The following three appliances are connected to a 120 volt house circuit: (i) a toaster, 1200 Watts, (ii) a coffee pot, 750 Watt

s, and (iii) a microwave, 600 Watt. If all operate at the same time, what total current would they draw

Answer:

<h2>They would draw a total of 21.25 amperes</h2>

Explanation:

The total power consumed is

1200 W+ 750 W + 600 W= 2550 Watts

The formula relating the power consumed, the voltage and the current is given as

P=IV---------------1

given that the voltage supply is 120V

2550=I*120\\\I=\frac{2550}{120} \\\\I= 21.25amps

A 22kg Accelerates at a rate of 2.3 m/s. What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the bike?
Tcecarenko [31]

magnitude of the net force = mass x acceleraton

                                             = 22 x 2.3

                                             =50.6 N

If Mrs. Reichelt throws a chromebook, because it won't login correctly, with a force of 8N, and the chromebook accelerates at 5m
suter [353]

Answer:

1.6 kg

Step-by-step Solution:

Since Force = mass × acceleration we have:

F = 8N

a= 5 m/s^2

m = ?

By plugging the values above into F=ma we obtain:

F=ma\\\\8=m(5)\\\\\frac{8}{5}=\frac{m(5)}{5}\\\\m=\frac{8}{5}=1.6

Therefore, the Chromebook has a mass of 1.6 kilograms.

In both a dry cell and a wet cell battery, what causes the production of an electrical current.
koban [17]

Answer:

a. chemical reaction

Explanation:

In both a dry and wet cell battery, electric currents are produced through chemical reactions.

Both cells are together called electrochemical cells.

  • In these cells, chemical reactions produce an electric current.
  • They are devices that converts chemical energy into electrical energy
  • The reactions here are spontaneous redox reactions.
  • This causes the current to flow on their own in the circuit.

A child is sitting on the seat of a swing with ropes 5 m long. Her father pulls the swing back until the ropes make a 30o angle
morpeh [17]

Answer:

v = 3.7 m/s

Explanation:

As the swing starts from rest, if we choose the lowest point of the trajectory to be the zero reference level for gravitational potential energy, and if we neglect air resistance, we can apply energy conservation as follows:

m. g. h = 1/2 m v²

The only unknown (let alone the speed) in the equation , is the height from which the swing is released.

At this point, the ropes make a 30⁰ angle with the vertical, so we can obtain the vertical length at this point as L cos 30⁰, appying simply cos definition.

As the height we are looking for is the difference respect from the vertical length L, we can simply write as follows:

h = L - Lcos 30⁰ = 5m -5m. 0.866 = 4.3 m

Replacing in the energy conservation equation, and solving for v, we get:

v = √2.g.(L-Lcos30⁰) = √2.9.8 m/s². 4.3 m =3.7 m/s
