Answer:

90 A

Explanation:

Applying,

P = VI.............. Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Supply voltage, I = current.

Make I the subject of the equation

I = P/V.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Assuming the Voltage of the main electric supply is 120 V

Given: P = 10.8 kW = 10800 W, V = 120 V (household voltage)

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 10800/120

I = 90 A

Some element can be either solid or liquid. At the melting point, the liquid has 8 × 10-22 J more enthalpy per atom than the sol
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

481.76 J/mol

133.33 K

Explanation:

N_A = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{23}

Change in enthalpy is given by

\Delta H=8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta H=481.76\ J/mol

Entropy is given by

\Delta S=6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta S=3.6132\ J/mol K

Latent heat of fusion is given by

L_f=\Delta H\\\Rightarrow L_f=481.76\ J/mol

The latent heat of fusion is 481.76 J/mol

Melting point is given by

T_m=\dfrac{L_f}{\Delta S}\\\Rightarrow T_m=\dfrac{8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}{6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\Rightarrow T_f=133.33\ K

Melting occurs at 133.33 K

What is the electric field at the position (x2,y2)=(−5.0cm , 0cm) in component form?
insens350 [35]

Complete Question: A +10 nC charge is located at the origin. What is the electric field at the position (x2,y2)= (-5.0cm, 0cm)? Write electric field vector in component form.

E2x, E2y=? N/C

Answer:

Ex = -3.6*10⁴ N/C   Ey=0

Explanation:

As the charge producing the field is positive, the direction of the field, which is the one that would take a positive test charge located in the point of interest, will be away from this point, pointing to the left.

If we choose the positive direction to be to the right, the electric field component along the x-axis will be negative.

The magnitude of the field can be obtained applying the electric field definition, and the Coulomb's Law to the charge in the origin, as follows:

E = k*q/r² = 9*10⁹N*m²/C²*10⁻⁸C/(0.05)² m² = 3.6*10⁴ N/C

As the electric field follows the same line as the electric force, it has only component on the x axis, so:

Ex = -3.6*10⁴ N/C  

Ey = 0

Which of the statements about the effect of solutes on solutions is true
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Solutes raise the boiling point of a solvent.

Explanation:

When the solutes is non volatile and dissolved in a solvent, it lowers the vapour pressure of the solvent hence elevating the boiling point of the solvent.
