Its wintertime and you are in need of portable electrical heater for your room and you are comparing two different products. The first heater has metal grills made of aluminum and has dimensions of 0.75 [m] x 0.05 [m] x 0.01 [m] while the second heater has metal grills made of iron and has dimensions of 1.00 [m] x 0.03 [m] x 0.01 [m]. You wish to heat your room from 10 degrees Celsius to a nice toasty 28 degrees Celsius and your wall outlet provides 120 [V].
A)What is the resistance of the aluminum and iron heater at 28 degrees Celsius?
B)What is the current for the aluminum and iron heater operating at 28 degrees Celsius?
C)If you wish to operate your heater for 4 hours and the cost of electricity is $0.12 per kilowatt-hour, which heater has cheaper operational costs?

- A deep-sea diver is suspended beneath the surface of Loch Ness by a cable of length h= 100 mthat is attached to a boat on the surface (Figure 1). The diver and his suit have a total mass of m= 120 kgand a volume of V= 7.70×10−2m3. The cable has a diameter of 1.85 cmand a linear mass density of μ= 1.19 kg/m. The diver thinks he sees something moving in the murky depths and jerks the end of the cable back and forth to send transverse waves up the cable as a signal to his companions in the boat.

How much force did you apply on the tape? The exfoliation strength of graphene is 21.9 × 106 N/m² Таре Таре Таре Side view (magnified) Top viewarrow_forward
- A spherical shell has an outside radius of 2.60 cm and an inside radius of a. The shell wall has uniform thickness and is made of a material with density 4.70 g/cm3. The space inside the shell is filled with a liquid having a density of 1.23 g/cm3. (a) Find the mass m of the sphere, including its contents, as a function of a. (b) For what value of the variable a does m have its maximum possible value? (c) What is this maximum mass? (d) Explain whether the value from part (c) agrees with the result of a direct calculation of the mass of a solid sphere of uniform density made of the same material as the shell. (e) What If?

Many of its clients seek out its specialized products. Recycled rubber can be added to asphalt mixture to reduce road noise which appeals to environmentally conscious clients. However the viscosity (resistance of flow) must be maintained within very tight limits otherwise it may be too thick or too watery. The goal is a viscosity of 3200. During the manufacturing of each batch of asphalt, the quality control specialists takes 15 samples of the material and tests the viscosity. This also ensures the batch has uniform viscosity.
