Answer:

Q' = 8 KW.h

Q'=28800 KJ

Explanation:

Given that

Heat Q= 4 KW

time ,t = 2 hours

The amount of energy used in KWh given as

Q ' = Q x t

Q' = 4 x  2 KW.h

Q' = 8 KW.h

We know that

1 h = 60 min = 60 x 60 s  = 3600 s

We know that W  = 1 J/s

The amount of energy used in KJ given as

Q' = 8 x 3600 = 28800 KJ

Therefore

Q' = 8 KW.h

Q'=28800 KJ

The following electrical characteristics have been determined for both intrinsic and p-type extrinsic gallium antimonide (GaSb)
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

0.5m^2/Vs and 0.14m^2/Vs

Explanation:

To calculate the mobility of electron and mobility of hole for gallium antimonide we have,

\sigma = n|e|\mu_e+p|e|\mu_h (S)

Where

e= charge of electron

n= number of electrons

p= number of holes

\mu_e= mobility of electron

\mu_h=mobility of holes

\sigma = electrical conductivity

Making the substitution in (S)

Mobility of electron

8.9*10^4=(8.7*10^{23}*(-1.602*10^{-19})*\mu_e)+(8.7*10^{23}*(-1.602*10^{-19})*\mu_h)

0.639=\mu_e+\mu_h

Mobility of hole in (S)

2.3*10^5 = (7.6*10^{22}*(-1.602*10^{-19})*\mu_e)+(1*10^{25}*(-1.602*10^{-19}*\mu_h))

0.1436 = 7.6*10^{-3}\mu_e+\mu_h

Then, solving the equation:

0.639=\mu_e+\mu_h (1)

0.1436 = 7.6*10^{-3}\mu_e+\mu_h (2)

We have,

Mobility of electron \mu_e = 0.5m^2/V.s

Mobility of hole is \mu_h = 0.14m^2/V.s

The part of a circuit that carries the flow of electrons is referred to as the?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

  Conductor

Explanation:

Current is carried by a conductor.

__

The purpose of a dielectric and/or insulator is to prevent current flow. An electrostatic field may set up the conditions for current flow, but it carries no current itself.

An 1,840 W toaster, a 1,420 W electric frying pan, and a 70 W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15 A, 120 V circuit. (T
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A)

Current drawn by toaster = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp = 0.58 A

B)

The fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.

Explanation:

There are three devices plugged into the same outlet.

Toaster = 1840 W

Electric frying pan = 1420 W

Lamp = 70 W

Since the three devices are connected in parallel therefore, the voltage across them will be same but the current drawn by each will be different.

A) What current is drawn by each device?

The current flowing through the device is given by

I = P/V

Where P is the power and V is the voltage.

Current drawn by toaster:

I = 1840/120

I = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan:

I = 1420/120

I = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp:

I = 70/120

I = 0.58 A

B) Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

The total current drawn by all three devices is

Total current = 15.33 + 11.83 + 0.58

Total current = 27.74 A

Therefore, the fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.
