Why does the chord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does

1 answer:

Answer:

The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.

A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 28.0 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 0.700 cm2 area is 55.

grandymaker [24]

Explanation:

It is known that wave intensity is the power to area ratio.

Mathematically, I = $\frac{P}{A}$

As it is given that power is 28.0 W and area is $7 \times 10^{-5} m^{2}$ .

Therefore, sound intensity will be calculated as follows.

I = $\frac{P}{A}$

= $\frac{28.0 W}{4 \times 3.14 \times 7 \times 10^{-5} m^{2}}$

= $0.318 \times 10^{5} W/m^{2}$

or, = $3.18 \times 10^{4} W/m^{2}$

Thus, we can conclude that sound intensity at the position of the microphone is $3.18 \times 10^{4} W/m^{2}$ .

A boy with a mouse is 80 kg stands on a scale in an ascending elevator with an acceleration of 3 m/s What is the resultant upwar

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of $3m/sec^2$

So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 $m/sec^2$ ( As the car elevator is moving ascending )

So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)

So $F=80\times 12.8=1024N$

So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N
