A 2400W electric toaster is connected to a standard 120 V wall outlet. A family
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

1)  energy = 15.6 kWh,  2)    total_cost = $ 2.03

Explanation:

1) The energy dissipated is the product of the power and the time of use In a month it was used t = 6.5 h and the power of the toaster is

P = 2400 W = 2,400 kW

       energy = P  t

       energy = 2,400  6.5

        energy = 15.6  kWh

using rounding to a decimal

        energy = 15.6 kWh

2) The cost of energy is unit_cost = $ 0.13 / kWh

so the total cost

         total_cost = energy    unit_cost

         total_cost = 15.6   0.13

         total_cost = $ 2.028  

rounding to two decimal places

         total_cost = $ 2.03

List the charge, location, and mass of a proton, a neutron,<br> and an electron.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Atoms consist of protons, neutrons and electrons

Explanation:

There are three particles in an atom:

  • Proton: it is located in the nucleus. Its mass is m_p = 1.6726\cdot 10^{-27}kg, and it is positively charged (its electric charge is +1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, also  called fundamental charge)
  • Neutron: it is also located in the nucleus. Its mass is slightly larger than the proton (m_n = 1.6749\cdot 10^{-27}kg), and it has no electric charge. Protons and neutrons are held together inside the nucleus by the strong nuclear interaction
  • Electron: it is located outside the nucleus, in a region called "electron cloud". According to quantum mechanics, its exact position cannot be determined, but it can only be described by a "wave function" which gives the probability of finding the electron at a certain position. Its mass is much smaller than the proton (m_e = 9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg) and it is negatively charged (its charge is the opposite of that of the proton: -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C).

Distinguish between basic and derived units
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Base units are defined units based on specific objects or events in the physical world. Derived units are defined by combining base units.

Base units are defined by a particular process of measuring a base quantity whereas derived units are defined as algebraic combinations of base units. For example, length is a base quantity in both SI and the English system, but the meter is a base unit in the SI system only.

A stationary horn emits a sound with a frequency of 228 Hz. A car is moving toward the horn on a straight road with constant spe
stiks02 [169]

Answer: 26.84 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Original frequency of the horn f_o=228\ Hz

Apparent frequency f'=246\ Hz

Speed of sound is V=340\ m/s

Doppler frequency is

\Rightarrow f'=f_o\left(\dfrac{v+v_o}{v-v_s}\right)

Where,

v_o=\text{Velocity of the observer}\\v_s=\text{Velocity of the source}

Insert values

\Rightarrow 246=228\left[\dfrac{340+v_o}{340-0}\right]\\\\\Rightarrow 366.84=340+v_o\\\Rightarrow v_o=26.8\ m/s

Thus, the speed of the car is 26.84\ m/s
