A toaster using a Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V. When it is switched on at 28 ∘С, the heating element carries an in

itial current of 1.36 A. A few seconds later the current reaches the steady value of 1.23 A. (a) What is the final temperature of the element? The average value of the temperature coefficient of resistivity for Nichrome over the relevant temperature range is 4.5×10−4(∘C−1). (b) What is the power dissipated in the heating element initially and when the current reaches 1.23 A?

Answer:

The final temperature of the element = 262.67°C

The power dissipated in the heating element initially = 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A = 147.60 W

Explanation:

Our given parameters include;

A Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V.

Voltage (V) = 120V

Initial Current (I₁) = 1.36 A

Initial Temperature (T₁) = 28°C

Final Current (I₂) = 1.23 A

Final Temperature (T₂) = unknown ????

Temperature dependencies of resistance is given by:

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]            ----------------------    (1)

in which R₁ is the resistance at temperature T₁

R_{T(2) is the resistance at temperature T₂

Given that V= IR

R = \frac{V}{I}

Therefore, the resistance at temperature 28°C is;

R_{28}= \frac{120V}{1.36A}

= 88.24Ω

R_{T(2) = \frac{120V}{1.23A}

= 97.56Ω

From (1) above;

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]      

97.56 = 88.24 [ 1 + 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)]

\frac{97.56}{88.24}= 1+(4.5*10^{-4})(T-28^0C)

1.1056 - 1 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)

0.1056 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(T₂-28°C)

\frac{0.1056}{4.5*10^{-4}}= T-28^0C

T - 28° C = 234.67

T = 234.67 + 28° C

T = 262.67 ° C

(b)

What is the power dissipated in the heating element initially and when the current reaches 1.23 A

The power dissipated in the heating element initially can be calculated as:

P = I²₁R₂₈

P = (1.36A)²(88.24Ω)

P = 163.209 W

P ≅ 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A can be calculated as:

P= I^2_2R_{T^0C

P = (1.23)²(97.56Ω)

P = 147.598524

P ≅ 147.60 W

How magnitude, distance and velocity affects motion?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Velocity is the rate of motion in a specific direction. ... My velocity is 30 kilometers per hour that-a-way. Average speed is described as a measure of distance divided by time. Velocity can be constant, or it can change (acceleration).

3. A model rocket takes 0.05 seconds to speed up from rest to its maximum velocity of 80 m/s.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time it took to produce such change. The formula then reads:

a = \frac{change-in-velocity}{time} = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

Where Vf is the final velocity of the object, (in our case 80 m/s)

Vi is the initial velocity of the object (in our case 0 m/s because the object was at rest)

and t is the time it took to change from the Vi to the Vf (in our case 0.05 seconds.

Therefore we have:

a = \frac{80 m/s - 0 m/s}{0.05 sec} = 1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Notice that the units of acceleration in the SI system are \frac{m}{s^2} (meters divided square seconds)

PLEASEEE HELPPP!!!
Alja [10]

Given :

A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor a distance of 8.1 m.

The force of friction between the refrigerator and the floor is 230 N.

To Find :

How much work has been performed by the mover on the refrigerator.

Solution :

Since, refrigerator is moving with constant velocity.

So, force applied by the mover is also 230 N ( equal to force of friction ).

Now, work done in order to move the refrigerator is :

W = Force\times distance\\\\W = 230 \times 8.1\ N\ m\\\\W = 1863\ N\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
