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

All of the planets and their satellites orbit the Sun in the same direction, and all their orbits lie near the same plane. True

MissTica

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The Sun rotates in the counterclockwise (CCW) direction when seen from its north pole. Since, the planets revolve around the Sun because of its gravity, the revolution of all the planets and their moons as seen from the north of the Sun is in CCW direction.

In fact most of the solar system bodies rotate in the same direction that is CCW. Some major exceptions to this are Venus and Uranus.

Almost all the planets and moons were made from the planetary disk around the Sun. Thus, they lie nearly in the same plane.

At speeds over 30 mph, you should maintain a following distance of at least ________ behind the vehicle ahead of you.

ICE Princess25 [194]

At speeds over 30 mph, you should maintain a following distance of at least <u>three full seconds</u> behind the vehicle ahead of you.

As a general rule and common sense at a speed of 30 mph you can leave three full seconds so that you can achieve a prudent distance between the car you are driving and the car in front in order to be able to perform some kind of maneuver if an accident or unforeseen event occurs.

To count the full three seconds you can use the technique of counting the Mississippis as follows: Mississippi one, Mississippi two, Mississippi three.

A motorist makes a trip of 180 miles . For the first 90 miles she drives at a constant speed of 30 mph at what constant speed mu

Ber [7]

Remaining Distance = 180miles-90miles= 90miles
Time taken for first part of her journey= 90miles / 30miles/h= 3hours
To have average speed of 40mph,
Let the time taken for second part be xh
180 / 3h+xh =40
3+x= 4.5h
x =1.5h
Constant speed she must drive = 90miles / 1.5h = 60mph
