Answer:

(a) F = 320

(b) = F = -5.1625

Explanation:

The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:

F = 1.8C + 32

Solving (a): F = 2C

Substitute 2C for F in the above equation

F = 1.8C + 32

2C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

2C - 1.8C = 32

0.2C = 32

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5

C = 160

Recall that F = 2C

F = 2 * 160

F = 320

Solving (b): F = ¼C

Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula

F = 1.8C + 32

¼C = 1.8C + 32

Convert fraction to decimal

0.25C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

0.25C - 1.8C = 32

-1.55C = 32

Divide both sides by -1.55

C = 32/(-1.55)

C = -32/1.55

C = -20.65

Recall that: F = ¼C

F = -¼ * 20.65

F = -5.1625

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,
Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A

(b) Again the power is given by :

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

R is resistance of the dryer

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T

Hence, this is the required solution.

If the wavelength of a sound wave increases and the frequency of the sound wave does not change what happens to the speed of the
salantis [7]

If the wavelength of a sound wave increases and the frequency of the sound wave does not change, the speed of the wave will increase.

Ans: D

Explanation

The sound wave speed is given by E=fλ, where f indicates its frequency and λ indicates its wavelength.

From the equation, it is evident that the sound speed is proportional to both frequency and wavelength.

Here, as wavelength increases, wave speed increases provided there is no change in frequency.
