A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.

Physics
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

I need help with questions 4 and 5 because my teacher is not good with explaining them to a better understanding (Geometry)
Helga [31]
Hello! I can help you with this! 

4. For this problem, we have to write and solve a proportion. We would set this proportion up as 12/15 = 8/x. This is because we're looking for the length of the shadow and we know the height of the items, so we line them up horizontally and x goes with 8, because we're looking for the shadow length. Let's cross multiply the values. 15 * 8 = 120. 12 * x = 12. You get 120 = 12x. Now, we must divide each side by 12 to isolate the "x". 120/12 is 10. x = 10. There. The cardboard box casts a shadow that is 10 ft long.

5. For this question, you do the same thing. This time, you're finding the height of the tower, so you would do 1.2/0.6 = x/7. Cross multiply the values in order to get 8.4 = 0.6x. Now, divide each side by 0.6x to isolate the "x". 8.4/0.6 is 14. x = 14. There. The tower is 14 m tall.

If you need more help on proportions and using proportions in real life situations, feel free to search on the internet to find more information about how you solve them.

A horizontal pipe contains water at a pressure of 110 kPa flowing with a speed of 1.4 m/s. When the pipe narrows to one half its
Pavel [41]

Answer:

a

  v_2 =  5.6 \  m/s

b

   P_2 = 80600 \  Pa

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The pressure of the water in the pipe is  P_1= 110 \  kPa  =  110 *10^{3 } \  Pa

      The speed of the water  is v_1 =  1.4 \  m/s

       The original area of the pipe is  A_1 =  \pi \frac{d^2 }{4}

       The  new area of the pipe is  A_2 = \pi *  \frac{[\frac{d}{2} ]^2}{4}  =  \pi *  \frac{\frac{d^2}{4} }{4} = \pi \frac{d^2}{16}

         

Generally the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

       A_1 *  v_1 =  A_2 * v_2

Here v_2 is the new velocity  

So

        \pi * \frac{d^2}{4}   *  1.4  = \pi * \frac{d^2}{16}   * v_2

=>     \frac{d^2}{4}   *  1.4  =  \frac{d^2}{16}   * v_2

=>    d^2    *  1.4  =  \frac{d^2}{4}   * v_2

=>    1.4  = 0.25    * v_2

=>     v_2 =  5.6 \  m/s

Generally given that the height of the original pipe and the narrower pipe are the same , then we will b making use of the  Bernoulli's equation for constant height to calculate the pressure

This is mathematically represented as

       

             P_1 + \frac{1}{2}  *  \rho *  v_1 ^2  =  P_2 + \frac{1}{2}  *  \rho *  v_2 ^2

Here \rho is the density of water with value  \rho =  1000  \  kg /m^3

             P_2 =  P_1 + \frac{1}{2} *  \rho [ v_1^2 - v_2^2 ]

=>          P_2 =  110 *10^{3} + \frac{1}{2} *  1000 *  [ 1.4 ^2 - 5.6 ^2 ]

=>          P_2 = 80600 \  Pa

calculate the mass of potassium chlorate (kcio3) required to obtain 10g of oxygen in the following reaction:kclO3-kcl+O2​
igor_vitrenko [27]

First, balance the reaction:

_ KClO₃   ==>   _ KCl + _ O₂

As is, there are 3 O's on the left and 2 O's on the right, so there needs to be a 2:3 ratio of KClO₃ to O₂. Then there are 2 K's and 2 Cl's among the reactants, so we have a 1:1 ratio of KClO₃ to KCl :

2 KClO₃   ==>   2 KCl + 3 O₂

Since we start with a known quantity of O₂, let's divide each coefficient by 3.

2/3 KClO₃   ==>   2/3 KCl + O₂

Next, look up the molar masses of each element involved:

• K: 39.0983 g/mol

• Cl: 35.453 g/mol

• O: 15.999 g/mol

Convert 10 g of O₂ to moles:

(10 g) / (31.998 g/mol) ≈ 0.31252 mol

The balanced reaction shows that we need 2/3 mol KClO₃ for every mole of O₂. So to produce 10 g of O₂, we need

(2/3 (mol KClO₃)/(mol O₂)) × (0.31252 mol O₂) ≈ 0.20835 mol KClO₃

KClO₃ has a total molar mass of about 122.549 g/mol. Then the reaction requires a mass of

(0.20835 mol) × (122.549 g/mol) ≈ 25.532 g

of KClO₃.
