An electric iron operating at 120 volts draws 10. amperes of current. how much heat energy
faltersainse [42]
The complete question is how much heat energy is delivered by the iron in 30 seconds.
Heat is given by IVt, Where I is the current in Amperes, V is the voltage, and t is the time in seconds,
Therefore; 
Heat energy = 120 × 10 ×30
                     = 36000 joules or 36 kJ
Heat energy is measured in joules.

A horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 16 meters apart. When a mass of 3 kilograms is tied to the middle of the cloth
Alla [95]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline is 41.85 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Poles = 2

Distance = 16 m

Mass = 3 kg

Sags distance = 3 m

We need to calculate the angle made with vertical by mass

Using formula of angle

\tan\theta=\dfrac{8}{3}

\thta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{8}{3}

\theta=69.44^{\circ}

We need to calculate the magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline

Using formula of tension

mg=2T\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula

3\times9.8=2T\times\cos69.44

T=\dfrac{3\times9.8}{2\times\cos69.44}

T=41.85\ N  

Hence, The magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline is 41.85 N.
