20. There are two electrical devices, one is electrical kettle of 2KW-200V and
RUDIKE [14]

Electrical kettle:  

P = 2 KW = 2000 W

U = 200 V

⇒  I = P/U = 2000 / 200 = 10 A

We apply the Law of Ohm:

R = U / I = 200V / 10A = <u>20 Ω</u>

=======

Electrical heater:

P = 1 KW = 1000 W

U = 240 V

⇒  I = P/U = 1000 / 240 = 4,16 A

We apply the Law of Ohm:

R = U / I = 240V / 4,16A = <u>57,69 Ω</u>

<u>Answer:</u>

The device with the highest resistance is <u>the electric heater.</u>

<u></u>

At 2:00 p.m. a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:30 p.m. it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:30 the
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The acceleration is exactly 40 mi/h² as shown

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 30 mi/h

final velocity of the car, v = 50 mi/h

change in velocity, ΔV = v - u

                               ΔV = 50 mi/h - 30 mi/h = 20 mi/h

initial time, t₁ = 2:00 PM

final time, t₂ = 2:30 PM

Change in time, Δt = t₂ - t₁

                           Δt = 2: 30 - 2:00 = 30 mins  = 0.5 hour

Acceleration is given as change in velocity per change in time;

a = ΔV /  Δt

a = \frac{20 \ mi/h}{0.5 \ h}\\\\a = 40 \ mi/h^2 \ (shown)\\\\

Therefore, the acceleration is exactly 40 mi/h² as shown.

B. the hockey player is moving at a speed of 9. 5 m/s. if it takes him 2 seconds to come to a stop under constant acceleration,
balu736 [363]

The hockey player is moving at a speed of 9. 5 m/s. if it takes him 2 seconds to come to a stop under constant acceleration, will be s = 9.5 m.

The branch of physics that defines motion with respect to space and time, ignoring the cause of that motion, is known as kinematics. Kinematics equations are a set of equations that can derive an unknown aspect of a body’s motion if the other aspects are provided.

These equations link five kinematic variables:

Displacement (denoted by Δx)

Initial Velocity v0

Final Velocity denoted by v

Time interval (denoted by t)

Constant acceleration (denoted by a)

These equations define motion at either constant velocity or at constant acceleration. Because kinematics equations are only applicable at a constant acceleration or a constant speed, we cannot use them if either of the two is changing.

v = u + at

0 = 9.5 + a (2)

a = - 9.5 /2  m/s^{2}

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as

0 =  (9.5)^{2} + 2* (- 9.5 /2) * s

-  (9.5)^{2}  = - 9.5 s

s = 9.5 m

Planet that has an orbit that intersects the orbit of pluto
Scilla [17]
<h2>Answer: Neptune </h2>

The dwarf planet Pluton, <u>has the most eccentric orbit</u> (more elliptical and elongated) of all the planets, and as a consequence its orbit is "intersected" by the orbit of Neptune.

However, <u>despite this intersection, there is no collision risk between these two bodies</u>, since the orbit of Pluto is located in an orbital plane different from that of the other planets and therefore different from that of Neptune, its nearest neighbor. In addition, the orbit of Pluton is inclined 17\° on the the ecliptic plane (plane where the other planets move around the Sun).
