In the bedroom of your house you would like to run a 240 W toward, a 30 W alarm clock, a 720 W tanning bed, and four 60 W lights

. Assuming your house is wired for 120 Volts, how much current will be pulled by these electrical devices?

Answer: current = 10.25A

Explanation:

Toward = 240w

Alarm clock = 30w

Tanning bed = 720w

4 60 watts bulb = 60 * 4 = 240w

Total power = 240 + 30 + 720 + 240 = 1230w

Voltage = 120v

Recall that Power = current * voltage

1230 = current * 120

current = 1230/120 = 10.25A

Una furgoneta circula por una carretera a 55km/h. Diez km atrás , un coche circula en el mismo sentido a 85km/h ¿ En cuanto tiem
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

t = 0.33h = 1200s

x = 18.33 km

Explanation:

If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:

car 1:

x=x_o+v_1t    (1)

xo = 10 km

v1 = 55km/h

car 2:

x'=v_2t    (2)

v2 = 85km/h

For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:

x=x'\\\\x_o+v_1t=v_2t\\\\(v_2-v_1)t=x_o\\\\t=\frac{x_o}{v_2-v_1}

t=\frac{10km}{85km/h-55km/h}=0.33h*\frac{3600s}{1h}=1200s

The position in which both cars coincides is:

x=(55km/h)(0.33h)=18.33km

BRAINLIEST WELL BE AWARDED.<br>what is an alloy?​
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Alloy, metallic substance composed of two or more elements, as either a compound or a solution. The components of alloys are ordinarily themselves metals, though carbon, a nonmetal, is an essential constituent of steel.

Explanation:

Alloys are usually produced by melting the mixture of ingredients. The value of alloys was discovered in very ancient times; brass (copper and zinc) and bronze (copper and tin) were especially important. Today, the most important are the alloy steels, broadly defined as steels containing significant amounts of elements other than iron and carbon. The principal alloying elements for steel are chromium, nickel, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, tungsten, vanadium, and boron have a wide range of special properties, such as hardness, toughness, corrosion resistance, magnetizability, and ductility. Nonferrous alloys, mainly copper–nickel, bronze, and aluminum alloys, are much used in coinage. The distinction between an alloying metal and an impurity is sometimes subtle; in aluminum, for example, silicon may be considered an impurity or a valuable component, depending on the application, because silicon adds strength though it reduces corrosion resistance.

Based upon the information you have learned throughout this module on blood spatter analysis, do you feel that analyzing blood s
kompoz [17]

Answer:

I do not think that it is the most reliable way to gain information since it is very hard to do and can be easily messed up. No, I don't think you can charge someone on only evidence from blood spatter, but if there was additional evidence I think that this would definitely help with the case but not on its own, since it doesn’t give you physical evidence about the suspect.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Mars is about one-third the acceleration due to gravity on Earth’s surface.
aksik [14]

Answer:

one-third of its weight on Earth's surface

Explanation:

Weight of an object is = W = m*g

Gravity on Earth = g₁ = 9.8 m/s

Gravity on Mars = g₂ = \frac{1}{3} g₁

Weight of probe on earth = w₁ = m * g₁

Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₂ -------- ( 1 )

As g₂ = g₁/3 --------- ( 2 )

Put equation (2) in equation (1)

so

Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₁ /3

Weight of probe on Mars = \frac{1}{3}  m * g₁ = \frac{1}{3} w₁

⇒Weight of probe on Mars =\frac{1}{3} Weight of probe on earth
