A 460 W heating unit is designed to operate with an applied potential difference of 120 V (a) By what percentage will its heat o

utput drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V? Assume no change in resistance. %(b) If you took the variation of resistance with temperature into account, would the actual drop in heat output be larger or smaller than that calculated in (a)?

Answer:

(a) = -0.16%

(b) = smaller

Explanation:

given

power = 460 W

potential difference = 120 V

(a) what percentage will   its heat output drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V ?

we know p = \frac{v^2}{R} .....................(i)

we need to find change in power

\Delta P = \frac{\Delta (V^2)}{R}  

\Delta P = \frac{2 V \Delta V}{R}..............(ii)

from equations we get

\frac{\Delta P}{P} =  \frac{2 \Delta V}{V}

\frac{\Delta P}{P} = 2 \frac{110 -120}{120}

\frac{\Delta P}{P} =  -2(\frac{10}{120})

\frac{\Delta P}{P} = - 0.16 %

(b)

if we increase temperature resistance will increase and decrease with decrease in temperature and we know power is inversely proportional to resistance so if potential decrease and it would cause drop in power

and due to this increment of heating power resistance will decrease so actual drop in the power would  be smaller

A 100 kg box sits on an incline held at rest by a very thin rope attached to another mass hanging as shown. The force of frictio
MAVERICK [17]

If friction is acting along the plane upwards

then in this case we will have

For equilibrium of 100 kg box on inclined plane we have

mgsin\theta = F_f + T

also for other side of hanging mass we have

T = Mg = 50(9.8) = 490 N

now we have

100(9.8)sin\theta = 100 + 490

980sin\theta = 590

sin\theta = 0.602

\theta = 37 degree

In other case we can assume that friction will act along the plane downwards

so now in that case we will have

mgsin\theta + F_f = T

also we have

T = Mg = 50(9.8) N

now we have

100(9.8)sin\theta + 100 = 50(9.8)

980sin\theta + 100 = 490

980 sin\theta = 490 - 100

sin\theta = 0.397

\theta = 23.45 degree

<em>So the range of angle will be 23.45 degree to 37 degree</em>
