Power = voltage(V) * current(I)

          = 120 * 0.5

Power = 60 watts

The temperature of the liquid in a container decreases as the liquid evaporates. Use kinetic theory to explain why.
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Temperature decreases because the number of collision of the molecules decreases as they escape or evaporate. Molecules are in constant motion. Increase in temperature leads to increase in average kinetic energy of the molecules.

Suppose we measure the energy stored in some inductor to be E when there is a current I running through it. If I double the curr
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

If I double the current in the inductor, the new total energy will become 4E (option f).

Explanation:

The coil or inductor is a passive component made of an insulated wire that stores energy in the form of a magnetic field due to its form of coiled turns of wire, through a phenomenon called self-induction. In other words, inductors store energy in the form of a magnetic field. The energy stored in the space where there is a magnetic field in the inductor is:

E=\frac{1}{2} *L*I^{2}

where E is Energy [J], L is Inductance [H] and I is Current [A].

If you double the current in the inductor, then the new value of the current is I'= 2*I. So replacing the new total energy is:

E'=\frac{1}{2} *L*I'^{2}=\frac{1}{2} *L*(2*I)^{2}=\frac{1}{2} *L*4*I^{2}=4*\frac{1}{2} *L*I^{2}

Then:

E'=4*E

<em><u>If I double the current in the inductor, the new total energy will become 4E (option f).</u></em>

Water enters a baseboard radiator at 180 °F and at a flow rate of 2.0 gpm. Assuming the radiator releases heat into the room at
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Temperature of water leaving the radiator = 160°F

Explanation:

Heat released = (ṁcΔT)

Heat released = 20000 btu/hr = 5861.42 W

ṁ = mass flowrate = density × volumetric flow rate

Volumetric flowrate = 2 gallons/min = 0.000126 m³/s; density of water = 1000 kg/m³

ṁ = 1000 × 0.000126 = 0.126 kg/s

c = specific heat capacity for water = 4200 J/kg.K

H = ṁcΔT = 5861.42

ΔT = 5861.42/(0.126 × 4200) = 11.08 K = 11.08°C

And in change in temperature terms,

10°C= 18°F

11.08°C = 11.08 × 18/10 = 20°F

ΔT = T₁ - T₂

20 = 180 - T₂

T₂ = 160°F

The spring of a spring balance is 6.0 in. long when there is no weight on the balance, and it is 8.4 in. long with 4.0 lb hung f
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

W = 55.12 J

Explanation:

Given,

Natural length = 6 in

Force = 4 lb,  stretched length = 8.4 in

We know,

F = k x

k is spring constant

4 = k (8.4-6)

k = 1.67 lb/in

Work done to stretch the spring to 10.1 in.

W =k\int_{6}^{10.1} x

W = \dfrac{k}{2}[x^2]_6^{10.1}

W = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times (10.1^2-6.0^2)

W = 55.12 J

Work done in stretching spring from 6 in to 10.1 in is equal to 55.12 J.
