We can solve for the power dissipated by the oven on the given values of voltage which is 120 volts and current which is equal to 12.5 amperes.
The formula for Power dissipated is P=V*I where "v" for the voltage and "i" for the current.
P=120*12.5
P=1500 watts
The answer is 1500 watts.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

Explanation:

Electric field due to plates

Ef = V/d  

Ef = 2033 V / (2.0 * 10^-2 m )

Ef = 101650 V/m

So, we can write  

Ef * q = m*g

q = m*g / E f

The mass can be equal using the density and the volume so:

m = ρ * v

The volume can be find as:

v = 2.298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³

q =  ρ * v * g / Ef

q =  81 x 10 ³ kg/ m³ * 2.2298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³ * 9.8 m/s² / 101650 V/m

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

9. How much energy does a 100 W light bulb use in half an hour? If the light bulb converts
yulyashka [42]

The energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.

What is Energy?

Energy is the ability or the capacity to do work.

To calculate the energy of the light bulb we use the formula below

Formula:

  • E = Pt.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • E = Energy used by the bulb in a half-hour
  • P = Power of the bulb
  • t = Time

Given:

  • P = 100 W
  • t = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes = (30×60) = 1800 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • E = (100×1800)
  • E = 180000 J

  • If the light converts 12% of electric energy to light energy, then  88% of the energy is used to generate thermal energy

Therefore,

  • Thermal energy = (180000×88/100) = 158400 J

Hence, the energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.
