7 0

From Ohm's law . . . Resistance = (voltage) / (current)

Resistance = (120 volts) / (7.6 Amperes)

<em>Resistance = 15.8 Ω</em>

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Specific heat of liquid 1.258 \ J/g^0C.

Explanation:

We know in thermal equilibrium :

Loss in heat by iron block = Gain in heat by liquid .

Specific heat of iron = 0.45 J/g^0C.  { source internet }

Now , loss in heat by iron block = mC_{iron}\Delta T=450\times 0.45\times 57.6=11664\ J.

Heat gain by liquid=mC_{liquid}\Delta T=450\times C_{liquid}\times 20.6=9270\times C_{liquid}.

Equating both we get :

C_{liquid}=1.258 \ J/g^0C.

What do we know about the relative strength of the electric field around each object?
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A charged object in an electric field experiences a force due to the field. The electric field strength, E, at a point in the field is defined as the force per unit charge on a positive test charge placed at that point.

Each element has an atomic number state which is meant by atomic number
netineya [11]

Answer: The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and isotopes have the same atomic number but differ in the number of neutrons. The number of protons in an atom is called its atomic number. This number is very important because it is unique for atoms of a given element. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons, and every element has a different number of protons in its atoms.
