Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

mass of water = 4 Kg

Water is heated to = 800 W

time of immersion = 10 min

= 10 x 60 = 600 s

using equation of specific heat

Q = m S ΔT

S is the specific heat capacity of water which is equal to 4182 J/kg°C.

and another formula of heat

Q = Pt

now,

P t = m S ΔT

800 x 600 = 4 x 4182 x ΔT

ΔT = 29° C

temperature increased is equal to ΔT = 29° C

Hence, the correct answer is option C

Answer:

$1.65\times {-3} \text { s}$

Explanation:

Current is the rate of flow of charge.

$I=\dfrac{Q}{t}$

$t = \dfrac{Q}{I}$

$t = \dfrac{30.0}{18.2\times10^3} =1.65\times {0-3} = 1.65\times {-3} \text { s}$

What is a derived physical quantity? Name three derived physical quantities, and for each, give its S.I. units and its U.S. Cust

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Physical quantity is a physical property of an object or material that can be expressed by magnitude and unit.

The derived physical quantities are the type of physical quantities which can be expressed or defined by other physical quantities, called the base quantities. Example: Area, Volume, Velocity

Area- SI Unit: m², U.S. Customary unit: acre

Volume- SI Unit: m³, U.S. Customary unit: cubic inch

Velocity- SI Unit: m/s, U.S. Customary unit: ft/s

watts = work per second.

work is mgh = 3x10x50=1500

watts out = 1500

Watts used = 2000

eff=1500/2000=75%
