The resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.
<h3>What is resistance?</h3>
Resistance can be defined as the opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit. The S.I unit of resistance is Ohms (Ω).
To calculate the resistance of the heater, we use the formula below.
<h3>Formula:</h3>
- R = V²/P............. Equation 1
Where:
- R = Resistance of the heater
- P = Power of the heater
- V = Voltage supplied to the heater
From the question,
Given:
- V = 480 V
- P = 4.6 kW = 4600 W
Substitute these values into equation 1
- R = (480²)/4600
- R = 50.1 ohms.
Hence, the resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.

Explanation:
speed of an object is the magnitude of the rate of change of its position with time or the magnitude of the change of its position per unit of time; it is thus a scalar quantity.
Answer:
Part a: When the road is level, the minimum stopping sight distance is 563.36 ft.
Part b: When the road has a maximum grade of 4%, the minimum stopping sight distance is 528.19 ft.
Explanation:
Part a
When Road is Level
The stopping sight distance is given as

Here
- SSD is the stopping sight distance which is to be calculated.
- u is the speed which is given as 60 mi/hr
- t is the perception-reaction time given as 2.5 sec.
- a/g is the ratio of deceleration of the body w.r.t gravitational acceleration, it is estimated as 0.35.
- G is the grade of the road, which is this case is 0 as the road is level
Substituting values

So the minimum stopping sight distance is 563.36 ft.
Part b
When Road has a maximum grade of 4%
The stopping sight distance is given as

Here
- SSD is the stopping sight distance which is to be calculated.
- u is the speed which is given as 60 mi/hr
- t is the perception-reaction time given as 2.5 sec.
- a/g is the ratio of deceleration of the body w.r.t gravitational acceleration, it is estimated as 0.35.
- G is the grade of the road, which is given as 4% now this can be either downgrade or upgrade
For upgrade of 4%, Substituting values

<em>So the minimum stopping sight distance for a road with 4% upgrade is 528.19 ft.</em>
For downgrade of 4%, Substituting values

<em>So the minimum stopping sight distance for a road with 4% downgrade is 607.59 ft.</em>
As the minimum distance is required for the 4% grade road, so the solution is 528.19 ft.
T=s/v=>t=1500/1,5=1000s
