Power (rate of using energy) = (voltage) x (current)

Power of this heating element = (120 V) x (3.2 A) = 384 watts


The easy way:

     384 watts = 0.384 kilowatt

     (0.384 kilowatt) x (5 hours) = 1.92 kilowatt-hour


Another way:
     
                            384 watts = 384 joules per second .

        (384 joule/sec) x (3600 sec/hour) x (5 hours)  

=      (384 x 3600 x 5) (joules)  =  6,912,000 joules.

Wouldn't it be 110V * 3.2A * 5 hours? 

The problem shows 110V not 120V

So it would be 110V * 3.2A = 352

And 352 * 5 = 1760

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2 toward the north. A second car starts from rest 4.0 s later at the
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

the correct solution is 13 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematic problem, let's use accelerated rectilinear motion relationships.

For the first car it has an accelerometer of 2.0 m/s²

       x = v₀₁ t + ½ a₁ t²

The second car leaves the same point, but 4.0 seconds later

       x = v₀₂ (t-4) + ½ a₂ (t-4)²

With this form we use the same time for both cars.

The initial speeds are zero for both vehicles leave the rest, at the point where they are located has the same position

        x = ½ a₁ t²

        x = ½ a₂ (t-4)²

Let's solve

       a₁  t² = a₂ (t-4)²

      a₁/a₂ t² = t² -2 4 t + 16

      t² (1- 2.0 / 4.0) - 8 t +16

      t² 0.5 - 8 t +16 = 0

      t² -16 t + 32 = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

     t = [16 ±√( 16² - 4 32)] / 2  

     t = ½ (16 ± 11,3)

Solutions

     t1 = 13.66 s

     t2 = 2.34 s

These are the mathematical solutions for the meeting point, but car 2 leaves after 4 seconds, so the only solution is 13.66 s

the correct solution is 13 s, if you have to select one the nearest 12s

A horizontal force of 200 N is applied to move a 55 kg television set across a 10 m level surface. What is the work done by the
vivado [14]

Answer:

The work done is "2000 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 200 N

Mass,

m = 55 kg

Displacement,

d = 10 m

Now,

The work done will be:

⇒  Work \ done= Force\times displacement

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒                     =200\times 10

⇒                     =2000 \ J
