An office heater puts out 2090 Btu (British thermal units) of energy in the form of heat per hour. Given that 1 Btu=1.055 kJ, ho
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Total energy produced  19135.362 MJ/year

Explanation:

given details:

total energy produced = 2090 Btu per hour

1 Btu = 1.055kJ

Total energy produced per year in mega joule is = 2090*1.055 *365*24

                                                                                = 19315362 KJ/year

In mega joule per year = \frac{19315362}{1000}

mega joule per year = 19135.362 MJ/year

Select the statement that correctly completes the description of phase difference.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The difference in the phase angle between any two waves at any given position along the waves.

Explanation:

Phase difference describes  the difference in the phase angle between any two waves at any given position along the waves. The equation of wave is given by :

Wave 1, y=A\ sin(\omega t)

Wave 2, y=A\ sin(\omega t+\phi)

Where

A is the amplitude of wave

\omega is the angular frequency

\phi is the phase difference between two waves

If \Delta d is the path difference, it is given by :

\Delta d=d\ sin\theta

Hence, the correct option is (a) "the difference in the phase angle between any two waves at any given position along the waves".

A microwave oven operates with sinusoidal microwaves at a frequency of 2400 MHz. The height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the
Degger [83]

Answer:

F = 2 × 10⁻³ N

Explanation:

Given:

frequency, f = 2400 MHz

Height, h = 25cm = 0.25 m

Area of the base, A = 30 cm x 30 cm = 900 cm² = 0.09 m²

Energy of the  microwave, E = 0.50 mJ = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J

Now, the time taken by the wave from top to the base, t = h/c

here, c is the speed of the light

thus,

t = 0.25/(3 x 10⁸) = 8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s

The radiation pressure P_r = Intensity/c

now, the intensity is given as:

I = Power/ area

also,

Power = Energy/ time = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J/8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s = 600000 W

thus,

I = 600000 W/ 0.09 m² = 6666666.6 W/m²

substituting the value in the formula for pressure due to radiation, we have

P_r = 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)

also

pressure = Force/ area

thus,

Force/ area = 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)

or

Force (F) = (6666666.6 W/m² × 0.09 m²)/(3 x 10⁸)

or

F = 2 × 10⁻³ N
