The power consumed by the electric clothes dryer may be calculated by the following equation,

    P = I x V

where P is the power, I is the current in amperes, and V is the voltage in volts. Substituting the known values from the given above,

  P = (15 A)(240 V)
  P = 3600 watts

Therefore, the power consumed by the electric clothes dryer is equal to 3600 watts.

What effect does the time taken to lift the mass have on power output?
sineoko [7]
The longer the time taken, the lower the power output.

This is since power is calculated through

Energy transferred / time

Increasing the denominator will lead to a lower value overall

The result of a wave generator traveling faster than the speed of a wave is:
Vesnalui [34]
The result of a wave generator traveling faster than the speed of a wave is called as a boom. If the wave is a sound wave, it is called a sonic boom. However, if the wave is light, it is called as a luminal boom.  Luminal bloom happens in some industries and is commonly called as the Cherenkov radiation.

to measure the static friction coefficient between a block and a vertical wall, a spring is attached to the block, is pushed on
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

μ = mg/kx

Explanation:

Since the bock does not slip, the frictional force equals the weight of the block. So, F = mg. Now, the frictional force, F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = Normal force.

Now, the normal force equals the spring force F' = kx where k = spring constant and x = compression of spring.

N = F' = kx

So, F = μN = μkx

μkx = mg

So, μ = mg/kx

Help yet again :) A hockey player is skating on the ice at 15km/h. He shoots the puck at 138 km/h according to a radar gun on th
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

speed of puck acc. to the radar gun = 138 km/h

speed of player = 15 km/h

since the player is in motion when he shoots, the speed of the puck will be the sum of the speed of the player and the speed at which he shot. so,

speed of puck = speed of player + speed of puck acc. to player

138 = 15 + speed of puck acc. to player

speed of puck acc. to player = 138 -15

speed of puck acc. to player = 123 km/h
