A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai
Korolek [52]

Answer:

b) 900 W

Explanation:

The breaker trips when the current is equal to 20 A. The power (P) is the ddp (V) multiplied by the current. So, for the electric heater, the current is:

P = V*i

1500 = 120*i

i = 12.5 A

So, to become in 20 A, it's needed 7.5 A, which must come from the hairdryer. Its power must be:

P = 120*7.5

P = 900 W

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

 "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

Explanation:

If he writes down "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

That means he is describing the wavelength of a wave and not longitudinal wave. He ought to write something about " direction "

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or parallel to, the direction of propagation of the wave. While

Wavelength is the distance between the two successfully Crest or trough
