A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to $P=VI$

So $400=110\times I$

$I=3.636A$

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be $n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125$

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4

How are the energy conversions of machines similar to the energy conversions in your body

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:

-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles

- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.

- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.

Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.

Assuming typical speeds of 8.5 km/s and 5.5 km/s for P and S waves, respectively, how far away did the earthquake occur if a par

taurus [48]

Answer:

The earthquake occurred at a distance of 1122 km

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the P wave, v₁ = 8.5 km/s

speed of the S wave, v₂ = 5.5 km/s

The distance traveled by both waves is the same and it is given as;

Δx = v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

let the time taken by the wave with greater speed = t₁

then, the time taken by the wave with smaller speed, t₂ = t₁ + 1.2 min, since it is slower.

v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

v₁t₁ = v₂(t₁ + 1.2 min)

v₁t₁ = v₂(t₁ + 72 s)

v₁t₁ = v₂t₁ + 72v₂

v₁t₁ - v₂t₁ = 72v₂

t₁(v₁ - v₂) = 72v₂

$t_1 = \frac{72v_2}{v_1-v_2}\\\\t_1 = \frac{72*5.5}{8.5-5.5}\\\\t_1 = 132 \ s$

The distance traveled is given by;

Δx = v₁t₁

Δx = (8.5)(132)

Δx = 1122 km

Therefore, the earthquake occurred at a distance of 1122 km
