An alternator provides 20 A of peak current at 100 V peak AC to a resistive electric heater. How much heating power is delivered

to the load?
Physics
1 answer:

-- The resistance of the heater is (volts/current) = 5 ohms

-- The heating (RMS) value of a sinusoidal AC is V(peak)/√2 .  For this particular alternator, V(peak)=100V, so the heating (RMS) equivalent is 70.71 V.

-- The heating power delivered to the electric heater is (E²/R).

Power = (100/√2)² / 5

Power = 5,000 / 5

<u>Power = 1,000 watts </u>

The first stage in the GAS model of stress is
Vladimir [108]
<span>The first stage in the Gas model of stress is alarm and mobilization. So the correct option in regards to the given question is option “d”. Hans Selye is the person that evolved this model and he has explained this model in complete details.  He has broken down his model into three stages. The first stage involves alarm and mobilization. The second stage includes resistance. The third and the final stage include the exhaustion stage. These are the stages that an organism goes through to restore back the balance when stress is exerted from outside. </span>

Suppose the earth is shaped as a sphere with radius 4,0004,000 miles and suppose it rotates once every 24 hours. How many miles
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1047 miles

Explanation:

The radius of the Earth is

r = 4000 (miles)

So its circumference, which is the total length of the equator, is given by

L=2\pi r= 2\pi(4000)=25133 mi

Now we know that the Earth rotates once every 24 hours. So the distance through which the equator moves in one hour is equal to its total length divided by the number of hours, 24:

L' = \frac{25133 mi}{24h}=1047 mi

The latent heat of fusion of alcohol is 25 kcal/kg and its melting point is -114 o C. It has a specific heat of 0.60 in its liqu
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Total energy is 170 kJ

Explanation:

Given data:

latent heat of fusion of alcohol is 25 kcal/kg

melting point of alcohol is -114 degree c

specific heat us 0.60 k cal/kg degree c

energy need for 2 kg solid alcohol is

for Melting:

Energy Q is calculated as

Energy, Q = 25 \times 2.0 kg = 50 kJ

Energy required for Heating liquid:

Energy, ΔH = 2.0 kg \times 0.60 \times (100°C) = 120 kJ

Total  energy = (50 kJ + 120 kJ) = 170 kJ

Which of the following statements is/are true? Select all correct answers. An orbital is the probability distribution function d
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The emission spectrum is always the same and can be used to identify the element and part of the Bohr model proposed that electrons in the hydrogen are located in particular orbits around the nucleos are True.

Explanation:

The Niels Bohr and quantic mecanic theorys are both based on the study of atomics spectrums. The atomic spectrum is a characteristic pattern of a light wavelenght emited wich is unique to each element.

<u>For example</u>, if we put some low pressure hydrogen in a glass tube and in the tp of the glass we apply a voltage big enough to produce a electric current in the hydrogen gas, the tube its going to emit light wich have a color dependig of the gas element in the interior. If we observe this light with a spectrometer we are going to see shining lines and each one of this lines have a wavelenght and diferent colors. This lines are called emission spectrum and the wavelength of that spectrum are unique to eache element.

<u>Summering up, </u>we can identify elements using the emission spectrum because any element produces the same spectrum than other element.

 According to Niels Bhor theory  the electron only can be in especific discret ratios to the nucleus. Where this electron moves himself in circukar orbits under the influence of the Coulomb attraction force.
