A 2400W electric toaster is connected to a standard 120 V wall outlet. A family
measured their monthly toaster usage to be 6.5 hrs.
6
1) How much electrical energy (in kilowatt hours - kWh) did the toaster dissipate
during the measured month? (round to 1 decimal place & do not include units)
2) If the local power company charges $0.13/kWh, then calculate (in $) the monthly
total cost of this toaster. (round to 2 decimals & do not include units)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 15.6

2) 2.03

Explanation:

The power output of the electric toaster, P = 2,400 W

The voltage rating of the power outlet, V = 120 V

The number of hours the toaster is used during a month = 6.5 hours

1) Electrical energy, E = Electrical power, P × Time, t

The electrical energy dissipated by the toaster, 'E', is given as follows;

E = 2,400 W × 6.5 hrs = 15,600 Wh = 15.6 kWh

The electrical energy dissipated by the toaster, during the measured month in kWh, E = 15.6

2) Let 'C' represent the monthly cost of toaster and let 'B' represent the amount charged by the local power company, we have;

The charges for (electrical) power by the local power company, B = $0.13/kWh

The monthly cost of the toaster, C = E × B

∴ C = 15.6 kWh × $0.13/kWh = $2.028

By rounding off to 2 decimals, the monthly cost of the toaster (in $), C ≈ 2.03.

According to Hooke's law, the force exerted by a compressed or stretched spring is proportional to...

Answers

Answer:

Hooke's law can be written as:

F = -k*Δx

Where k is a constant that depends on the spring, called the spring constant.

And Δx = (x - x₀) is the displacement of the spring with respect to the rest position x₀

And a proportional equation is something like:

y = c*x

Where c is a constant of proportionality.

In the case of Hooke's law, the constant is K, then the force is proportional to the displacement of the spring with respect to the rest position Δx.

any tips for an ollie ?

Answers

Answer:

skateboard mid-ollie is being actively steered. This is exactly what makes doing an ollie so hard. It's not enough to get the skateboard up into the air - you also have to steer it while it's in the air. You should keep your hands up in the hair a bit to help with balance, scrunch your legs a bit down to have a proper and effective jump. wear nee pads incase you dont fix the landing. Practice jumping on ur skate board tho, if u jump at it without knowing much youll just get hurt.

Explanation:

A turtle swimming in a straight line toward shore has a speed of 0.50 m/sec. After 4.0 seconds, its speed is at 0.90 m/sec. What is the turtle's acceleration?​

Answers

Answer:

0.1m/s²

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

V = u+at

V is the final speed = 0.9m/s

Initial speed u = 0.5m/s

Time = 4secs

Get the acceleration

0.9 = 0 5+4a

0.9-0.5 = 4a

0.4 = 4a

a = 0.4/4

a = 0.1m/s²

Hence the acceleration is 0.1m/s²

The heat current across a certain cinductive material is H. If the cross-sectional area of the material is tripled and everything else remains the same, how is the heat current affected?

Answers

Answer:

Resistance is inversely proportional to the cross section area of the material, hence when cross sectional area is tripled, also resistance triples.

Since heat is caused due to resistance, also heat current triples.

Do planets revolve slower or faster the closer they are from the sun?

Answers

Answer:

The speed at which a planet orbits the Sun changes depending upon how far it is from the Sun. When a planet is closer to the Sun the Sun’s gravitational pull is stronger, so the planet moves faster. When a planet is further away from the sun the Sun’s gravitational pull is weaker, so the planet moves slower in its orbit.

Consider 2 steel rods, A and B, B has three times the area and twice the length of A, so young modulus of B will be what factor times young modulus of A?

Answers

Answer:

  [tex]\frac{Y}{Y_o}[/tex] = 2/3

Explanation:

The yuong modulus of a rod is defined as the relationship between the tensile strength and the strain

         Y =  [tex]\frac{ \frac{F}{A} }{\frac{\Delta L}{L_o} }[/tex]

let's use the subscript "o" for rod A

         I = [tex]\frac{ \frac{F}{A_o} }{ \frac{\Delta L}{L_o} }[/tex]

tells us that rod B has

         A = 3 A₀

         L = 2 L₀

we substitute

         Y = [tex]\frac{ \frac{F}{A} }{ \frac{\Delta L}{L} }[/tex]

          Y = [tex]\frac{ \frac{F}{3A_o} }{ \frac{\Delta L}{ 2L_o} }[/tex]

         y = ⅔  [tex]\frac{ \frac{F}{A_o}}{ \frac{\Delta }{L_o} }[/tex]

substituting the value of Y₀

          Y = ⅔  Y₀

           [tex]\frac{Y}{Y_o}[/tex] = 2/3

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the speed of the waves in cm/s?

Answers

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Using a horizontal force of 60 N, a wagon is pushed horizontally across the floor a distance of 12 meters at a constant speed of 2.3 m/s
a) What is the work done by the force?
b) What is the power supplied by the force?

Answers

Answer:

a) The work done by the force is 720 joules, b) The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.

Explanation:

a) Since force is uniform and parallel to the direction of motion, the work ([tex]W[/tex]), in joules, done by the force ([tex]F[/tex]), in newtons, is defined by this formula:

[tex]W = F\cdot s[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]s[/tex] is the travelled distance, in meters.

If we know that [tex]F = 60\,N[/tex] and [tex]s = 12\,m[/tex], then the work done by the force is:

[tex]W = F\cdot s[/tex]

[tex]W = (60\,N)\cdot (12\,m)[/tex]

[tex]W = 720\,J[/tex]

The work done by the force is 720 joules.

b) And an expression for the power supplied by the force ([tex]\dot W[/tex]), in watts, is concieved by differentiating (1) in time:

[tex]\dot W = F\cdot \dot s[/tex]

Where [tex]\dot s[/tex] is the speed of the wagon, in meters per second.

If we know that [tex]F = 60\,N[/tex] and [tex]\dot s = 2.3\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the power supplied by the force is:

[tex]\dot W = F\cdot \dot s[/tex]

[tex]\dot W = (60\,N)\cdot \left(2.3\,\frac{m}{s} \right)[/tex]

[tex]\dot W = 138\,W[/tex]

The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.

Answers

Answer:

the impulse experienced by this object is 4 Ns

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 3 kg

velocity of the object, v = 4 m/s

resistive force, F = 20 N

duration of impact, t = 0.2 s

The impulse experienced by this object is calculated as follows;

J = F x t

J = 20 x 0.2

J = 4 Ns

Therefore, the impulse experienced by this object is 4 Ns
