Answer:

0.96 kWh

Explanation:

First of all, we can find the power of the appliance using the formula:

P=VI

where

V = 120 V is the voltage of the source

I = 2 A is the current

Substituting,

P(120 V)(2 A)=240 W = 0.24 kW

Now we want to find the amount of energy used by the applied in a time of

t = 4 h

The amount of energy is given by

E=Pt

where

P = 0.24 kW

t = 4 g

Substituting,

E=(0.24 kW)(4 h)=0.96 kWh

how does spatial pattern of heights illustrate the relationship between temperature density and the rate of vertical pressure ch
Anika [276]

The rate of change of vertical pressure is directly proportional to density and also directly proportional to temperature.

Generally, the relationship between temperature, density and rate of vertical pressure is given as;

\rho = \frac{PM}{RT}

\frac{dP}{dz} = -\rho g\\\\

where;

  • <em>ρ is density</em>
  • <em>T is temperature</em>
  • <em>dP is rate of change of vertical  pressure</em>

Thus, from the formula above, we can conclude the following relationship between temperature, density and the rate of vertical pressure change in spatial pattern of heights.

The rate of change of vertical pressure is directly proportional to density and also directly proportional to temperature.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

f_n=3.75N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frictional force F=0.150N

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu=0.04

Generally the equation for Normal for is mathematically given by

 f_n=\frac{F}{\mu}

Therefore

 f_n=\frac{0.150}{0.04}

 f_n=3.75N

Light propagate faster through medium “a” than medium “b”
dangina [55]

1) Medium "b" has more optical density

2) Light must hit the interface between the two mediums perpendicularly

Explanation:

1)

Refraction occurs when light propagates from a medium into a second medium.

The optical density of a medium is given by its index of refraction, which is defined as:

n=\frac{c}{v}

where

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

v is the speed of light in a medium

Higher index of refraction means higher optical density, and light propagater slower into a medium with higher optical density.

In this problem, light propagates faster through medium "a" than medium "b": this means that medium "a" has lower refractive index of medium "b", and so "b" has more optical density.

2)

We can answer this part by referring to Snell's law, which gives the relationship between the direction of the incident ray and of the refracted ray when light passes through the interface between two media:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1, n_2 are the index of refraction of the two mediums

\theta_1, \theta_2 are the angle of incidence and of refraction (the angle that light makes with the normal to the surface in medium 1 and medium 2)

Here we want the direction of propagation of the light ray not to change: this means that it must be

sin \theta_1 = sin \theta_2 (1)

However, here we have two mediums "a" and "b" with different index of refraction, so

n_1\neq n_2

Therefore the only angle that can satisfy eq.(1) is

\theta_1 = \theta_2 = 0

So, the light must hit the surface perpendicular to the interface between the two mediums.
