An electric heater supplies 5kw of power to atank of water assume all the energy supplied is converted into heat energy and the
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<em>8hours 45minutes</em>

Explanation:

Amount of heat energy used up by the electric substance = heat gained by the water.

Amount of heat energy used up by the electric substance = Power * Time

heat gained by the water. = mcΔt

m is the mass of the water in kg

c is the specific heat capacity

Δt is the change in temperature

Given parameters

Power = 5kW = 5000W

mass of water m = 500kg

c = 4200J/kgC

Δt = 100°C - 25°C = 75°C

Required

Time taken

Substituting the given parameters into the formula

Pt = mcΔt

5000t = 500*4200*75

5000t = 157,500,000

Divide both sides by 5000

t =  157,500,000/5000

t = 31,500 secs

t = (31,500/3600)hrs

t = 8.75hours

t = 8hours 45minutes

<em>Hence it takes 8hours 45minutes to heat 500 kg of water in the tank from 25c to 100c</em>

A pilot wants to drop a bomb on a target. His plane is traveling at a speed of 166 m/s horizontallly and is at an altitude of 76
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

2070 m

Explanation:

Find the time to fall from d=  762.5 m to the ground :

   d = 1/2 a t^2     shows t = 12.5 s

Horizontal distance =   166 m/s   * 15.5 s =   2069.7 m =~2070 m
