound waves travel in the air. How many times faster do li
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

895522 times faster.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Speed of sound in air (v) = 335 m/s

Speed of light in air (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

How many times faster =.?

To obtain how many times faster light travels in air than sound, do the following

c : v => 3×10⁸ : 335

c/v = 3×10⁸ / 335

c/v = 895522

Cross multiply

c = 895522 × v

From the illustrations made above, we can see that the speed of the light in air (c) is 895522 times the speed of sound in air.

Thus, light travels 895522 times faster than sound in air.

A force F with arrow= (5xî+ 4yĵ), where F with arrow is in newtons and x and y are in meters, acts on an object as the object mo
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

w= 62.75 J

Explanation:

Given that

Force vector F= 5 x i + 4 y j

Space vector or displacement vector d= 5.01 i

We know that work (w)

w=∫ F.ds

w= ∫(5 x i + 4 y j) .dx            ( only object is moving in x- direction)

w=\int_{0}^{5.01}5xi.dxi

w=\int_{0}^{5.01}5x.dx

w=\left [\dfrac{5}{2}x^2\right ]_0^{5.01}

w= 2.5 x 5.01² J

w= 62.75 J
