Answer:

The electrical energy consumed in boiling the water is 0.0788 kWh

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the water, m = 600 g = 0.6 kg

power rating of the kettle, P = 1500 W = 1.5 kW

specific heat capacity of water, c = 4,200 J/kg⁰C

density of water, = 1000 kg/m³

time taken to boil the water, t = 3 mins + 9 s = (3 x 60s) + 9 s = 180 s + 9 s = 189 s = 189 \ s \times \frac{1 hr}{3.600 \ s} = 0.0525 \ hr

The electrical energy consumed in boiling the water is calculated as;

E = P x t

E = 1.5 kW  x 0.0525 hr

E = 0.0788 kWh

Therefore, the electrical energy consumed in boiling the water is 0.0788 kWh

A ball is dropped from 8.5 meters above the ground. If it begins at rest, how long does it take to hit the ground?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

d = 8.5 meters

vi = 0

a = 9.81

t = ?

Formula

d = vi * t + 1/2 a t^2

Solution

8.5 = 0 + 1/2 9.81 * t^2       multiply both sides by 2

8.5 = 4.095 t^2                  Divide both sides by 4.095

8.5/4.095 = t^2

1.7329 = t^2                       Take the square root of both sides

t = 1.316

It takes 1.316 seconds to hit the ground.

If the mass of the block is too large and the block is too close to the left end of the bar (near string B) then the horizontal
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

xcritical = d− m1 /m2 ( L /2−d)

Explanation: the precursor to this question will had been this

the precursor to the question can be found online.

ff the mass of the block is too large and the block is too close to the left end of the bar (near string B) then the horizontal bar may become unstable (i.e., the bar may no longer remain horizontal). What is the smallest possible value of x such that the bar remains stable (call it xcritical)

. from the principle of moments which states that sum of clockwise moments must be equal to the sum of anticlockwise moments. aslo sum of upward forces is equal to sum of downward forces

smallest possible value of x such that the bar remains stable (call it xcritical)

∑τA = 0 = m2g(d− xcritical)− m1g( −d)

xcritical = d− m1 /m2 ( L /2−d)

The rigid link is supported by a pin at A and two A-36 steel wires, each having an unstretched length of 12 in. and cross-sectio
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Extension of the wire is not indicated

Explanation:

Young modulus (YM)= (stress/Strain); Tensile Stress/tensile Strain

=> YM *Strain =Stress=F/A; A is cross sectional area and F is the force

(YM * Strain * A)/36 =F (Force developed in each wire)

F = (350 *e*0.0125)/12
