Power rating = volts x amps

Power rating = 7.5 x 120 = 900 watts

Answer: 900 watts

mylen [45]

Answer: $3.7 \times 10^{-4} N$

Explanation:

The gravitational pull between two object is given by:

$F = G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

Where M and m are the masses of the object, r is the distance between the masses and G = 6.67× 10⁻¹¹ m³kg⁻¹ s⁻² is the gravitational constant.

We have to calculate the net force on Earth due to Venus, Jupiter and Saturn when they are in one line. It means when they are the closest distance.

$F_{net] = G\frac{M_eM_v}{r_v^2}+G\frac{M_eM_j}{r_j^2}+G\frac{M_eM_s}{r_s^2}$

Mass of Earth, Me = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

Mass of Venus, Mv = 0.815 Me

Mass of Jupiter, Mj = 318 Me

Mass of Saturn, Ms = 95.1 Me

closest distance between Earth and Venus, rv = 38 × 10⁶ km = 0.25 AU

closest distance between Jupiter and Earth, rj = 588 × 10⁶ km = 3.93 AU

closest distance between Earth and Saturn, rs = 1.2 × 10⁹ km = 8.0 AU

where 1 AU = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m

Inserting the values:

$F_{net} = G\frac{M_e\times 0.815 M_e}{(0.25AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 318 M_e}{(3.93AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 95.1 M_e}{(8.0AU)^2}\\ \Rightarrow F_{net} = \frac{(GM_e^2)}{(1AU)^2}(\frac{0.815}{0.25^2}+\frac{318}{3.93^2}+\frac{95.1}{8.0^2})=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11} \times (5.98\times 10^{24})^2}{(1.5\times 10^{11})^2}(35.1) = 3.7 \times 10^{-4} N$

Elements from opposite sides of the periodic table tend to form ________.

Ivenika [448]

Ionic compounds is your answer. What happens is one atom donates electron(s) to the other atom, making one positive and the other negative. The opposite atoms attract, forming an ionic bond.

Hope this helps! :)

An air compressor compresses 6 L of air at 120 kPa and 22°C to 1000 kPa and 400°C. Determine the flow work, in kJ/kg, required b

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg

Explanation:

The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .

The work flow can be determined using the equation:

M1h1 + W = Mh2

U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2

Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1

Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)

Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)

Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg

Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg
