Answer: electric space heater

Explanation: The consumption of electrical energy per unit hour  is given by the power rating on the electrical appliance. The power rating depends on the electric current it withdraws to operate and the resistance of the appliance.

Portable tape recorder, a desk lamp and an electric can opener are small devices as compared to an electric space heater and with draw less current. thus, the power rating of the space heater is higher than other given appliances and it consumes more energy per hour.

You are correct, the answer is an electric space heater.
The reason for this is because the heating element generates heat by resisting the flow of current. For this reason, other similar devices such as irons take up a large amount of energy as well.

Suppose an electrical wire is replaced with one having every linear dimension doubled (i.e., the length and radius have twice th
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The new resistance becomes half of the initial resistance.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by :

R=\dfrac{\rho L}{A}

\rho = resistivity of material

L and A are linear dimension

If the electrical wire is replaced with one having every linear dimension doubled i.e. l' = 2l and r' = 2r

New resistance of wire is given by :

R'=\dfrac{\rho L'}{A'}

R'=\dfrac{\rho (2L)}{\pi (2r)^2}

R'=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\rho L}{A}

R'=\dfrac{1}{2}R

The new resistance becomes half of the initial resistance. Hence, this is the required solution.

In an experiment, students release a block from rest at the top of an inclined plane. The block slides down the plane through a
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

The main source of error is the omission of the effect from friction between block and incline, which is directly proportional to the mass of the block. The force of gravity is constant. The friction force dissipates part of the gravitational potential energy, generating a final speed less than calculated under the consideration of a conservative system. Air resistance is neglected at low speeds like this case.
