A toaster oven uses 65,000 joules of energy in 40sec to toast a piece of bread. What is the power of the oven?

storchak [24]

Answer:

Power = 1625 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Energy = 65,000 J

Time = 40secs

To find the power;

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

$Power = \frac {Energy}{time}$

Substituting into the equation, we have

Power = 65,000/40

Power = 1625 Watts

A projectile is thrown with an initial speed of 20 m/s at an angle 30 degrees above

ZanzabumX [31]

Initial velocity u = 20 m/s

Initial horizontal velocity = 20 cos30° = 20 * 0.866 = 17.32 m/sec.

Initial vertical velocity = 20 sin30° = 20 * 1/2 = 10 m/sec.

time taken t = u/g = 10/10 =1 sec. ( approximating g to 10m/sec^2)

Maximum height h = ut + 1/2 * g * t^2

h = 10 *1 - 1/2 * 10 * 1* 1

h = 10 - 5 = 5 metres.

Total time in air = 2t = 2 seconds.
