You are to drive to an interview in another town, at a distance of 310 km on an expressway. The interview is at 11:15 a.m. You p

lan to drive at 100 km/h, so you leave at 8:00 a.m. to allow some extra time. You drive at that speed for the first 100 km, but then construction work forces you to slow to 42.0 km/h for 42.0 km. What would be the least speed needed for the rest of the trip to arrive in time for the interview

Sloan [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Time to cover first 100 km = 1 hour.

time remaining = 3.15 - 1 = 2.15 hour .

Time to cover next 42 km = 1 hour .

Time remaining = 2.15-1 = 1.15 hour.

Distance to be covered = 310 - 142

= 168 km

least speed needed = distance remaining / time remaining

= 168 / 1.15

= 146.08 km / h .

The heater element of a particular 120-V toaster is a 8.9-m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.86 mm. The resistivity
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Power, P = 722.96 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage, V = 120 V

Length of nichrome wire, l = 8.9 m

Diameter of wire, d = 0.86 mm

Radius of wire, r = 0.43 mm = 0.00043 m

Resistivity of wire, \rho=1.3\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m

We need to find the power drawn by this heater. Power is given by :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

And, R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}

P=\dfrac{V^2\times A}{\rho\times l}

P=\dfrac{120^2\times \pi (0.00043)^2}{1.3\times 10^{-6}\times 8.9}

P = 722.96 watts

So, the power drawn by this heater element is 722.96 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Scrat [10]

Buhrs atomic model differed from ruthofords because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding the nucleus. This means that, Ruthoford believed that electrons can't do very much. However, Buhrs' model showed that electrons are much more powerful than anyone else believes they can be.
