calcula la potencia por hora de un radiador, sabiendo que esta conectado a un contacto común 110 v. y requiere 20 Amp.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

calculate the power per hour of a radiator, knowing that it is connected to a common 110 v contact. and requires 20 Amp.

Answer:

2.2kWh

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential difference  = 110v

Current  = 20A

Unknown:

Power  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

        Power  = IV

 Power  = 110 x 20  = 2200W

  This is therefore 2.2kW

 Power per hour  = 2.2kWh

Romashka [77]

Answer:

The pressure on the floor is 12 Pascal(Pa).

Explanation:

Given,

Force (F) = 240N

Area (A) = 20 cm^2

Pressure (P) = ?

we know that,

P = F/A

= 240/ 20

= 12 Pa

Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? explain.
choli [55]

Answer

Hi,

The forces are; weight (gravity), Normal/centripetal force and friction. Force due to gravity is constant where as friction and centripetal are not.

Explanation

Weight is constant, given by the force of gravity on the object. The centripetal force is a function of the angles occurring between the velocity vector and the weight vector that is at right angle with the perpendicular line drawn from the surface. Friction is a function of the centripetal force thus it also varies.

Hope this helps!
