While trying out for the position of pitcher on your high school baseball team, you throw a fastball at 87.6 mi/h toward home pl

ate, which is 18.4 m away. how far does the ball drop due to effects of gravity by the time it reaches home plate? (ignore any effects due to air resistance and assume you throw the ball horizontally.)?

An electric heater is operated by applying a potential difference of 78.0 V across a nichrome wire of total resistance 7.00 Ω. a
aleksley [76]

PART A)

Here we know that

potential difference across the wire is

V = 78 volts

resistance of wire is

R = 7 ohm

now by ohm's law

V = iR

78 = i(7 ohm)

i = 11.14 A

Part b)

Power rating is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is defined as

P = iV

now we have

P = 11.14 ( 78)

P = 869.1 Watt

(a) Calculate the rate of heat conduction through house walls that are 13.0 cm thick and that have an average thermal conductivi
Mkey [24]

Answer:

a. 960 W b. One 1 kW room heater

Explanation:

a. The rate of heat conduction P = kA(T₂ - T₁)/d where k = 2 × 0.040 W/m-K =  0.080 W/m-K since the thermal conductivity of glass wool is 0.040 W/m-K and that of the material is twice the thermal conductivity of glass wool, A = area of walls = 120 m², T₁ = outside surface temperature = 5.0 °C, T₂ = inside surface temperature = 18.0 °C and d = thickness of wall = 13.0 cm = 0.13 m

P = kA(T₂ - T₁)/d

= 0.080 W/m-K × 120 m²(18.0 °C - 5.0 °C)/0.13 m

= 9.6 Wm/K × 13 K/0.13 m

= 124.8 Wm/0.13 m

= 960 W

b. The number of 1 kW room heater required will be

n = rate of heat conduction/power of one room heater = 960 W/ 1 kW = 960 W/1000 W = 0.96 ≅ 1

So we need only one 1 kW room heater.
