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

The index of refraction of a transparent substance is 1.7, and the speed of light in air is 3.00 · 108 s. Calculate the speed of
Natalija [7]
Given the index of refraction, n and speed of light in the vacuum, c, we can solve for the speed of light in the transparent substance by the equation below.
                                                n = c / v
where v is our unknown.
Substituting the known values,
                                            1.7 = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / v
The value of v is equal to 1.76 x 10^8 m/s.

Find the total power developed in the circuit. Express your answer using three significant figures and include the appropriate u
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

37 W

Explanation:

Power is the time rate of dissipation or absorbing energy. The power supplied or absorbed by an element is the product of the current flowing through the element and the voltage across the element. Power is measured in watts. If the power is positive then it is absorbed by the element and if it is negative then it is supplied by the element.

Power = voltage * current

For element A: Power = 36 V * -4 A = -144 W

For element B: Power = -20 V * -4 A = 80 W

For element C: Power = -24 V * 4 A = -94 W

For element D: Power = -80 V * -1.5 A = 120 W

For element E: Power = 30 V * 2.5 A = 75 W

The total power developed in the circuit = sum of power through the element = (-144 W) + 80 W + (-94 W) + 120 W + 75 W = 37 W

There are two identical small metal spheres with charges 38.9 µC and −27.6399 µC. Thedistance between them is 6 cm. The spheres
Greeley [361]

Answer:

2683.3N

Explanation:

According to coulombs law which states that "the force of attraction existing between two charge q1 and q2 is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance (d) between them. Mathematically |F|= k|q1| |q2| /d² where;

F is the force of attraction between the charges

q1 and q2 are the charges

d is the distance between them

k is the coulombs constant

Given |q1|= 38.9 × 10^-6C and |q2| = 27.6399×10^-6C d = 6cm = 0.06m

k = 8.98755 × 109 Nm² /C²

Substituting the given data's in the equation we have;

|F| = 8.98755 × 10^9×38.9×10^-6×27.6399×10^-6/0.06²

|F| = 9.66/0.06²

|F| = 9.66/0.0036

|F| = 2683.3N

The magnitude of the force will be 2683.3N

Note that the modulus of the charges changes negative value of q2 to positive value. The opposite signs of the charges doesn't affect the final calculation, it only tells the force of attraction or repulsion between the charges. Since they are unlike charges, they will attract each other in the field.
