Answer:
The power is 
Explanation:
In order to obtain the power it consumes we need to first obtain the resistance of the hair dryer at 120 V

Now the power supplied in Europe at their voltage of 230V would be

Looking the power obtain we see that it is higher than 1530 W so this would cause the dryer to smoke.
Answer:
Detailed solution is given and calculations are done
Answer:
(a) Yes
(b) 102.8 ft
Explanation:
(a)First let convert mile per hour to feet per second
30 mph = 30 * 5280 / 3600 = 44 ft/s
The time it takes for this driver to decelerate comfortably to 0 speed is
t = v / a = 44 / 10 = 4.4 (s)
given that it also takes 1.5 seconds for the driver reaction, the total time she would need is 5.9 seconds. Therefore, if the yellow light was on for 4 seconds, that's not enough time and the dilemma zone would exist.
(b) At this rate the distance covered by the driver is


Since the intersection is only 60 feet wide, the dilemma zone must be
162.8 - 60 = 102.8 ft
Answer:
Explanation:
A smaller clearance volume means a higher compression. A higher compression means better thermal efficiency. However a compression ratio too high might be troublesome, as it can cause accidental ignition of the fuel-air mix. This is the reason why Otto cycle engines have lower compressions that Diesel engines. In a Diesel engine the mix ignites by compression instead of a spark.
