Specific heat. The definition of specific heat is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1K or 1°C.
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
a) We know that;
v = λf
Where;
λ = wavelength of the wave
f = frequency of the wave
v = velocity of the wave
So;
T = 2 * 2.10 s = 4.2 s
Hence f = 1/4.2 s
f = 0.24 Hz
The wavelength = 6.5 m
Hence;
v = 6.5 m * 0.24 Hz
v = 1.56 m/s
b)The amplitude of the wave is;
A = 0.600 m/2 = 0.300 m
c) Since the wave speed does not depend on the amplitude of the wave then the answer in (a) above remains the same
Where d = 0.30 m
A = 0.30 m/2 = 0.15 m
Answer:
6.5 m/s
Explanation:
We are given that
Distance, s=100 m
Initial speed, u=1.4 m/s
Acceleration, 
We have to find the final velocity at the end of the 100.0 m.
We know that
Using the formula
Hence, her final velocity at the end of the 100.0 m=6.5 m/s
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
