Answer:

Explanation:

Voltage, V = 120 V

Current, i = 4.5 A

mass of water, m = 0.525 kg

initial temperature of water, T1 = 23°C

Final temperature of water, T2 = 100 °C

specific heat of water, c = 4.18 x 1000 J/kg °c

let the time taken is t.

Heat given by the heater = heat gain by the water

V x i x t = m x c x (T2 - T1)

120 x 4.5 x t = 0.525 x 4.18 x 1000 x (100 - 23)

540 t = 47701.5

t = 88.34 s

Answer:

It will take 313.376 sec to raise temperature to boiling point

Explanation:

We have given that potential difference V = 120 Volt

Current i = 4.50 A

So resistance R=\frac{V}{i}=\frac{120}{4.50}=26.666ohm

Heat flow in resistor will be equal to Q=i^2Rt

It is given that this heat is used for boiling the water

Mass of the water = 0.525 kg = 525 gram

Specific heat of water 4.186 J/gram/°C

Initial temperature is given as 23°C

Boiling temperature of water = 100°C

So change in temperature = 100-23 = 77°C

Heat required to raise the temperature of water Q=mc\Lambda T

So 4.50^2\times 26.666\times t=525\times 4.186\times 77

t = 313.376 sec

So it will take 313.376 sec to raise temperature to boiling point

If you see a sedimentary rock outcrop and red layers of sand are on top of pale yellow layers of sand, what do you know for sure
neonofarm [45]

Answer: The yellow layer is definitely older than the red layer

Explanation: According to Nicolaus Steno's law of superposition and original horizontality. Older rocks underlie younger rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are usually deposited in horizontal layers in which each stratigraphic layer is laid down before another can be deposited upon it.

The red layer, in addition to being older, is also likely to have undergone intense oxidation due to earlier exposure.

The distance between slits in a double-slit experiment is decreased by a factor of 2. If the distance between fringes is small c
Elodia [21]

Answer:

the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Explanation:

To find how the distance between fringes is modified you can use the following formula for the calculation of the distance between fringes:

\Delta y=\frac{\lambda D}{d}

D: distance to the screen

d: distance between slits

λ: wavelength of the light

if d is decreased by a factor of 2, that is d'=1/2d, you have:

\Delta y'=\frac{\lambda D}{d'}=\frac{\lambda D}{(1/2)d}=2\Delta y

hence, the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2
