An 1647 w toaster, a 1592 w electric frying pan, and a 81 w lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 120-v circuit. (the three

devices are in parallel when plugged into the same socket.). what current is drawn by the frying pan

Since all of the appliances ... and everything else in the house that's
plugged into a wall outlet ... are all in parallel, they don't have any
effect on each other.  They don't know about each other.  The
question asks about the frying pan, so the toaster and the lamp
have no effect  on the answer.

The frying pan has 120 V applied to it, and it produces 1592 watts
of heat.

Power = (voltage)·(current)

1592 watts = (120 v)·(current)

Divide each side by 120v:

Current = (1592 watts) / (120 volts)

Current = 13.27 Amperes

A vector has a magnitude of 30m at an angle of 225 degrees with respect to the positive x-axis and has a magnitude of 13m.what a
Aneli [31]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure this is not a complete question. My guess is that you are trying to add/subtract vectors. Vectors have both magnitude and direction, so vector A is pretty clear, but a magnitude of 13 (i'm guessing a resultant) without a direction is weird.

IF 13 is the magnitude of the resultant, vector B added to vector A could have any magnitude 17 ≤ B ≤ 43

It could have any direction of

θ = (225 - 180) ± arcsin(13/30)

θ = 45 ± 25.679...

70.679 ≤ θ ≤ 19.321

components of vector B would be

Bx = |B|cosθ

By = |B|sinθ

A wire is wrapped 200 times around a hollow cylinder of cross-sectional area 12 cm2 and length 10 cm. Assuming the turns are spr
Sonja [21]

Answer:

The answer is 10.857mJ

Explanation:

The energy stored in this solenoid is given by the below mentioned equation,

U = L*I^{2}/2

where L the inductance of this solenoid is given by the below mentioned equation,

L = u_{0} *N^{2}*A/L

Plugging this into the energy equation you obtain the equation for the total energy stored in the magnetic field of the solenoid, given by,

U = u_{0} *N^{2}*A*I^{2}/(2*L)

where u_{0} is the permeability of free space which equals to u_{0} = 4*\pi *10^{-7} T.m/A. Plugging all the quantities into the above equation from the data in the question after converting to standard units. of meters instead of centimeters, we get for the energy stored in the coil,

U = 10.857mJ
