Answer:

Resistance, R = 60 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

For the first heater;

Voltage, V = 120 V

Resistance, R = 15 Ohms

For the second heater;

Voltage, V = 240 V

To find the resistance in the second heater;

First of all, we would determine the power rating of the heaters using the formula below;

Power = voltage²/resistance

Power = 120²/15

Power = 14400/15

Power = 960 Watts

Next, we find the resistance in the second heater;

Power = V²/R

960 = 240²/R

Cross-multiplying, we have;

960R = 57600

R = 57600/960

R = 60 Ohms

23. Why would an astronomical unit not be<br> used to measure distances on Earth?
Rashid [163]
One Astronomical Unit is the distance between the Earth and the Sun, this acts as a sort of a cosmic metre stick. Astronomers don't and cannot measure distances. Distances are merely inferred from what actually has been measured, such as an angle, a relative luminosity, a time period

A Pitot-static probe is used to measure the speed of an aircraft flying at 3000 m. If the differential pressure reading is 3300
adell [148]

Answer:

   v = 306.76 Km/h

Explanation:

given,

height of the aircraft = 3000 m

differential pressure reading = 3300 N/m²

density of air = 0.909 Kg/m³

speed of aircraft = ?

Assuming the air flowing above air craft is in-compressible, irrotational and steady so, we can use Bernoulli's equation to solve the problem.

using Bernoulli's equation

          \dfrac{v^2}{2} = \dfrac{\Delta P}{\rho}

where ρ is the density of the air at 3000 m

          v= \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times \Delta P}{\rho}}

          v= \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times 3300}{0.909}}

          v = \sqrt{7260.726}

                 v = 85.21 m/s

          v= 85.21 \times \dfrac{3600}{1000}

                 v = 306.76 Km/h

A block, whose mass is 0.500 kg, is attached to a spring with a force constant of 126 N/m. The block rests upon a frictionless,
erastova [34]

Answer:

(a) F = 15.12 N

(b) a = 30.24 m/s²

(c) To Left

Explanation:

(a)

The magnitude of the spring force is given by Hooke's Law as follows:

F = kx

where,

F = Spring Force = ?

k = Spring Constant = 126 N/m

x = Displacement = A = 0.12 m

Therefore,

F = (126 N/m)(0.12 m)

<u>F = 15.12 N</u>

(b)

The magnitude of acceleration can be found by comparing the spring force with the unbalanced force formula of Newton's Second Law:

F = ma

where,

F = Spring Force = 15.12 N

m = mass of block = 0.5 kg

a = magnitude of acceleration = ?

15.12 N = 0.5 kg (a)

a = 15.12 N/0.5 kg

<u>a = 30.24 m/s²</u>

<u></u>

(c)

Since, the acceleration is always directed towards mean (equilibrium) position in periodic motion. Therefore, the direction of the acceleration at the time of release will be <u>to left.</u>
