Answer:

   I= 27.09 A

Explanation:

Power of electric heater = 1500W= 1.50*10³ W

Power of toaster = 750W = 7.5*10²W

Power of electric grill = 1000W =1*10³ W

Voltage = 120V

By using formula P=VI ie I = \frac{P}{V}

A) Current used by electric heater I₃ =\frac{1.50*10^3}{120}

                    I₃ = 12.5 A

B) Current used by toaster I₂ =\frac{750}{120}

                I₂ = 6.25 A

C) Current used by electric grill I₃ = \frac{1000}{120}

                   I₃ = 8.34 A

Current used by all three appliances is

       I=I₁+I₂+I₃

        I=12.5+6.25+8.34

         I= 27.09 A

<h2>Person must have 8.18 m/s to catch the ball</h2>

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = -25 m

Substituting

             -25 = 12 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

               4.905 t² -12t - 25 = 0

              t = 3.79 sec

Ball hits ground after 3.79 seconds.

So person need to cover 31 m in 3.79 seconds

Consider the horizontal motion of person

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

Initial velocity, u = ?

Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

Displacement, s = 31 m

Time, t = 3.79 seconds

Substituting

             31 = u x 3.79 + 0.5 x 0 x 3.71²

               u = 8.18 m/s

Person must have 8.18 m/s to catch the ball
