Physics
1 answer:
serg [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Radiation moves out of the microwave into waves causing heat.

Explanation:

Inside your microwave oven, electrical energy is transformed into EM energy in the magnetron. When the microwave photons interact with food, food molecules are physically agitated, transforming the EM energy into kinetic energy, or energy of movement   .

Hope it helped!

A 230-km-long high-voltage transmission line 2.0 cm in diameter carries a steady current of 1,100 A. If the conductor is copper
Molodets [167]

Answer:

28.23 years

Explanation:

I = 1100 A

L = 230 km = 230, 000 m

diameter = 2 cm

radius, r = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Area, A = 3.14 x 0.01 x 0.01 = 3.14 x 10^-4 m^2

n = 8.5 x 10^28 per cubic metre

Use the relation

I = n e A vd

vd = I / n e A

vd = 1100 / (8.5 x 10^28 x 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.14 x 10^-4)

vd = 2.58 x 10^-4 m/s

Let time taken is t.

Distance = velocity x time

t = distance / velocity = L / vd

t = 230000 / (2.58 x 10^-4) = 8.91 x 10^8 second

t = 28.23 years
