Answer:
a) 1450watts
b) 564watts
c) 1.11
Explanation:
Power consumed = IV
I is the current rating
V is the operating voltage
If a blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V and the current rating of the blow-dryer is 12 A, while that of the vacuum cleaner is 4.7 A then their individual power rating is calculated thus;
a) For blow-dryer
Operating voltage = 120V
Its current rating = 12A
Power consumed = IV
= 120×12
= 1440watts
b) For vacuum cleaner:
Operating voltage is the same as that of blow dryer = 120V
Its current rating = 4.7A
Power consumed = IV
= 120×4.7
= 564watts
c) Energy used = Power consumed × time taken
Energy used = Power × time
Energy used by blow dryer = 1440×20×60
= 1,728,000Joules
Energy used up by vacuum cleaner = 564×46×60
= 564×2760
= 1,556,640Joules
Ratio of the energy used by the blow-dryer in 20 minutes to the energy used by the vacuum cleaner in 46 minutes will be 1,728,000/1,556,640 = 1.11
Answer:
because they are the rocks that line the surface of our planet
Explanation:
We see sedimentary rocks more than other rock types because they are the rocks that line the surface of our planet.
Sedimentary rocks typically form the earth cover due to the way they are formed.
- These rocks are produced by the weathering, transportation and deposition of sediments within a basin.
- In this basin, the sediment is lithified and converted to sedimentary rocks.
- These processes are driven by the external heat engine
- Therefore, it is confined to the surface.
- Igneous and metamorphic rock's processes are confined to the subsurface.

Answer:
The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' is 240 N
Explanation:
The given parameters for the pole AB are;
The length of the pole, l = 10.0 m
The weight of the pole, W = 600 N ↓
The distance of the center of gravity of the pole from the side 'A' = 4.0 m
Let '
' represent the force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' and let a force applied in the upwards direction be positive
For equilibrium, the sum of moment about the point 'B' = 0, therefore, taking moment about 'B', we have
× 10.0 m - W × 4.0 m = 0
∴ × 10.0 m = W × 4.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m
× 10.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m
∴ = 600 N × 4.0 m/(10.0 m) = 240 N
The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A', = 240 N.
-- If acceleration and velocity are in the same direction,
then the object is speeding up.
-- If acceleration and velocity are in opposite directions,
then the object is slowing down.
-- If acceleration is perpendicular to velocity, then the object
is moving on a circular curve at constant speed.
