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 parallel-plate, air-gap capacitor has a capacitance of 0.14 mu F. The plates are 0.5 mm apart, What is the area of each plate?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

7.9060 m²

8.57 Volts

5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule

1.2×10⁻⁶ Coulomb

Explanation:

C = Capacitance between plates = 0.14 μF = 0.14×10⁻⁶ F

d = Distance between plates = 0.5 mm = 0.5×10⁻³ m

Q = Charge = 1.2 μC = 1.2×10⁻⁶ C

ε₀ = Permittivity = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

Capacitance

C=\frac{\epsilon_{0}A}{d}\\\Rightarrow A=\frac{Cd}{\epsilon_{0}}\\\Rightarrow A=\frac{0.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.5\times 10^{-3}}{8.854\times 10^{-12}}\\\Rightarrow A=7.9060\ m^2

∴ Area of each plate is 7.9060 m²

Voltage

V=\frac{Q}{C}\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{1.2\times 10^{-6}}{0.14\times 10^{-6}}\\\Rightarrow V=8.57\ Volts

∴ Potential difference between the plates if the capacitor is charged to 1.2 μC  is 8.57 Volts.

Energy stored

E=0.5CV²

⇒E = 0.5×0.14×10⁻⁶×8.57²

⇒E = 5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule

∴ Stored energy is 5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule

Charge

Q = CV

⇒Q = 0.14×10⁻⁶×8.57

⇒Q = 1.2×10⁻⁶ C

∴ Charge the capacitor carries before a spark occurs between the two plates is 1.2×10⁻⁶ Coulomb

Jack and Jill are on two different floors of their high rise office building and looking out of their respective windows. Jack s
Maru [420]

Answer:

a) speed when Jack sees the pot : 12.92 meters per second

b) height difference 163.115 meters

Explanation:

First to calculate te initial speed we use the acceleration formula:

a= v1-v0/t

Acceleration being gravity's acceleration (9.8 m/s^2)

v1 being the speed when Jill sees the pot

v0 when Jack sees it

and t the time between

Solving for v0 it would be

v1 - a*t = v0

replacing

58 m/s -  9.8 m/s^2 *4.6 s = v0 = 12.92 m/s

For the second question we use the position formula setting y0 and t0 as the position and time when jack sees the pot. (and setting the positive axis downward I.E. one meter below jack would be 1m not -1m)

The formula is

y0 + v0*t + 1/2 g *t^2 = yt

replacing

0m + 12.92m/s* 4.6 s + 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (4.6 s)^2 = 163.115 m

Which wavelength would scientists use to measure the molecular structure of H2O?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O).

A hockey stick of mass ms and length L is at rest on the ice (which is assumed to be frictionless). A puck with mass mp hits the
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Explanation:

Given info

ms = mass of the hockey stick

uis = 0 (initial speed of the hockey stick before the collision)

xis = D (initial position of center of mass of the hockey stick before the collision)

mp = mass of the puck

uip = v₀ (initial speed of the puck before the collision)

xip = 0 (initial position of center of mass of the puck before the collision)

If we apply

Ycm = (ms*xis + mp*xip) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D + mp*0) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Now, we can apply the equation

L = m*v*R

where m = mp

v = v₀

R = Ycm

then we have

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)
