Answer: 960 W

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which energy is dispensed. Electrical power can be defined as the rate at which electric energy is flowing in an electric circuit. It is given by the formula:

P = V I

Where, V is the voltage(V) , I is the current (A).

V = 240 V (given)

I = 4 A  (given)

P = VI = 960 Watts

Hence, power used by the cloth dryer is 960 W.

Heat gained minus work fine is equal to what?
Zina [86]

Heat transferred - Work done = Internal Energy

Explanation:

  • If there is more heat transfer than the work done, the energy difference is called internal energy
  • The first law of thermodynamics equation is given as ΔU=Q−W where, ΔU = Internal energy; Q = Heat transfer; W = Work done
  • Heat = transfer of thermal energy between two bodies at different temperatures
  • Work = force used to transfer energy between a system and its surroundings
  • The First Law of Thermodynamics states - energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat, work and internal energy
  • Energy cannot be created nor destroyed

Which dog has the most kinetic energy
Blababa [14]
The formula to find the kinetic energy is:

Ek= 1/2 × m × v^2

1. Ek= 1/2×15×3^2
= 67.5 J

2.Ek= 1/2×8×4^2
=64 J

3.Ek= 1/2×12×5^2
= 150 J

4.Ek= 1/2×10×6^2
= 180 J

So the fourth dog has the most kinetic energy.
