In doing a load of clothes, a clothes drier uses 18 A of current at 240 V for 59 min. A personal computer, in contrast, uses 3.0

A of current at 120 V. With the energy used by the clothes drier, how long (in hours) could you use this computer to "surf" the Internet?

Answer:

11.76 hours or 11 hours 45 minutes

Explanation:

Given

Current\ for\ drier = I_d = 18A\\Voltage\ for\ drier=V_d=240V\\Time\ for\ drier=t_d=59\ min

We have to convert minutes into hours

So,

t=\frac{59}{60} = 0.98\ hours

Current\ for\ Computer=I_c=3.0A\\Voltage\ for\ computer=V_c=120V

As we are given that we have to find the time the computer will sustain using the same energy as the drier. So,

I_d*V_d*t_d=I_c*V_c*t_c\\18*240*0.98=3*120*t_c\\t_c*360=4233.6\\t_c=\frac{4233.6}{360}\\ t_c=11.76\ hours

<u>Converting into minutes will give us: 11 hours 45 minutes </u>

Therefore, with the same energy used by the drier, the computer can be used 11.76 hours to surf the internet ..

In which case will the linear search return the lowest value faster than the<br> binary search?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

A linear search is one that scans every record/file until it discovers the value being searched for.

Binary search, on the other hand, is also known as <em>Logarithmic search</em>. It is used to locate the position of a value inside an array that has already been sorted.  

The linear search will return the lowest value faster than the binary search when small arrays are involved.

This will only be feasible when the array is sorted prior.

Cheers!
