The current in a hair dryer measures 19 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 14 ohms. What is the voltage?

Voltage  =  (current) x (resistance)

             =  (19 A)  x  (14 ohms)  =  266 volts .

Note:  Be careful using that thing ! 

It's dissipating

       I² R  =  (19 A)² x (14 ohms)  =  5,054 watts ! ! !

That's an awful lot of power for a blow-dryer ! 

The dryer is certainly not using very much of that power to run the fan. 
Most of it is being used to heat air.  5 kilowatts is more power than most
toasters or microwave ovens use, so please be careful with how much of
your hair or skin you expose to that hot-air blast.  You could probably cook
a meatloaf with it.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

= 4.38 × 10³⁴kgm²/s

Explanation:

Given that,

mass of moon m = 9.5 × 10²²kg

Orbital radius r = 4.28  × 10⁵km

Orbital period  T = 28.9days

T = 28.9  × 24 × 60 × 60

   = 2,496,960s

Angular momentum of the moon about the planet

L = mvr

L = mr²w

L = mr^2\frac{2\pi }{T} \\\\L = \frac{9.5 \times 10^2^2 \times(4.28\times10^8)^2\times2\times3.14}{2496960} \\\\L = 4.389.5 \times 10^3^4kgm^2/s

How would you obtain a mean value for the specific heat<br> capacity of a material?
lidiya [134]
The heat capacity and the specific heat are related by C=cm or c=C/m. The mass m, specific heat c, change in temperature ΔT, and heat added (or subtracted) Q are related by the equation: Q=mcΔT. Values of specific heat are dependent on the properties and phase of a given substance.

Satuarated solution changes into unsatuarated by heating give reason​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Due to application of heat on a saturated solution, the interparticle space increases due to increase in the kinetic energy of the particles which allows more solutes to dissolve in the solution thereby making it unsaturated.

A jetliner has a velocity of 95 m/s. What is the displacement of the jetliner at t=3.0 seconds?
charle [14.2K]
Distance = speed / time

speed = 95 m/s
time = 3 s

distance = 95 / 3 m

displacement = 95/3 m or 32 m (2 s.f.)
