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

Coherent light of wavelength 540 nm passes through a pair of thin slits that are 3.4 × 10-5 m apart. At what angle away from the

Scrat [10]

Answer: $1.8\°$

Explanation:

The diffraction angles $\theta_{n}$ when we have a slit divided into $n$ parts are obtained by the following equation:

$dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda$ (1)

Where:

$d=3.4(10)^{-5}m$ is the width of the slit

$\lambda=540 nm=540(10)^{-9}m$ is the wavelength of the light

$n$ is an integer different from zero.

Now, the second-order diffraction angle is given when $n=2$ , hence equation (1) becomes:

$dsin\theta_{2}=2\lambda$ (2)

Now we have to find the value of $\theta_{2}$ :

$sin\theta_{2}=\frac{2\lambda}{d}$ (3)

Then:

$\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2\lambda}{d})$ (4)

$\theta_{2}=arcsin(\frac{2(540(10)^{-9}m)}{3.4(10)^{-5}m})$ (5)

Finally:

$\theta_{2}=1.8\°$ (6)

To what physical quantity do ampere-hours correspond, and what relationship do ampere-hours have to energy content?

navik [9.2K]

Electric charge

Explanation:

The ampere-hour corresponds to the unit of electric charge.

Electric charge = electric current x time

electric current is measured in amperes

time is measured in hours

The ampere-hour is the current transferring one charge in one hour.

The ampere hour can be used to express the energy require to move a current of 1A in a hour.

The quantity is related to electric charge and the energy in a battery.

A 700 kg racecar slowed from 30 m/s to 15 m/s. What is the change in momentum

Lerok [7]

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Original momentum = (700 kg) x (30 m/s) = 21,000 kg-m/s

Final momentum = (700 kg) x (15 m/s) = 10,500 kg-m/s

Change in momentum = - 10,500 kg-m/s .
