We know, U = m * g * h
U = 4000 * 9.8 * 20
U = 784000 J

In short, Your Answer would be: 784000 J or 784 KJ

Hope this helps!

A 120 V potential difference is applied to a space heater that dissipates 674 W during operation. (a) What is its resistance dur
Annette [7]

Answer:

(a) 21.36 ohms

(b) 5.62 A

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Potential difference, V = 120 V

Power, P = 674 W

(a) Power is given as:

P = V²/R

Where R is resistance

=> R = V²/P

R = 120²/674

R = 14400/674

R = 21.36 ohms

(b) Power is also given as:

P = I*V

Where I = Current (time rate of flow of Electric charge)

=> I = P/V

I = 674/120

I = 5.62 A

(9) Acceleration due to gravity is defined as the acceleration between two massive bodies when they are moving under free fall.

The relation between g and G is given by :

g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}

Where

G is universal gravitational constant

M is mass of the earth

r is distance
