<h2>Energy used by heater is 8.21 x 10⁶ J</h2>

Explanation:

Energy = Power x Time

Power = Voltage x Current

Voltage = 120 V

Current = 9.5 A

Power = Voltage x Current

Power = 120 x 9.5 = 1140 W

Time = 2 hours = 2 x 60 x 60 = 7200 s

Energy = Power x Time

Energy = 1140 x 7200

Energy = 8208000 J

Energy used by heater is 8.21 x 10⁶ J

Viktor [21]

Answer:

B. for an object that floats

Explanation:

For an object to float the weight of the object must be balanced by the buoyancy force.

However an object will sink if the  magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the amount of fluid that has the same volume as the object.

Describe the formation of galaxies.
olga2289 [7]

Today's cosmologists assume that matter was not uniformly distributed in the universe after the Big Bang. Dense places attract more matter than the surrounding area according to their gravitational forces. Over the course of billions of years, these gas agglomerations eventually led to the formation of the galaxies we see today.

A stationary horn emits a sound with a frequency of 228 Hz. A car is moving toward the horn on a straight road with constant spe
stiks02 [169]

Answer: 26.84 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Original frequency of the horn f_o=228\ Hz

Apparent frequency f'=246\ Hz

Speed of sound is V=340\ m/s

Doppler frequency is

\Rightarrow f'=f_o\left(\dfrac{v+v_o}{v-v_s}\right)

Where,

v_o=\text{Velocity of the observer}\\v_s=\text{Velocity of the source}

Insert values

\Rightarrow 246=228\left[\dfrac{340+v_o}{340-0}\right]\\\\\Rightarrow 366.84=340+v_o\\\Rightarrow v_o=26.8\ m/s

Thus, the speed of the car is 26.84\ m/s
