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.

Answer:

30m/s

Explanation:

Use formula for height calculation: Time = √2h/√g
From here calculate height which comes out to be: 45m(if g is taken 10)
Then use formula for velocity calculation: v = √2gh

The velocity comes out to be 30m/s
