When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1450 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

straight wire in the handle. During use, the current is about 2.15 cm from the user's hand. What is the current in the hair dryer

Answer:

0.075A

Explanation:

We can consider this system as a circuit, hence we can take the current from the formula for the electric power as follow

P=IV\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{110V}{1450W}=0.075A

I hope this is useful for you

A spring has a spring constant of 20 N/m. How much potential energy is stored in the spring as it stretched 0.20 m
makkiz [27]
The elastic potential energy (Ep) is given by Ep = \frac{1}{2}*k*x^2

Data: 
Ep = ? (Joule)
k = 20 N/m
x (displacement) = 0.20 m

Solving:
Ep = \frac{1}{2}*k*x^2
Ep = \frac{1}{2}*20*0.20^2
Ep =  \frac{20*0.04}{2}
Ep =  \frac{0.8}{2}
\boxed{\boxed{Ep = 0.4\:J}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Who showed that our universe is heliocentric—the planets of the solar system revolve around the sun? Johannes Kepler Isaac Newto
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Nicolaus Copernicus was an astronomer from Poland, who was born on the 19th of February in the year 1473. He played a great role in the field of modern astronomy.

He was the person who contributed to the heliocentric theory. This theory describes the position of the sun in the middle of the universe, and all the planets move around the sun. This theory was initially not accepted, and after about a century it was widely accepted.

This theory describes the present-day motion of the planets around the sun in the solar system. This theory replaced the geocentric theory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

570 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram on the rider.  There are three forces: tension force 15° below the horizontal, drag force 30° above the horizontal, and weight downwards.

The rider is moving at constant speed, so acceleration is 0.

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° - T cos 15° = 0

F = T cos 15° / cos 30°

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

F sin 30° - W - T sin 15° = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 15°

Substituting:

W = (T cos 15° / cos 30°) sin 30° - T sin 15°

W = T cos 15° tan 30° - T sin 15°

W = T (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

Given T = 1900 N:

W = 1900 (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

W = 570 N

The rider weighs 570 N (which is about the same as 130 lb).

A(n) 82.7 kg boxer has his first match in the Canal Zone with gravitational acceleration 9.782 m/s 2 and his second match at the
Annette [7]

Answer:

82.7 kg

Explanation:

the mass of the boxer remains unchanged, this is because mass is a measure of the quantity of matter in an object irrespective of its location and the gravitational force acting at its location. this means mass is independent of the gravitational acceleration hence it remains the same 82.7 kg. its unit is in kilograms (Kg).
