How much energy does a pair of 800w hair straighteners transfer every second?

Answer: 800 J

Explanation:

Power is the rate between the energy transferred (E) and the time taken (t):

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

In this problem, the hair straightener has a power of P = 800 W. therefore, the energy transferred in t = 1 second is

$E=Pt=(800 W)(1 s)=800 J$

Power is a measure of the rate of energy or work done on a system. It has units of energy per time. In SI, Joules per second and is equal to the units of Watts. So, for an 800 Watts hair straightener, the energy transfer per second would be 800 Joules.

If an object suspended by a scale shows a weight of 3 N in air, and 2 N when submerged in water, the buoyant force on the submer

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

1 N

Explanation:

Buoyant Force: This is also called upthrust, It can be defined as the force which act upward exerted by a fluid when an object is placed in it.

The S.I unit is Newton.

From the question,

Buoyant force = Weight of the object in air- weight of the object when submerged in water.

U = W-W'.......................... Equation 1

Where U = upthrust, W = weight in air, W' = weight when submerged in water.

Given: W = 3 N, W' = 2 N

Substitute into equation 1

U = 3-2

W = 1 N

In which situation is maximum work considered to be done by a force?

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A) When the angle between the Force (F) and Displacement (x) is 0°, because, Work done (W) is directly proportional to the Cosine of the Angle between the Force applied and the resultant displacement of the subject.

W = F•x cos ∅

If ∅ = 0°,

W = F•x ===> Maximum Work Done.

If ∅ = 45°,

W = F•x/√2

If ∅ = 90°,

W = 0

If ∅ = 180°,

W = –F•x ===> Minimum Work Done.

A car battery with a 12 V emf and an internal resistance of 0.11 Ω is being charged with a current of 56 A. What are (a) the pot

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a)

V = 18.16 V

Part b)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Part c)

P = 672 Watt

Part d)

V = 5.84 V

Part e)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging mode

then the potential difference at the terminal of the cell is more than its EMF and it is given as

$\Delta V = E + i r$

here we have

$E = 12 V$

$i = 56 A$

$r = 0.11$

now we have

$\Delta V = 12 + (0.11)(56) = 18.16 V$

Part b)

Rate of energy dissipation inside the battery is the energy across internal resistance

so it is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

Part c)

Rate of energy conversion into EMF is given as

$P_{emf} = i E$

$P_{emf} = (56)(12)$

$P_{emf} = 672 Watt$

Now battery is giving current to other circuit so now it is discharging

now we have

Part d)

$V = E - i r$

$V = 12 - (56)(0.11)$

$V = 12 - 6.16 = 5.84 V$

Part e)

now the rate of energy dissipation is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

Explain the different methods that can be used to model the motion of an object.

Simora [160]

Answer:

You can describe the motion of an object by its position, speed, direction, and acceleration. An object is moving if its position relative to a fixed point is changing. idk if this helps.

A swing has a period of 10 seconds. What is its frequency ?

kow [346]

Frequency = 1 / (period)

Frequency = 1 / (10 seconds) = (1/10) ( / second) = 0.1 per second = <em>0.1 Hz</em>.
