Which type of energy would be put into a hair dryer being used to dry your hair and why

1 answer:

6 0

Electrical because without it, the hairdryer wouldn’t turn on. Thermal and sound are types of energy that are released after turning it on.

wo kids are on a seesaw. The one on the left has a mass of 75 kg and is sitting 1.5 m from the pivot point. The one on the right

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

4.5 Nm (Anticlockwise)

Explanation:

Let the 75 kg kid is sitting at the left end and the 60 kg kid is sitting on the right end.

Anticlockwise Torque = 75 x 1.5 = 112.5 Nm

clockwise Torque = 60 x 1.8 = 108 Nm

Net torque = Anticlockwise torque - clockwise torque

Net Torque = 112.5 - 108 = 4.5 Nm (Anticlockwise)

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.300 rev/s . The magnitude

Salsk061 [2.6K]

1) 1.2 m/s

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the blade at time t = 0.200 s. This is given by

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

where

$\omega_i = 0.300 rev/s$ is the initial angular velocity

$\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Substituting t = 0.200 s, we find

$\omega_f = 0.300 + (0.895)(0.200)=0.479 rev/s$

Let's now convert it into rad/s:

$\omega_f = 2\pi \cdot 0.479 rev/s=3.01 rad/s$

The distance of a point on the tip of the blade is equal to the radius of the blade, so half the diameter:

$r=\frac{0.800}{2}=0.400 m$

And so now we can find the tangential speed at t = 0.200 s:

$v=\omega_f r =(3.01)(0.400)=1.2 m/s$

2) $2.25 m/s^2$

The tangential acceleration of a point rotating at a distance r from the centre of the circle is

$a_t = \alpha r$

where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration.

First of all, we need to convert the angular acceleration into rad/s^2:

$\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^ \cdot 2 \pi =5.62 rad/s^2$

A point on the tip of the blade has a distance of

r = 0.400 m

From the centre; so, the tangential acceleration is

$a_t = (5.62)(0.400)=2.25 m/s^2$

3) $3.6 m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v is the tangential speed

r is the distance from the centre of the circle

We already calculate the tangential speed at point a):

v = 1.2 m/s

while the distance of a point at the end of the blade from the centre is

r = 0.400 m

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration is

$a=\frac{1.2^2}{0.400}=3.6 m/s^2$

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

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

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Water breaking down into hydrogen and oxygen is a decomposition reaction

Hydrogen and oxygen combining to form water is a synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the breakdown of a chemical reactant entity into two or more simpler product fragments

Water H₂O undergoes a decomposition reaction by breaking down into hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, as follows;

2H₂O (l) → 2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

A synthesis reaction is a reaction that involves the chemical combination of two or more dissimilar molecules or atoms to produce a different compound or molecule

Water, H₂O, is formed by a synthesis reaction of hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, combining as follows;

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
