How does the work needed to lift an object and the gravitational potential energy of the object compare?

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.

When you hold a rectangular object, how does the area of the side that is resting on your hand affect the pressure and the force that the object exerts?

A2.50 × 105 w motor is used for 26.4 s to pull a boat straight toward shore. how far does the boat move toward shore if a force of 4.20 × 104 n is applied by the motor?
