Power used by the clock=1.03 W

Explanation:

resistance= 14000 ohm

voltage=120 V

The formula for the power is given by

$P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}$

P=(120)²/14000

P=1.03 W

Answer:

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the rock = TO BE DETERMINED

Temperature of the rock = 500 °C

Mass of the water =4.24 kg

⇒ loses 0.044kg as vapor

Initial temperature of the water = 29°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of rock = 0.20 kcal/kg °C

Specific heat of water = 1kcal/kg°C

Latent heat of vaporization = 539 kcal/kg

Step 2: formules

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qtotal,water = Qwater +Qvapor

Step 3: Calculate Qvapor

Qvapor = mass of vapor * Latent heat of vapor

Qvapor = 0.044kg * 539 kcal/kg = 23.716 kcal

Step 4: Calculate Qwater

Qwater = mass of water * specific heat * Δtemperature

Qwater = 4.196 kg * 1kcal/kg°C *( 100-29)

Qwater = 297.916 kcal

Step 5: Calculate Qwater,total

Qwater,total = Qwater + Qvapor

Qwater,total = 23.716 kcal + 297.916 = 321.632 kcal

Step 6: Calculate Qrock

Qrock = mass of rock * specific heat rock * Δtemperature

Qrock = mass of rock * 0.20 kcal/kg°C * (100-500)

Qrock = mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg

Step 7: Calculate mass of rock

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qlost,rock = -Qgained,water

mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg = -321.632 kcal

mass of rock = 4.02 kg

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

How would you define a disturbance in matter, such as water?

motikmotik

Answer:wave travel

Explanation:Because gravity pulls the water in the crest downward .Forced out from beneath the falling crests ,the falling water pushes former troughs upwards and the wave moves to a new position causing a disturbance.
