A hairdryer uses 1500 J of electrical energy in 1 second. The hairdryer changes 1300 J of this to useful thermal energy in 1 sec
Katarina [22]

200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

Steps

  • The hairdryer is provided with 1500 J of electrical energy per second
  • Of this 1500 J, 1300 J of energy is actually used and converted to useful thermal energy per second
  • The remaining energy, 1500 - 1300 = 200 J is dissipated

Dissipated energy

  • The energy that is not efficiently transported or changed is wasted energy.
  • We cannot create or destroy energy.
  • An employable type of energy is created through transformation.
  • Only a portion of energy that is changed or transferred can be done so in a way that is helpful.

Thus, 200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

2. In a certain fish, blue scales (BB) and red scales (bb) are codominant. When a fish has the
Evgen [1.6K]

Upon crossing BB with bb, we will get a hybrid of Bb.

  • Codominance is a phenomena in genetics where two alleles (different forms of the same gene) express themselves equally in an organism. As a result, characteristics linked to each allele are shown at the same time.
  • The MN blood group system in humans is an illustration of codominance. M and N alleles control the MN blood type. Red blood cells from people who are homozygous for the M allele carry a surface molecule known as the M antigen. On their red blood cells, those who are homozygous for the N allele contain the N antigen. A heterozygote is a person who carries both antigens.
  • (a) Genotype of blue scales fish will be BB.
  • (b) Genotype of blue scales fish will be bb.
  • (c) Genotype of blue scales fish will be Bb.

So, in this case B and b alleles will express equally.
