Answer:
(a) 1560 W
(b) 576 W
(c) 1.01
Explanation:
Voltage, V = 120 V
Current in dryer, I = 13 A
current in vacuum cleaner, i' = 4.8 A
(a) Power consumed by dryer,
P = V I = 120 x 13 = 1560 W
(b) Power consumed by vacuum cleaner
P' = V I' = 120 x 4.8 = 576 W
(c) Energy consumed by dryer
E = P x t = 1560 x 15 x 60 = 1404000 J
Energy consumed by the vacuum cleaner
E' = P' x t' = 576 x 40 x 60 = 1382400 J
the ratio of energies is
E : E' = 1404000 : 1382400 = 1.01
Answer: 5.31 meters
Explanation: Use conservation of energy. Initial energy equals final energy. Initially, there is only kinetic energy (because height = 0 initially). At the end, kinetic energy equals 0 because at max height, there is max potential energy and the ball stops moving for a split second.
mgh = .5mv^2
Masses cancel out
gh = .5v^2
(9.8)(h) = .5(10.2^2)
Solve for h. h = 5.31 meters
Can you give us the options…?
