All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 270-W blender, and a 80-W lamp are plugged into the same outle

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Explanation:

given data

toaster = 1140-W

blender = 270-W

lamp = 80-W

voltage = 120 V

solution

we know that current is express as

current = power ÷ voltage ......................1

here voltage is same in all three device

current by toaster is

I = $\frac{1140}{120}$

I = 9.5 A

and

current by blender

I = $\frac{270}{120}$

I = 2.25 A

and

current by lamp is

I = $\frac{80}{120}$

I = 0.667 A

so here device in parallel so

total current is = 9.5 A + 2.25 A + 0.667 A

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Two kids are playing on a newly installed slide, which is 3 m long. John, whose mass is 30 kg, slides down into William (20 kg),

yuradex [85]

Answer:

$v=3.564\ m.s^{-1}$

$\Delta v =2.16\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of John, $m_J=30\ kg$

mass of William, $m_W=30\ kg$

length of slide, $l=3\ m$

(A)

height between John and William, $h=1.8\ m$

Using the equation of motion:

$v_J^2=u_J^2+2 (g.sin\theta).l$

where:

v_J = final velocity of John at the end of the slide

u_J = initial velocity of John at the top of the slide = 0

Now putting respective :

$v_J^2=0^2+2\times (9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3})\times 3$

$v_J=5.94\ m.s^{-1}$

Now using the law of conservation of momentum at the bottom of the slide:

Sum of initial momentum of kids before & after collision must be equal.

$m_J.v_J+m_w.v_w=(m_J+m_w).v$

where: v = velocity with which they move together after collision

$30\times 5.94+0=(30+20)v$

$v=3.564\ m.s^{-1}$ is the velocity with which they leave the slide.

(B)

frictional force due to mud, $f=105\ N$

Now we find the force along the slide due to the body weight:

$F=m_J.g.sin\theta$

$F=30\times 9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3}$

$F=176.4\ N$

Hence the net force along the slide:

$F_R=71.4\ N$

Now the acceleration of John:

$a_j=\frac{F_R}{m_J}$

$a_j=\frac{71.4}{30}$

$a_j=2.38\ m.s^{-2}$

Now the new velocity:

$v_J_n^2=u_J^2+2.(a_j).l$

$v_J_n^2=0^2+2\times 2.38\times 3$

$v_J_n=3.78\ m.s^{-1}$

Hence the new velocity is slower by

$\Delta v =(v_J-v_J_n)$

$\Delta v =5.94-3.78= 2.16\ m.s^{-1}$

"5 N, up" is an example of a ___. OA) force OB) mass OC) weight OD) magnitude

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

A) Force

Explanation:

It is an example of force since force is a vector quantity so it has magnitude and direction. In this case the magnitude is equal to 5 [N] and the direction is upward.

The weight can not be, as it always acts downward.

Mass is not a force, its unit is given usually in kilogram [kg]
