Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Power = 1.200 kW,         Time = 15 minutes = \frac{15min}{60 min/hr} = 0.25 hour

     Energy = ?

Thus, calculate the energy by using the formula as follows.

               Power = \frac{Energy}{Time}

               Energy = Power × Time

                            = 1.200 kW × 0.25 hr

                            = 0.300 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 0.300 kWh energy is used in drying your hair.

A bungee jumper has a mass of 60kg and uses a 25m long bungee cord (unstretched length) with an elastic coefficient of 800N/m. a
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

a ) 2.68 m / s

b )  1.47 m

Explanation:

The jumper will go down with acceleration as long as net force on it becomes zero . Net force of (mg - kx ) will act on it  where kx is the restoring force acting in upward direction.

At the time of equilibrium

mg - kx = 0

x = mg / k

= (60 x 9.8 ) / 800

= 0.735 m

At this moment , let its velocity be equal to V

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy of jumper + elastic energy of cord = loss of potential energy of the jumper

1/2 m V² + 1/2 k x² = mg x

.5 x 60 x V² + .5 x 800 x .735 x .735 = 60 x 9.8 x .735

30 V² + 216.09 = 432.18

V = 2.68 m / s

b ) At lowest point , kinetic energy is zero and loss of potential energy will be equal to stored elastic energy.

1/2 k x² = mgx

x = 2 m g / k

= (2 x 60 x 9.8) / 800

= 1.47 m

A uniform electric field of magnitude 110 kV/m is directed upward in a region of space. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1.7×10^5 ms-1

Explanation:

From

qE= qvB

q= charge on the electron

E = electric field

v= velocity

B= magnetic field

E= vB

v= E/B= 110×10^3/0.6

v= 1.7×10^5 ms-1

How do the Sun, Earth, and Moon systems interact
Nataly [62]

The sun is the mother star of the solar system, which only emits light to half of the planet, while the other part is always dark.

The sun emits light towards the earth, which dominates all life on earth. The movements of the Moon around the Earth and of the Earth around the Sun are complex. Movements of rotation around their own axes are superimposed on movements of orbital translation. The Earth and the Moon rotate around their own axes: This is rotation.
