Hey :)

The water potential of pure water in an open container is zero because there is no solute and the pressure in the container is zero

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why does the total amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same?

snow_tiger [21]

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that, in an isolated system, energy remains constant and can not be created or destroyed, only transferred from one form to another. This law was created by Julius Robert Mayer.

A tank is filled with an ideal gas at 400 K and pressure of 1.00 atm.

bekas [8.4K]

To find the temperature it is necessary to use the expression and concepts related to the ideal gas law.

Mathematically it can be defined as

$PV=nRT$

Where

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

When the number of moles and volume is constant then the expression can be written as

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

Or in practical terms for this exercise depending on the final temperature:

$T_2 = \frac{P_2T_1}{P_1}$

Our values are given as

$T_1 = 400K\\P_1 = 1atm\\P_2 = 2atm$

Replacing

$T_2 = \frac{(2)(400)}{1}\\T_2 = 800K$

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 800K

What stores energy for a quick release in a cell?

luda_lava [24]

It is the mitochondria of a cell that stores energy for a quick release. Mitochondria break down glucose to release the energy for cells to use. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

How can you tell that this paragraph uses a quotation? Check all that apply?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer- There are two reasons that we know quotations have been used first is the use of of name of the person who quoted it and secondly the quotation is written inside the quotation marks.

Explanation- Quotation is nothing but using a line that has been already quoted by someone somewhere. Such sentences are normally written inside quotation marks. In the above given paragraph the name of the person who quotes the sentence is also given hence we know that our quotation has been used.
