marshall27 [118]

Answer:

P(3600)=593.247W

Explanation:

First, let's find the voltage through the resistor using ohm's law:

V=IR=20*8=160V

AC power as function of time can be calculated as:

P(t)= V*I*cos(\phi)-V*I*cos(2 \omega t-\phi)  (1)

Where:

\phi=Phase\hspace{3}angle\\\omega= Angular\hspace{3}frequency

Because of the problem doesn't give us additional information, let's assume:

\phi=0\\\omega=2 \pi f=2*\pi *(60)=120\pi

Evaluating the equation (1) in t=3600 (Because 1h equal to 3600s):

P(3600)=160*8*cos(0)-160*8*cos(2*120\pi*3600-0)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*cos(2714336.053)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*0.5365255751\\P(3600)=1280-686.7527361=593.2472639\approx=593.247W

True or False: As water evaporates, it removes a lot of heat with it.
Sloan [31]

Answer:

True, when it evaporates heat goes down, because it’s up the the sky.

Facts: In order for water to evaporate, hydrogen bonds must be broken. Water's heat of vaporization is 540 cal/g.

Because of the need for so much energy to evaporate, as water leaves the surface from which it is evaporating and removes a lot of heat with it.
