A hair dryer draws a current of 10 A plugged into a 120 V outlet. What is the resistance of the hair dryer?
Ganezh [65]
<span>This problem can be solved by the formula used to find resistance. The formula is R=V/I which basically means divide the Voltage by the Current to find the Resistance in an object. Ohm's law.</span>

The coefficient of kinetic friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 0.40 the weight of the object
Ann [662]

The frictional force of an object is the product of the normal force and coefficient of kinetic friction. Here the frictional force acting on the object  is 16.4 N.

<h3>What is frictional force?</h3>

Frictional force is a kind of force acting on a body to resist it from motion. Thus, the direction of the force will be in negative with the magnitude. Frictional force is the product of coefficient of friction and the normal force.

The normal  force acting on the object of mass 4.2 Kg is N = mg

N = 4.2 Kg × 9.8 m/s² = 41.16 N

Frictional force = ц N

                         = 0.40 × 41.16 N

                         = 16.4 N.

Therefore, the frictional force acting between the surface of the object and the floor is 16.4 N

Suppose a tank filled with water has a liquid column with a height of 10 meters. If the area is 2 square meters (2 m²), what's t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

196000 N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Height (h) = 10 m

Area (A) = 2 m²

Force (F) =.?

Next, we shall determine the pressure in the tank.

This can be obtained as follow:

P = dgh

Where

P is the pressure.

d is the density of the liquid.

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is the height.

Height (h) = 10 m

Density (d) of water = 1000 kg/m³

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Pressure (P) =...?

P = dgh

P = 1000 × 9.8 × 10

P = 98000 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure acting on the tank is 98000 N/m²

Finally, we shall determine the force of gravity acting on the column of water as follow:

Area (A) = 2 m²

Pressure (P) = 98000 N/m²

Force (F) =.?

Pressure (P) = Force (F) /Area (A)

P = F /A

98000 = F/ 2

Cross multiply

F = 98000 × 2

F = 196000 N

Therefore, the force of gravity acting on the column of water is 196000 N
