James Prescott Joule demonstrated that work could generate heat using his churn. In order to truly demonstrate that energy is co

nserved, the next logical step would have been to convert that heat entirely back to work. why was this not done?

Answer:

Heat can be converted into work as that is the principle on which steam turbines work and generate electricity. But in order to achieve the result we need to modify the apparatus in such a way that heat is extracted from the fluid whose temperature increases due to churning. This requires a modified setup which is different from the one used by Joule. The relationship that work can be converted into heat and vice versa both requires different apparatus to be accomplished as a machine can act as either as one that does work or one on which work can be done.

All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 270-W blender, and a 80-W lamp are plugged into the same outle
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Explanation:

given data

toaster = 1140-W

blender = 270-W

lamp = 80-W

voltage = 120 V

solution

we know that current is express as

current = power ÷ voltage   ......................1

here voltage is same in all three device

so

current by toaster is

I = \frac{1140}{120}

I = 9.5 A

and

current by blender

I = \frac{270}{120}

I = 2.25 A

and

current by lamp is

I = \frac{80}{120}

I = 0.667 A

so here device in parallel so

total current is = 9.5 A + 2.25 A + 0.667 A

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

which of these best explains why the hydrogen atoms in a water molecule are attracted to CI ions in sodium chloride
matrenka [14]
The oxygen has more electronegativity (3.44), making hydrogen more 'positive'. Hydrogen will be attracted to Cl since it is more 'negative'. Electronegativity(EN) of H is 2.2 whereas Cl has EN of 3.16
