The current in a hair dryer measures 11 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 12 ohms. What is the voltage?

Physics

Valentin [98]3 years ago

Voltage is given by the formula

V = IR (Ohms law)

where V is the Voltage

I is the current

and R is the Resistance

Here it is given that the current is I=11

Resistance is R =12

so plugging this in the formula

V = IR

V= 11 * 12

V= 132 Volts

So the Voltage for the given dryer is 132 Volts

A block of weight 1200N is on an incline plane of 30° with the horizontal, a force P is applied to the body parallel to the plan
pshichka [43]

Answer:

a)  P = 807.85 N,  b)  P = 392.15 N,  c)  P = 444.12 N

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.

Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight

         sin θ = Wₓ / W

         cos θ = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin θ

         W_y = W cos θ

         Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N

          W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N

Y axis  

      N- W_y = 0

      N = W_y = 1039.23 N

Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement

a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static

       P -Wₓ -fr = 0

       P = Wₓ + fr

as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic

      fr = μ N

      fr = 0.20 1039.23

      fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

       P = 600+ 207.85

       P = 807.85 N

b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static

        P + fr -Wx = 0

       fr = μ N

       fr = 0.20 1039.23

        fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

        P =  Wₓ -fr

        P = 600 - 207,846

        P = 392.15 N

c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic

         P - Wₓ + fr = 0

         P = Wₓ - fr

         fr = 0.15 1039.23

         fr = 155.88 N

         P = 600 - 155.88

         P = 444.12 N

A scientist is designing a device that will mimic Earth's atmosphere by
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

1. Ultraviolet light (UV)

2. X-rays

3. Gamma-rays

Explanation:

Though there are different types of energy or electromagnetic waves with varying wavelengths, including the likes of Gamma X-rays, ultraviolet light, visible light, infrared radiation, and microwave radiation.

What is more certain is that the atmosphere blocked the high-energy waves from getting to the earth surface or biosphere such as Ultraviolet light (UV), X-rays and Gamma-rays

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is - 2.10 ×10−6C/m2. A proton is shot straight away from the plane at 2.
inn [45]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate electric field because of the plate is as follows.

         E = \frac{\sigma}{2 \times \epsilon_{o}}

            = \frac{2.10 \times 10^{-6}}{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}

           = 1.18 \times 10^{5} N/C

Now, we will consider that equilibrium of forces are present there. So,

                   ma = qE

       a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1.18 \times 10^{5}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

          = 1.13 \times 10^{13} m/s^2

According to the third equation of motion,

         v^{2} = 2 \times a \times d

or,      d = \frac{v^{2}}{2d}

             = \frac{(2.4 \times 10^{6})^{2}}{2 \times 1.13 \times 10^{13}}

             = 0.254 m

Thus, we can conclude that the proton will travel 0.254 m before reaching its turning point.
