Answer:

The current in the heater is 12.5 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of electric heater, P₁ = 1400 W

Power of toaster, P₂ = 1150 W

Power of electric grill, P₃ = 1560 W

All three appliances are connected in parallel across a 112 V emf source. We need to find the current in the heater. We know that in parallel combination of resistors the current flowing in every branch of resistor divides while the voltage is same.

Electric power, P_1=V\times I_1

I_1=\dfrac{P_1}{V}

I_1=\dfrac{1400\ W}{112\ V}

I_1=12.5\ A

So, the current in the heater is 12.5 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

A. In your own words, define what a longitudinal wave is.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Longitudinal wave is a type of wave in which the the movement of the wave particle is parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This simply means that the wave particles is in the same or opposite direction to the wave propagation.

B. Sound waves- These are longitudinal waves because its medium particles through which the sound is transported oscillates parallel to the direction of the movement of the sound wave.

Which of the following cannot be determined from the spectrum of a star?
Aneli [31]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above would be the last option. It is the chemicals in the core of the star that cannot be determined from the spectrum of a star. Spectrum shows the different classification of the stars depending on their spectral characteristics. It usually involves the light, the wavelength and the distance.

Can a plane mirror produce a real image? Explain.
Komok [63]
I don't think so, because in order to produce an image, you need a surface behind the mirror. The light will hit the mirror, then it will bounce it back in your eyes and you see the image.

A light ray in air enters and passes through a block of glass. What can be stated with regard to its speed after it emerges from
Furkat [3]

A light ray in air enters and passes through a block of glass , the speed will remain same after it emerges from the block

When a light ray enters into the glass then the speed of the light will get decreased because as a light ray enters into a denser medium , the speed of light get decreased . But when the light ray emerges out from glass , it going from denser to rarer medium , due to which speed will increase and come to same value as it was while entering the glass .
