We can solve for the power dissipated by the oven on the given values of voltage which is 120 volts and current which is equal to 12.5 amperes.
The formula for Power dissipated is P=V*I where "v" for the voltage and "i" for the current.
P=120*12.5
P=1500 watts
The answer is 1500 watts.

Assume that segment r exerts a force of magnitude t on segment l. what is the magnitude flr of the force exerted on segment r by

mrs_skeptik [129]

If we are talking on the force being exerted by a segment of a rope of lenght R on the right on a point M which is being also pulled from the Left by a segment of rope R as shown in the figure attached. Then we invoke Newton's Third Law:
"Any force exerted by an object (in this case a segment of the rope) also suffers a equal and opposite force".
If we pick $T_R=T$ whis is the tension exerted by the right segment then the left segment will also exert an equal and opposite force so we have that $T_L=-T$

A DJ starts up her phonograph player. The turntable accelerates uniformly from rest, and takes t1 = 11.9 seconds to get up to it

Degger [83]

Answer:

a) $\omega_1=8.168\,rad.s^{-1}$

b) $n_1=7.735 \,rev$

c) $\alpha_1 =0.6864\,rad.s^{-2}$

d) $\alpha_2=4.1454\,rad.s^{-2}$

e) $t_2=1.061\,s$

Explanation:

Given that:

initial speed of turntable, $N_0=0\,rpm\Rightarrow \omega_0=0\,rad.s^{-1}$

full speed of rotation, $N_1=78 \,rpm\Rightarrow \omega_1=\frac{78\times 2\pi}{60}=8.168\,rad.s^{-1}$

time taken to reach full speed from rest, $t_1=11.9\,s$

final speed after the change, $N_2=120\,rpm\Rightarrow \omega_2=\frac{120\times 2\pi}{60}=12.5664\,rad.s^{-1}$

no. of revolutions made to reach the new final speed, $n_2=11\,rev$

(a)

∵ 1 rev = 2π radians

∴ angular speed ω:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi.N}{60}\, rad.s^{-1}$

where N = angular speed in rpm.

putting the respective values from case 1 we've

$\omega_1=\frac{2\pi\times 78}{60}\, rad.s^{-1}$

$\omega_1=8.168\,rad.s^{-1}$

(c)

using the equation of motion:

$\omega_1=\omega_0+\alpha . t_1$

here α is the angular acceleration

$78=0+\alpha_1\times 11.9$

$\alpha_1 = \frac{8.168 }{11.9}$

$\alpha_1 =0.6864\,rad.s^{-2}$

(b)

using the equation of motion:

$\omega_1\,^2=\omega_0\,^2+2.\alpha_1 .n_1$

$8.168^2=0^2+2\times 0.6864\times n_1$

$n_1=48.6003\,rad$

$n_1=\frac{48.6003}{2\pi}$

$n_1=7.735\, rev$

(d)

using equation of motion:

$\omega_2\,^2=\omega_1\,^2+2.\alpha_2 .n_2$

$12.5664^2=8.168^2+2\alpha_2\times 11$

$\alpha_2=4.1454\,rad.s^{-2}$

(e)

using the equation of motion:

$\omega_2=\omega_1+\alpha_2 . t_2$

$12.5664=8.168+4.1454\times t_2$

$t_2=1.061\,s$

2.0 kg of solid gold (Au) at an initial temperature of 1000K is allowed to exchange heat with 1.5 kg of liquid gold at an initia

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

The specific heat of gold is 129 J/kgC

It's melting point is 1336 K

It's Heat of fusion is 63000 J/kg

Assuming that the mixture will be solid, the thermal energy to solidify the gold has to be less than that needed to raise the solid gold to the melting point. So,

The first is E1 = 63000 J/kg x 1.5 = 94500 J

the second is E2 = 129 J/kgC x 2 kg x (1336–1000)K = 86688 J

Therefore, all solid is not correct. You will have a mixture of solid and liquid.

For more detail, the difference between E1 and E2 is 7812 J, and that will melt

7812/63000 = 0.124 kg of the solid gold
