A wire from the power supply is carrying 120w of power and 24a of current. which color(s) of cable is the wire

There is no picture given so I can't be really sure what color of the cable you're referring to. However, the only relationship I can think of when the power and the current is given would be: P=IV or P = I²R, where P is power, I is current, V is voltage and R is resistance. Solving both equations:

120 W = (24 A)(Voltage)
Voltage = 5 V

120 W = (24 A)²(R)
R = 0.2083 Ω

So, i think the cable would have specification of 5 Volts and 0.2083 ohms.

Answer and explanation;

Power = voltage × current;

P = V/I

Thus;

V = P/I

= 120W/24A

= 5V

The voltage is therefore; 5 volts

The wire color is either Red or White.

The drawing shows a side view of a swimming pool. The pressure at the surface of the water is atmospheric pressure. The pressure
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

A) To true. he pressure at the bottom of the pool decreases by exactly the same amount as the atmospheric pressure decreases

Explanation:

Let us propose the solution of this problem before seeing the final statements. The pressure increases with the depth of raposin due to the weight of water that is above the person and also the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on the entire pool, the equation describing this process is

    P =P_{atm} + ρ g y

Where P_{atm} is the atmospheric pressure, ρ  the water density, and 'y' the depth measured from the surface.

Let's examine this equation in we see that the total pressure is directly proportional to the atmospheric pressure and depth

Now we can examine the claims

A) To true. State agreement or with the equation above

B) False. Pressure changes with atmospheric pressure

C) False. It's the opposite

D) False. They are directly proportional

Water is boiled at 300 kPa pressure in a pressure cooker. The cooker initially contains 3 kg of water. Once boiling started, it
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure of boiled water = 300 kPa

Mass of water = 3 kg

Time = 30 min

Dryness friction of water = 0.5

Suppose, what is the average rate of energy transfer to the cooker?

We know that,

The specific enthalpy of evaporate at 300 kPa pressure

h_{f}=561.47\ kJ/kg

h_{fg}=2163.8\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at initial state

h_{1}=h_{f}

h_{1}=561.47\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at final state

Using formula of enthalpy

h_{2}=h_{f}+xh_{fg}

Put the value into the formula

h_{2}=561.47+0.5\times2163.8

h_{2}=1643.37\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the rate of energy transfer to the cooker

Using formula of rate of energy

Q=\dfrac{m(h_{2}-h_{1})}{t}

Put the value into the formula

Q=\dfrac{3\times(1643.37-561.47)}{30\times60}

Q=1.80\ kW

Hence, The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

In the sport of curling, large smooth stones are slid across an ice court to land on a target. Sometimes the stones need to move
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

To increase kinetic friction, the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited.

To reduce kinetic friction. increase the amount of fine water droplets during pregame preparation and sweeping in front of the curling stones.

Explanation:

In curling sports, since the ice sheets are flat, the friction on the stone would be too high and the large smooth stone would not travel half as far. Thus controlling the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited pregame is necessary to increase friction.

On the other hand, reducing ice kinetic friction involves two ways. The first way is adding bumps to the ice which is known as pebbling. Fine water droplets are sprayed onto the flat ice surface. These droplets freeze into small "pebbles", which the curling stones "ride" on as they slide down the ice. This increases contact pressure which lowers the friction of the stone with the ice. As a result, the stones travel farther, and curl less.  

The second way to reduce the kinetic friction is sweeping in front of the large smooth stone. The sweeping action quickly heats and melts the pebbles on the ice leaving a film of water. This film reduces the friction between the stone and ice.
