From the word compound, the compound machine is already a combination of two or more types of simple machine. Thus, the answer is letter C. Because of its complexity, it is able to perform several other functions than a simple one.
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:
C
Explanation:
A theory can be changed when new evidence is found. A law doesn't change because it is universally a fact. It doesn't need new evidence to support it.
P₄ + 3O₂ ⟶ 2P₂O₃
Explanation:
A balanced equation is any equation that complies with the law of conservation of matter and mass.
The law of conservation of matter states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but simply rearranges. ".
This suggests that the total number of atoms on both reactant and product sides must be the same in a balanced chemical equation. Also, the same atoms are found on both sides of a chemical equation with no additional or external species.
Now let us check if the equation is conserved:
P₄ + 3O₂ ⟶ 2P₂O₃
Atoms reactant product
P 4 4
O 6 6
We see that we have equal number of atoms on both sides. The equation is balanced.
