Answer:

1)  energy = 15.6 kWh,  2)    total_cost = $ 2.03

Explanation:

1) The energy dissipated is the product of the power and the time of use In a month it was used t = 6.5 h and the power of the toaster is

P = 2400 W = 2,400 kW

       energy = P  t

       energy = 2,400  6.5

        energy = 15.6  kWh

using rounding to a decimal

        energy = 15.6 kWh

2) The cost of energy is unit_cost = $ 0.13 / kWh

so the total cost

         total_cost = energy    unit_cost

         total_cost = 15.6   0.13

         total_cost = $ 2.028  

rounding to two decimal places

         total_cost = $ 2.03

Starting from zero, an electric current is established in a circuit made of a battery of emf E, a resistor of resistance R and a
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

time constant will decrease and steady state current will decrease on increasing the resistance

Explanation:

As we know that the EMF of cell is E which is used to connected across a resistor and an inductor.

So we will have

E - iR - L\frac{di}{dt} = 0

here we know that

i = \frac{E}{R}(1 - e^{-Rt/L})

now here we have

\tau = \frac{L}{R}

so if we increase the value of resistance of the wire then the time constant will decrease

and hence it will take less time to reach near the steady state value

also the steady state current will be smaller in that case

A softball is thrown from the origin of an x-y coordinate system with an initial speed of 18 m/s at an angle of 35∘ above the ho
podryga [215]
<span>What we need to first do is split the ball's velocity into vertical and horizontal components. To do that multiply by the sin or cos depending upon if you're looking for the horizontal or vertical component. If you're uncertain as to which is which, look at the angle in relationship to 45 degrees. If the angle is less than 45 degrees, the larger value will be the horizontal speed, if the angle is greater than 45 degrees, the larger value will be the vertical speed. So let's calculate the velocities sin(35)*18 m/s = 0.573576436 * 18 m/s = 10.32437585 m/s cos(35)*18 m/s = 0.819152044 * 18 m/s = 14.7447368 m/s Since our angle is less than 45 degrees, the higher velocity is our horizontal velocity which is 14.7447368 m/s. To get the x positions for each moment in time, simply multiply the time by the horizontal speed. So 0.50 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 7.372368399 m 1.00 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 14.7447368 m 1.50 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 22.1171052 m 2.00 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 29.48947359 m Rounding the results to 1 decimal place gives 0.50 s = 7.4 m 1.00 s = 14.7 m 1.50 s = 22.1 m 2.00 s = 29.5 m</span>
