We are given an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 5.09 x 10^14 Hz and travelling through a transparent medium. If the medium was vacuum, the speed of the wave would be equal to the speed of light. Otherwise, the main factor that would determine the speed of the wave is its wavelength.

One thousand grams of seawater would consist of how many grams of dissolved substances? 65 635 35 965
Naya [18.7K]
<span>One thousand grams of seawater has 35 grams of dissolved substances ... on the average. While the salinity of the Earth's oceans and seas varies, the average salinity of seawater rests at 3.5%. Consider one liter or sea or ocean water. One liter has 1,000 milliliters (mL) in it. To find 3.5% of 1,000, we would multiply with the decimal place adjusted for percentages: 1000 x .035 = 35. Therefore, for every 1,000 mL of seawater, we will find 35 grams of (mostly) sodium chloride, otherwise known as salt.</span>

How many kWh of energy does a 550-W toaster use in the morning if it is in operation for a total of 5.0 min? At a cost of 9.0 ce
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.0458 kWh

6.5736 cents

Explanation:

The formula for electric energy is given as

E = Pt................. Equation 1

Where E = Electric energy, P = Electric power, t = time.

Given; P = 550 W, t = 5 min = (5/60) h = 0.083 h.

Substituting into equation 1

E = 550(0.083)

E = 45.83 Wh

E = (45.83/1000) kWh

E = 0.0458 kWh.

Hence the kWh = 0.0458 kWh.

If the makes a toast four morning per week, and the are Four weeks in a month.

Total number days he makes toast in a month = 4×4 = 16 days.

t = 16×0.083 h = 1.328 h.

Total energy used in a month = 550(1.328)

E = 730.4 Wh

E = 0.7304 kWh.

If the cost of energy is 9.0 cents per kWh,

Then for 0.7304 kWh  the cost will be 9.0(0.7304) = 6.5736 cents.

Hence this would add 6.5736 cents to his monthly electric bill

A 350-km-long high-voltage transmission line 2.00 cm in diameter carries a steady current of 1,010 A. If the conductor is copper
Masja [62]

Answer:

t = 47 years

Explanation:

To find the number of years in which the electrons cross the complete transmission, you first calculate the drift velocity of the electrons in the transmission line, by using the following formula:

v_d=\frac{I}{nAq}         (1)

I: current = 1,010A

A: cross sectional area of the transmission line = π(d/2)^2

d: diameter of the transmission line = 2.00cm = 0.02 m

n: free charge density = 8.50*10^28 electrons/m^3

q: electron's charge = 1.6*10^-19 C

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

v_d=\frac{1010A}{(8.50*10^{28}m^{-3})(\pi(0.02m/2)^2)(1.6*10^{-19}C)}\\\\v_d=2.36*10^{-4}\frac{m}{s}

with this value of the drift velocity you can calculate the time that electrons take in crossing the complete transmission line:

t=\frac{d}{v_d}=\frac{350km}{2.36*10^{-4}m/s}=\frac{350000m}{2.36*10^{-4}m/s}\\\\t=1,483,050,847\ s

Finally, you convert this value of the time to years:

t=1,483,050,847s*\frac{1\ year}{3.154*10^7s}=47\ years

hence, the electrons take around 47 years to cross the complete transmission line.
