Answer:0.612 kilowatts

Explanation:

Current=5.1 amperes

Voltage=120 volts

Power=current x voltage

Power=5.1 x 120

Power=612

power=612 watts

power=612/1000 kilowatts

Power=0.612 kilowatts

Answer:

<h2>The magnitude of the magnetic is 0.145 T</h2>

Explanation:

Given :

Speed of proton $v = 3.2 \times 10^{6}\frac{m}{s}$

Mass of proton $m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27}$ Kg

The force on the proton in magnetic field is given by,

$F = q (v \times B)$

$F = qvB \sin \theta$

But $\sin 90 = 1$ (∵ Force is perpendicular to the velocity so $\theta = 90$ )

$F = qvB$

When particle enter in magnetic field at the angle of 90° so particle moves in circle

So force is given by,

$F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}$

Where $r =$ radius but in our case 0.23 m, $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}$ C

By comparing above two equation,

$B = \frac{mv}{qr}$

$B = \frac{1.67 \times 10^{-27} \times 3.2 \times 10^{6} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.23 }$

$B = 0.145$ T

Which has the lowest heat capacity? (values of heat capacities and calculations are unnecessary).

Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is Metals.

Generally, the specific heat of metals is low. Very high specific heat exists in water.A physical feature of matter known as heat capacity or thermal capacity is the quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature. Heat capacity is measured in joules per kelvin (J/K), the SI unit. A broad property is heat capacity. Use the following equation to determine heat capacity: heat capacity = E / T, where E is the quantity of delivered heat energy and T is the change in temperature. The formula would be as follows, for instance, if it takes 2,000 Joules of energy to raise a block's temperature by 5 degrees Celsius: 2,000 Joules per °C is the heat capacity.

The mass of calcium phosphate the reaction can produce is <u>6.076</u> grams.

<h3>What is mass?</h3>

Mass is a numerical measure of inertia, which is a basic feature of all matter. It is, in effect, a body of matter's resistance to a change in speed or position caused by the application of a force.

In the International System of Units (SI), the kilogram is the unit of mass.

Given;

Mass of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO₃)₂) = 96.1 g

Mass of calcium phosphate=?

The chemical equation is found as;

3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2Na₃PO₄ → 6NaNO₃ + Ca₃(PO4)₂

3 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ produces 1 mole of Ca₃(PO4)molar mass of calcium phosphate is 164 g/mol

Moles are found as the ratio of the mass of the compound and its molar mass. Moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ is n.

n = 96.1/164 = 0.5859 moles

Moles of Ca3(PO4)2 produced ;

N=0.0589 ×(1/3) = 0.0196 moles

The molar mass of calcium phosphate is 310 g/mol and the mass of calcium phosphate produced will be;

M=0.0196×310

M = 6.076 g

Hence,the mass of calcium phosphate the reaction can produce is <u>6.076</u> grams.
